Mon, 31 May 2010 00:00:00 EDThttp://www.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?pid=23571113&containerId=AU3054105Shttp://www.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?pid=23571113&containerId=AU3054105SThis IDC study compares and contrasts the performance of Australia's four mobile broadband (MBB) networks, based on 2,000 independent tests carried out over a nine-month period. This study includes an outlook of the market into 2010 and beyond, along with key drivers for the continued growth of mobile broadband. "In 2009, we saw performance of mobile broadband networks lift significantly, by an average of 68%, with an ongoing strong uptake in subscriptions. Demand for mobile broadband will remain strong moving forward, as users discover the flexibility of mobile Internet connectivity from almost anywhere," says Mark Novosel, market analyst, Telecommunications, IDC Australia.

Also examined is the Australian MBB market from a subscriber perspective, looking at the distribution of subscribers across each network, along with a forecast view of MBB. This study includes an outlook of the market into 2010 and beyond, along with key drivers for the continued growth of MBB. "In 2009, we saw the Australian mobile broadband market maturing, with subscribers soaring by more than 80% and carriers broadening the range of plans on offer. Entry-level plans fell in price by an average of 25% in 2009 to become more affordable; however, at the high end, changes were less significant," says Mark Novosel, market analyst, Telecommunications, IDC Australia.

While the Japan security product market slows down due to the economic recession, the security service market is doing well. Since users sign up for security system management contracts on a yearly basis, the continued use of services contributes to the stable growth of the market. "Demand for implementation of new products will be low in 2009 due to the economic recession. Security system management services will enjoy stable growth, but they will eventually be commoditized. At the moment, cost reduction is a key factor to encourage new service implementation. Vendors are required to present a clear logic on how users can reduce costs by using their services. Management without having assets through the use of cloud services and the reduction of servers through virtualization satisfy user needs at the moment. In order to fulfill such requirements in security solutions, service providers must tackle risks along new system boundaries such as on-premise and cloud as well as physical servers and virtual servers, come up with new menus, and gain user recognition," explains Hideki Hanaoka, research manager, Security, IDC Japan.

We detail the: Evolving role network communications play today and in the future Major challenges utilities face in creating a smart network communications strategy Main network domain technology area including active competing companies Management risks of network complexity and how a network convergence strategy is essential for smart grid success. According to Marcus Torchia, research manager of Intelligent Grid Strategies, "Smart grid applications have a diversity of requirements that cannot be currently met in a one-size-fits-all communications network, in light of the utopian promises that it could one day happen. And since utilities do not have a crystal ball, they need to settle on strategies that allow for maximum adaptability of past and current technology investments to future requirements. In this approach, the benefits of a converged network emerges."
