Description

This IDC study summarizes the Japan development operations (DevOps) software market's performance in 2024, and market forecast for 2025–2029 based on information collected through interviews and surveys conducted up to the end of January 2025.In 2024, many companies budgeted for projects aimed at using generative AI (GenAI) in their business and will be moving through proof of concept (POC) to a full-scale utilization phase. However, there is a significant percentage of Japan companies in which the construction and implementation of AI applications have only progressed to the POC or trial operation stage and have not yet progressed to the production phase. Many companies cite two factors that hinder the success of their AI projects: quality and improper data labeling of the required data sets, and inadequate technology and service partners. "IT suppliers should properly understand the business goals that customers want to achieve through the use of AI and use those goals as a starting point to help them build AI applications. Even after the introduction of AI applications, it is important for them to establish themselves as a strategic AI technology partner that proposes continuous improvements to data quality and model tuning, helping customers further improve their business operations and create new value," says Shinichi Kimura, research manager, Software and Services, IDC Japan.This is the English translation of the Japanese document IDC #JPJ52156525.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
