Description

This IDC study provides market forecasts and prospects for the Japan enterprise network equipment market, which consists of enterprise Ethernet switches, enterprise routers, and enterprise wireless LAN devices, for the years 2025–2029, in addition to the actual results for 2024. Although there were concerns about a backlash from the high demand up to the previous year, 2024 maintained positive growth. From 2025 onward, it is predicted that a moderate but stable growth trend will continue, with new factors such as investment in Ethernet switches in AI datacenters."For Japan network equipment vendors targeting Japan companies, there is no doubt that the NEXT GIGA, which is the second phase of the GIGA School Initiative, represents a significant business opportunity. There are still many unclear aspects to NEXT GIGA, and as it is expected to be a longer-term project than the first phase, the key to success in the NEXT GIGA business will be to identify one's own business opportunities, select appropriate target customers, and make accurate proposals. The first step is to collect as many challenges as possible from the network environment introduced in the first phase, and carefully present solutions using our own solutions," says Kenichi Kusano, senior research director at IDC JapanThis is the English translation of the Japanese document IDC #JPJ52160025.

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.
