The US managed services market will grow at a
compounded rate of 10 percent over the next five years as growth continues
across all segments of the managed services value chain, says a new market study
from Insight Research. The report
notes that in today’s sophisticated communications environment, full time
managed service professionals are in the best position to assist enterprises to
realize the full potential of IP networking. IP’s vast array of capabilities
greatly increases management complexity. The study notes that revenues
associated with the managed services market will grow from $28.6 billion in 2007
to nearly $47 billion in 2012.
Insight’s
newly-released market analysis report,
Managed Services in an IP World: New Opportunities for Wireless and Wired
Networks 2007 - 2012 , contends that carriers, service providers,
equipment vendors, systems integrators, and specialist companies will all
participate in the growth opportunities provided by this market.
The study differentiates among four managed service
segments: managed data center services, managed infrastructure, managed LAN
services, and managed WAN services. In addition to the revenue forecasts for
these market segments, forecasts are provided for various market subdivisions,
including managed IP VPNs, managed security services, managed VoIP, LAN
extensions, WLAN extensions, managed hosting and storage, and a number of other
significant areas within the managed services domain. The report also provides Insight’s
survey of outsourced managed LAN, managed WAN, disaster recovery and storage
management services by vertical industry.
“Because they can offer around-the-clock monitoring
of network performance, improved application performance, and predictable
service levels, managed service providers are in a unique position to expand
their business in an effort to address the growth of this market,” says Robert
Rosenberg, Insight’s president.
“The most significant driver may well be the growth in the number of business
locations or endpoints that connect to each other across a WAN. When you compare
the growth of establishments to the growth of managed network connections, the
increasing need for managed services is unmistakable.”
