Cambridge, MA, May 14, 2008 — Pyramid Research expects that IMS standards will reach a pivotal level of stability sometime in 2009, and that IMS release 7 and 8 will mark the first stage in this process. The findings come from Pyramid’s latest report, IMS Market Opportunities: From Standardization to Implementation.
“As IMS standards stabilize with these two releases, vendors will have at their disposal a much more actionable set of product requirements to build to, giving service providers more confidence in designing networks that can support both their immediate service needs and those of the future,” comments Leslie Arathoon, VP of Research at Pyramid Research and coauthor of the report.
The report continues to conclude that these service needs, and the long-term strategies that underlie them, will ultimately drive IMS sales. This in turn will spur a wave of new products and product revisions between 2009 and 2010 that will remove the lion’s share of the service providers’ barriers to implementation.
Published on April 24, IMS Market Opportunities analyzes the current status of IMS as well as of the enabling business and content. It allows reader to asses, when IMS standards development will reach a level that encourages significant adoption, when the adoption drivers be strong enough to create the momentum IMS needs, the issues that stand in the way of a mature set of IMS standards and how the various industry bodies are dealing with the challenges.
