That tends to mean carrier Ethernet service ideal for connecting advanced, distributed data centers and converged cloud-based applications globally.
Companies that will drive Ethernet WAN services growth post-2010 will be heavily dependent on transporting huge amounts of data and converged traffic including real-time/live high-definition video, and/or will be computing-intensive businesses using a less dynamic or “fixed” network architecture. These companies typically fall into specific industy verticals.
Higher education, including universities, university research centers, online education/distance learning and vocational training, is among the lead candidates.
Media and entertainment companies have been lead adopters as well.
Health care also is an area where increasing use of telepresence and telemedicine has the potential to drive exponential bandwidth growth and carrier Ethernet purchases.
.
Finally, the U.S. federal government tends to have needs for telepresence, collaboration, high-performance computing and data center access as well. These include the need to link numerous national (or international) sites, small communities, and eventually even geographically remote sites (and mobile and remote workers) while maintaining secure network connections.
Those verticals will not be the only logical candidates for further adoption of carrier Ethernet services, but will disproportionately represent top prospects.
