Book Description
This IDC study, Israel Commercial Systems and Servers 2004-2008 Forecast and 2003 Vendor Shares, reviews and analyzes the market for computer systems, servers, and workstations in Israel in 2003, with data broken down by vendor, processor technology, and operating system. The data is further divided into ten price bands. The report also provides detailed forecasts of market size through 2008. The market sizing and forecasts were developed from interviews with buyers of systems, servers and workstations, and suppliers of IT products. Additionally, the analysis of the commercial systems and server market should help answer the following key market questions:
- What are the defining characteristics of the commercial systems and server market in Israel?
- How will current and future economic conditions likely affect this market's development?
- What are the areas of highest penetration and growth potential within the server market by operating system, price band, and CPU type?
- How is the global rivalry between Microsoft's NT Server and Unix being played out in the Israeli market? Where does Linux stand?
- Can vendors of proprietary environments capture new applications and growth on their platforms?
- What application segments are driving growth and what platforms are best positioned to gain in this evolving market?
- Who is gaining share in the Israeli server market?
- Where are the greatest opportunities for future growth?
"The impact of the present crisis on the Israeli server market will be long-term. Management pressures on IT departments to do more with less have had an impact, and such requirements have become a standard of the local IT industry. Long-lasting industry "truths" concerning best-of-breed equipment and solutions have been challenged by price and functionality concerns. Managers of information systems are now looking for the cheapest way to address functionality requirements." - Gideon Lopez, Research Manager, IDC Israel
