APEX's Market Opportunity

The Yankee Group forecasts the market for telecom-grade, SIP-based Application Servers will reach $4.7 billion by 2009, as they are deployed for a myriad of enhanced IP services, as well as for service mediation and other application routing functions within the IP network. Yankee Group also believes the opportunity for SIP-based Application Servers will be fully exploited by the advent of IP Multimedia Subsystems (IMS) within carrier IP core networks, as well as the emergence of robust Service Delivery Platforms within service provider's networks.
