The worldwide software market underwent very strong revenue growth from $231.1 billion in 2006 to $262.7 billion in 2007, an annual increase of 13.7%. However, from 2007 to 2012, the projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is a more modest 7.7%. IDC believes that:

! The 2007 growth was in part due to the weakness of the U.S. dollar against other major currencies.

! The software industry is maturing and consolidating. This phenomenon continued in 2007 and will do so in the future.

! Emerging market drivers such as Eureka 2.0, software appliances, service-oriented architecture (SOA), and virtualization will provide growth opportunities even in the face of macroeconomic uncertainties and volatility.

! Successful software vendors will be those that can best adapt their technologies and business models to the continually changing dynamics of the marketplace.

The Packaged Software Market in 2007

Worldwide revenue increased from $231.1 billion in 2006 to $262.7 billion in 2007, an annual increase of 13.7%. Figure 1 illustrates 2007 software revenue by primary market and geographic region.

Table 1 shows the 2007 revenue totals of the worldwide packaged software market by geographic region and primary market. The Americas (North America and Latin America) continued to account for over one-half (51.3%) of worldwide packaged software consumption. EMEA, aided by the strong euro, accounted over one-third (34.3%) of worldwide revenue in 2007. Asia/Pacific (including Japan) accounted for the remaining 14.4% share of worldwide software revenue in 2007.

The applications primary market continued to account for nearly one-half of worldwide packaged software revenue, with 48.6% share in 2007 (down fractionally from 48.9% in 2006). SIS captured the second-largest share of worldwide revenue at 28.5%, with AD&D contributing the remaining 22.9%.

Worldwide Software Market Drivers, 2008�2012

IDC published a number of predictions studies in late 2007 and early 2008 with analysts' views on the software market drivers for 2008 and beyond. Of course, the current macroeconomic climate, particularly but not exclusively in the United States, continues to be extremely volatile, with gasoline now over $4.00 a gallon, the ongoing weakness of the dollar, and the housing market crisis. Nevertheless, these predictions still provide important context for forecasting the software marketplace. Key predictions excerpted from these documents include:

! IT suppliers will focus on hypergrowth emerging markets: "BRIC+9" and SMB. The 2008 forecast for cooling growth in worldwide IT spending will continue to drive the industry's major players to concentrate on high-growth emerging markets, with increasing investments in two key areas:

# In emerging economies, led by the BRIC countries � and the next nine important emerging markets � all growing at two to three times the market average

# In the SMB segment, in developed and developing economies, growing at 8�10% worldwide (SMB specialists in the IT market will be prime acquisition and partnering candidates.)

! Eureka 2.0 applications will emerge that aggregate, categorize, mine, and analyze user behavior. The rising cacophony of crowds is already driving new applications that mine user behavior. As the din becomes unbearable, both users and vendors will try to make sense of too much information by looking for patterns and clues that distinguish one person or query from another. Happily for this market, business intelligence and categorization and search or matching engines become the key to discerning the differences. We dub these new applications � recommendation engines, user data mining in real time, real-time trend analysis, and personalized search results based on predicted similarities of interest and behavior � Eureka 2.0. These applications mine and harness the wisdom of crowds, based on the contextual and social aspects of information work and information exchange. Social networking services and application vendors will recognize the power of combining the information, relationships, and conversations they capture with powerful mining, clustering, matching, and recommendation engines. This combination will give end users a powerful information discovery platform that leverages trusted relationships with other people to filter and rank information.

! SOA will become more critical in forming the foundation for provisioning and consuming services. When SOA started gaining popularity some years back, many individuals and enterprises approached it (and still do) as an integration paradigm. The idea of services being provisioned and sourced anywhere to be called upon, composed, and consumed anywhere is helping drive and converge SOA activities within the world of software as a service (SaaS). IDC believes that enterprises will become even more interested in adopting SOA constructs to take advantage of services being sourced from a variety of parties, especially external services on demand. What is important to

©2008 IDC #213259 5

note is that many organizations that may have not yet jumped on the SOA bandwagon for a variety of reasons may be compelled to do so in order to best leverage such on-demand services and sourcing options. Second, many on-demand application and services providers that entered the market without following SOA architectural tenets or upholding industry standards such as Web services will be rapidly adjusting and enhancing their offerings in order to compete for customers demanding more integration and support capabilities, and to provide what is necessary to build out a rich ecosystem of partners to build out more integrated solutions and drive business their way.

! Application pairing strategies (deep vertical applications combined with best-of-breed functional applications) will become the dominant bundling strategy for reaching enterprise and midmarket customers. Last year, IDC predicted that customer demand for application software that is more ready to use would drive software vendors to offer even more specific vertical solutions as derivatives of their product suites, referred to as microverticalization. That has now become the mainstream strategy for many enterprise vendors as they have continued to develop or acquire more and deeper vertical software and intellectual capital. In addition, most enterprise vendors have released SOA-enabled versions of their applications. These two factors combined, customer demand for microvertical solutions and easier integration due to SOA capabilities, have led to a different go-to-market approach from many vendors. Instead of leading with the more "core" ERP applications in a sales situation, the approach is often to lead with the microvertical solution.

! Ecosystem owners will make content management an integral part of their stack � the next step in the natural evolution of content management to infrastructure service. Ecosystem owners have staked their claims and placed their bets over the past few years (culminating in a cascade of large acquisitions in 2006) in content management. As everyone is well aware, the lion's share of the information in the enterprise exists outside of the rows and columns of relational databases and the enterprise applications that run on top of them. Managing unstructured information � business documents; rich media such as images, audio, and video; email and other communications; and so forth � has risen to the top of the compliance agenda. In 2008, content collaboration and transactional content come to the fore in customer agendas. Aiding and abetting this is the rise of video and other rich media in the enterprise for executive communications to employees, training and certification business processes, and employee collaboration, whether via videoconferencing or via on-demand replay of captured meetings � all of which creates fresh demand for content technologies that can help classify, index, manage, and find relevant information. Vendors have already begun to lay the foundation. In 2008, loosely coupled solutions will start to morph into platforms that implement content awareness at the API and Web services levels at different tiers of the stack. It will take a few more years for a fully integrated platform for structured and unstructured information to emerge, but we'll see the outlines in 2008.

! Consolidation will continue as large IT vendors continue to extend their versions of the information access and management platform by acquiring smaller, specialized technology companies. Acquisitions in this space have

6 #213259 ©2008 IDC

often involved a fairly large vendor, such as FileNet, Cognos, Hyperion, or Stellent, being acquired by an even larger vendor, such as IBM or Oracle. The next phase for information access and analysis consolidation will shift to the acquisition of innovative start-ups by bigger players. Large software vendors will continue to extend their versions of the information access and analysis platform by acquiring smaller, specialized technology companies. These smaller vendors provide missing pieces to the larger vendors' offerings. The business model for many of these start-ups has acquisition, not world domination, as the end game.

! Business process management will be increasingly viewed as a must-have despite the gloomy economy. While many signals indicate a slower IT spending climate in 2008, that doesn't mean all software will be equally affected. IDC believes that business process management suite (BPMS) software is one area likely to experience positive, counter-cyclical growth.

! Automation will play an important role as IT organizations control costs, improve service delivery, meet compliance regulations, and manage virtual resources. Automation will play an increasingly critical role as IT organizations strive to control costs, improve service delivery, meet compliance requirements, and manage virtualized resources. Automation will range from simple tactical task-based applications to sophisticated policy-driven solutions. Expect traditional systems management software vendors to increasingly compete on several fronts, including run book automation, workload scheduling and automation, and end-to-end datacenter automation. Automated management of virtualized resources will grow as IT organizations look for automated control of increasingly dynamic infrastructures. Another area to watch is automated management of infrastructure to achieve power and cooling operating efficiencies. One outcome to watch carefully is the strong potential for increased merger and acquisition activities, particularly on the part of large companies to acquire smaller point product vendors, as the giants try to accelerate the filling out of their automation portfolios.

! IT portfolio management will provide the missing application life-cycle management link � IT governance will emerge. Key product capabilities for IT portfolio management will deepen, enabling global 2000 executives the ability to leverage quantitative input from testing, software change, and configuration management and requirements tools to evolve qualitative decision making and to better prioritize the IT project portfolio. Emerging IT governance (ITG) or the integration between IT asset portfolio management tools and IT project portfolio management tools will enable coordination across IT and operational teams to facilitate corporate planning across these key areas. Alliances between existing ITPM vendors and/or tighter integration with internally owned asset portfolio management tools will extend beyond those that have already integrated products and occur during the 2008�2010 time frame.

! System management vendors will partner with nonmanagement vendors for virtual application life-cycle management, generating industry buzz and revenue. System management vendors have partnered with application, virtualization, hardware, and services vendors for technology acquisition as well as to extend the reach of their channels to customers. What is different here is

©2008 IDC #213259 7

that these relationships will leverage the acquisition/consolidation boom in other software markets to provide a management console to leverage an end-to-end view of the service being delivered to that customer.

! Virtualization will move from a technology discussion to a broader business value discussion and will come to be known as "virtualization across the enterprise." For much of the industry, the most exciting story around virtualization software has been mostly focused on server consolidation and reducing physical footprints and the resulting hardware acquisition cost reductions, resulting in lower power and cooling costs. During 2008, watch for customers to begin upleveling their virtualization road maps from a relatively simplistic technology play to a more comprehensive and longer-term end-to-end adoption road map that will impact servers, clients, storage, and even network architectures over the next decade. Simply stated, virtualization begins a process that will extend this technology phenomenon far beyond its current general role as a tool for server consolidation. Live migration, or the ability to move virtual servers to alternate computing resources while running, is a trend that will lead virtualization platform providers to accelerate their capabilities in performance management, process automation, disaster recovery, application awareness, change and configuration management, and lab automation. This solutions-based approach will also drive deeper and tighter collaborations between hypervisor providers and ISVs, via partnerships and integration with leading vendors in the storage software, network I/O virtualization, and application market segments. Ultimately, this approach will become known as "virtualization across the enterprise" and will be seen as the foundation for true service-centric computing through the use of policy-based automation software to coordinate between the server, storage, network, and user client access devices and end-user software.

! Software appliances will move beyond an application delivery form factor and become a new medium for competitive differentiation, accomplishing previously difficult tasks such as aggregation of unused processor and storage resources. Last year, IDC predicted that software appliances would become a household word in corporate IT. We believe that prediction has, for the most part, come true. Our expectations for software appliance adoption are for basic network and Web infrastructure appliances to lead the curve, followed by network-oriented solutions such as PBX solutions, with business-oriented software appliances taking a secondary role in terms of the overall volume of adoption. Security software appliances will be a hot ticket, but an emerging new class of infrastructure software appliances will make a strong showing for themselves. These software appliances will include devices that aggregate resources that are either underutilized or totally unavailable from existing infrastructure configurations.

! Open source software will increasingly impact business decisions. Open source software is continuing to drive innovation in the application development software market and is influencing business decisions and shifting fundamental approaches to software creation. While users are now beginning to seriously address content and license management issues, vendors are evaluating OSS leverage, opportunities, and challenges. Traditional software development

8 #213259 ©2008 IDC

strategies dominate, but they are changing. Hybrid business models emerging now will evolve further and solidify over the next several years. Competing with free is always difficult. The result is declining prices in one context but potential leverage in others.

! 2008 won't be the year of the Linux desktop in the conventional sense, but the combination of new form factor client devices, client OS virtualization, and application virtualization will open the door for Linux to serve other emerging needs. 2008 won't be the year of the Linux desktop, again � at least not as in the form factor of a Windows Vista killer. However, if you look beyond the traditional PC form factor and consider deployments like client-focused software appliances, thin-client operating systems, and server-hosted client operating system deployments, or even in related form factors such as an appliance built on Linux designed to run on Intel VPro, you may just find that the year of the Linux desktop is beginning to happen. While we still don't expect any "big bang" for the entry of Linux into the client market (and let's not forget there was never any "big bang" for Linux on the server side), we do expect to see Linux on the client side continuing to gain momentum.

! Unified communications (UC) will start transforming business applications and telephony in 2008. After two years of supply-side marketing from vendors, customers will start implementing UC solutions to transform business applications and telephony in 2008. These customers will be looking to provide their users with an integrated user experience for unified messaging (email, fax, and voice messaging), online presence, instant messaging, Web audio and videoconferencing, and VoIP calling/IP telephony/call routing, and so on using a variety of PC and wireless devices. While many UC applications have been deployed individually over the past decade, gains in unified user interfaces, VoIP call control, network-delivered presence, and other advances have provided the glue to bind these applications together so that users can share, collaborate, discuss, store, search, and talk within a rich unified user experience. The transformation will begin simultaneously in two distinct areas of the organization: within the knowledge worker's communication environment and within the contact center.

See the Learn More section of this study for an extensive listing of IDC's predictions documents.

Table 2 shows a ranking of the top 100 worldwide software vendors by revenue and market share. Table 3 lists the worldwide software vendors in alphabetical order. A view of the key software vendors and their key market shares in the worldwide packaged software market by region is provided in Table 4.

©2008 IDC #213259 9

This study also includes revenue data for each of the three primary markets: AD&D, applications, and SIS. AD&D revenue is covered in Tables 5�7. Applications revenue is covered in Tables 8�10. Similarly, SIS revenue is displayed in Tables 11�13. For each of these primary markets, we provide a list of the top 50 vendors (by 2007 market share) and then list all vendors alphabetically with worldwide revenue and by geographic region.

IDC calculates market share by dividing each vendor's 2007 software revenue by the total 2007 worldwide software revenue for the market sector analyzed. Rank is also provided and based on vendors with reported software revenue. A few of the vendors in last year's study either departed from the software business (or from a specific primary market segment) or were not able to identify software revenue; the result is a dash entry for 2007 revenue and "NA" for 2006�2007 growth. Tables 5�13 are specific to primary markets rather than the total software market.

Performance of Leading Vendors in 2007

Microsoft, IBM, Oracle, SAP, Symantec, HP, EMC, CA, Siemens, and Adobe were the 10 leading vendors in the worldwide software market in 2007. There was no change in ranking from 2006 for these leading vendors. Collectively, these 10 leading vendors account for 45.7% of total worldwide packaged software revenue. Additionally:

! It is important to note that the 2006 rankings are based on Table 2 in this study, not on what was published last year, because divestitures, mergers and acquisitions, and other updated information invalidate comparisons using the 2006 data from previous studies.

! To improve consistency between the Worldwide Software Market Forecaster database (the source of the data contained within this study) and IDC regional software trackers, IDC has removed all security hardware appliance revenue from the Worldwide Software Market Forecaster database (revenue that was previously included). Security appliance revenue will continue to be tracked in IDC's Security Appliance Tracker and in selected other worldwide reports. This adjustment had the biggest impact on the secure content and threat management market, where approximately 40% of total revenue in 2007 was related to security appliances.

! See Appendix A for information regarding the treatment and impact of currency exchange rates on the data contained in this study.

Competitive Market Maps

The Competitive Market Map is an IDC tool for evaluating the competitive position of software vendors in an increasingly complex market. The CMM is a tool that permits quantitative competitive analysis based on four variables: size, scope, momentum, and reliance. The definitions of these variables are contained in Appendix C.

10 #213259 ©2008 IDC

Competitive Market Maps including the top 10 vendors in each primary market are presented in Figures 2�4. Common to all of these CMMs is the effect of market consolidation. The size of the "bubbles" for the leading one or two vendors in all three primary markets dwarf those of the rest of the vendors in the top 10. Continuing consolidation in the software industry is clearly in evidence.

Top 50 Vendors' Shares of the Worldwide Software Market by Operating Environment

Table 14 presents the top 50 software vendors worldwide by total software revenue segmented by major operating environments. For situations in which packages are licensed to multiple platforms, IDC allocates revenue to the primary server platform, thus potentially understating client-side revenue, particularly in the applications primary market.

Worldwide Performance in 2007 by Primary Market

Appl icat ion Development and Deployment

The AD&D markets include software products used for the development and deployment of applications. There are two major subdivisions of the AD&D primary market:

! Software products that full-time professional developers use to develop and deploy applications

! Data access, analysis, and delivery products that are end user�oriented tools for ad hoc data access, analysis, and reporting

In the aggregate, the worldwide AD&D software functional markets generated vendor revenue of $60.2 billion in 2007, a healthy increase of 11.7% from the 2006 total of $53.9 billion, as shown in Table 5, which also presents the top 50 AD&D vendors ranked in order of 2007 worldwide revenue. The top 50 AD&D vendors accounted for an 81.7% share of the total AD&D market in 2007, essentially unchanged from 2006. Table 6 provides a list of the leading vendors in the worldwide AD&D market in alphabetical order.

The Americas (predominantly the United States) accounts for the largest share of AD&D revenue. As shown in Table 7, 2007 revenue for the Americas region was $30.0 billion, which equates to a 49.8% share of the overall worldwide AD&D market total. EMEA was the second-largest market, with a 36.1% share in 2007, followed by Asia/Pacific at 14.1%.

Appl icat ions

Certainty of Assumption

Top 3 assumptions

Economy IDC assumes that worldwide economic growth will be slow in 2008 and marginally better in 2009. All regions are expected to see a drop in GDP growth from 2007. IDC expects the economic forecasts it uses as inputs to decline during the year and is thus assuming GDP growth of one-half of one standard deviation lower than in the Consensus Economics May 2008 poll: United States = 1.1%, eurozone = 1.5%, Japan = 1.2%, and worldwide = 2.7%. 2009 will be slightly better worldwide as developed economies pick up but emerging economies drop in delayed reaction to the developed world.

High. The economy is now a net inhibitor on IT spending.

↓↓↓↓ $$$$%

Software industry transformation

The software industry is going through a major transformation, including basic architecture (service-oriented architecture [SOA]), the way software is written (composite applications), and the way software is delivered (SaaS) and even funded (advertising based). IDC assumes that this transformation will take a decade but that it will, when done, allow for much faster and more dynamic delivery of software functionality.

High. The new software creation and delivery models should allow for a quantum increase in the ability to deliver and integrate new software functionality to ICT systems. This should increase overall spending, even as it lowers costs.

Convergence Convergence is a complex phenomenon working at many levels � convergence of the telephone network and the Internet; communications and IT technologies; consumer and enterprise technologies; and even storage, routing, and processing in the datacenter. Of these, perhaps the most overarching is the convergence of voice, video, and data communications. IDC assumes that this convergence is a permanent phenomenon and that it will pick up pace as the decade wears on. One measure is that IDC expects 1.9 billon users on the Internet and 3 billion users of the phone network by 2011. The overlap will be significant.

High. Convergence will drive new competitive dynamics, offer new applications and functions to customers, and strain the legal and regulatory systems. It will also drive increased ICT spending.

↑↑↑↑ $$$$%

Macroeconomics

Profits Consensus Economics estimates that U.S. profit growth will be negative in 2008. IDC's assumption for U.S. profit growth is -3% for 2008 and 4% for 2009. This is a far cry from 20%+ profit growth in 2006.

Moderate. Company profits will not be enough to fund ICT initiatives; new projects will require cost cutting, quick paybacks, and short implementation times.

↓↓↓↓ $$$%%

Inflation Inflation remains under control. Consensus Economics' January 2008 poll forecasts that consumer prices worldwide will rise about 3%.

Low. Low inflation keeps interest rates low and leads to more capital spending, including on ICT.

U.S. housing demand

The U.S. housing market remains in trouble, with inventories building up, average prices flat or falling, and loans harder to get. The worst of the subprime loan debacle is over, but declining equity and higher mortgage rates are hurting demand. This will continue into 2009.

Moderate. Consumer spending is over two-thirds of the U.S. economy and a major driver of exports in other countries. A falloff of consumer spending would affect ITC markets not only directly but also indirectly as enterprise customers cut back because their customers have cut back.

↓↓↓↓ $$$$%

Exchange rates Through 2007, the dollar steadily fell against major currencies (except the yen). Against a market basket of currencies representing the IT spending market, the dollar fell about 6%. Given the current budget and trade deficits, over the long term, all indications are that the dollar will continue to lose value against most currencies. For the purpose of IT forecasts, IDC assumes no major impact on the economy. There may be impacts on regional or country economies (e.g., Canada), and it will become difficult to separate true global demand for IT products and services from exchange rate�driven revenue changes.

Moderate. A stable dollar makes it easier for vendors to manage supply lines and stabilizes the prices of imports and exports.

IT governance and regulatory compliance

Compliance is still driving some IT spending, including Sarbanes-Oxley, Basel II, and HIPAA. We don't expect compliance spending to crowd out other IT initiatives; in fact, compliance record-keeping could spur initiatives in other areas as companies clean up their act. Increased attention to sound IT governance policies and compliance with regulatory requirements will drive an increased focus on storage and data management.

Moderate. Compliance and governance will have a positive impact on spending on infrastructure software that aids in the archiving, protection, and recovery of data. Compliance spending seems to be funding itself through better run business operations.

↑↑↑↑ $$$$%

Internet policy While there has been much recent news about Internet security, privacy, and overseas censorship, the policy initiative with the most potential impact is the carrier move in the United States to be allowed to charge differential pricing for Internet access and the use of the new higher-speed circuits being installed. At the moment, all current telecom bills and net-neutrality legislation seem deadlocked. Expect new ones in 2008.

Low. Legislation allowing carriers to offer different pricing and service to different sets of customers would enhance the position of large, entrenched customers and the carriers themselves while inhibiting innovation among start-ups and competitors. The Internet would bifurcate.

Technology/ service developments

Application market convergence

Several applications markets are converging, such as PLM and PPM, content management, collaboration and portals, and analytic applications with classic transaction applications across the enterprise applications board.

Moderate. In essence, buyers will get more "bang for their buck" from the convergence trend, putting pressure on pricing, and resulting in more high-value bundling. In addition, convergence will create new competition between heretofore noncompeting vendors, which will likewise result in pricing pressures. However, convergence will also create opportunities for selling converged solutions that deliver new areas of functionality to end users who did not previously have access to standalone solutions and who may become more productive as a result.

↔↔↔↔ $$$%%

Dynamic IT IDC has identified the next style of computing � dynamic IT for dynamic enterprises � as a style that dramatically increases the effectiveness of IT. Within dynamic IT are a number of important subtrends � virtualization in the datacenter, data federation, software as a service, and composite and rule-based applications. IDC assumes the transition to dynamic IT will be slow and labored, but will proceed nonetheless.

Moderate. Dynamic IT, by adding coherence to the enterprise usage of IT, seems to be spurring the market; the migration to virtualization and datacenter consolidation will allow companies to deploy new applications faster. ↑↑↑↑ $$$$%

Digital marketplace The impact of the new digital marketplace can be felt in the concept of online or streaming applications, new forms of databases, Web-delivered desktop software, integration of Internet and enterprise search and other functionality, content delivery, and wireless communications. The digital marketplace will affect content delivery, commerce, datacenter architectures, advertising, marketing, telecommunications, and social interactions. It may also accelerate the consumption of ICT in emerging geographies, where more and more online populations reside.

High. Look for faster development of the SaaS model, more development of composite applications, and more directly competitive products (e.g., desktop search). Also look for rapid growth of Internet advertising revenue in emerging geographies. ↑↑↑↑ $$$%%

Service industry transformation

The rise of offshore IT services, the increased integration of IT services inside business services, and the advent of new service delivery models have created a new dynamic for IT services firms. Most firms have developed a multishoring capability and blended pricing model and are now working on ways to standardize on technologies and methodologies, deliver services online or in new form factors, invest in datacenters, and expand into business services. Despite the race to automate service creation and delivery, there is a looming talent shortage.

Moderate. These trends portend new competitive dynamics in the industry � software and online services competing with traditional IT services � as well as new thresholds for delivery. Online delivery models and operational standardization, from new technologies to remote infrastructure services, will allow faster and more efficient translation of service labor to client deliverable.

The changing IT domain

The IT domain that was once the care and feeding of mainframes has evolved over the years to include the management of enterprise applications, deployment of software and applications to the workforce, and desktop automation. Now it is evolving again to take on responsibility for the phones, building automation, sensors and RFID, and sometimes even physical security as proprietary systems migrate to TCP/IP networks. Other new applications, such as Web 2.0 and real-time business analytics, are driving IT-based applications to the point of customer or employee contact and are becoming mission critical along the way. This could increase the need for IT to be so close to the business units as to be part of them rather than merely service organizations.

Moderate. This migration will generate new staffing demands (and shortages) but create more ultimate demand for ICT.

Pervasive computing

This term refers to the proliferation of client devices and end-user or end-use devices at the network edge. IDC expects that by 2011, five times as many non-PC devices will be connected to networks as PCs � including Internet-enabled cell phones, networked entertainment and gaming devices, automobiles, building automation systems, and industrial controllers. This doesn't even count RFID tags and sensors. IDC assumes that communicating client devices will proliferate at 5�10 times the rate of PCs installed. Devices will both converge (cells phones with more functionality) and diverge (single-use devices, such as RFID readers).

High. The addition of billions of devices to the network edge will drive the need for more enterprise systems to deploy, manage, and make use of them. It will also shift the prevailing traffic from the center of the network outward to edge inward, which will affect computing and communications architectures. ↑↑↑↑ $$$$%

Green IT This is a term referring to a basket of technologies and practices designed to minimize power costs, carbon output, and hazardous waste. IDC's coverage of green IT can be found in numerous documents. The major impact of green IT will be seen in technology choices based on low power, more attention to asset disposal, and some change in vendor selection. Depending on the country, voluntary adherence to green IT principles could become law. IDC research reveals that that power and cooling expenses are growing four times as fast as new server spend, from half of the value of spending on new servers to nearly three-quarters by 2011.

Moderate. The adoption of green IT products and practices should increase demand for new IT products and services.

Demographics The aging of the workforce in the developed world and the growth of the workforce in lower-cost geographies will affect both the supply of and the demand for IT. These may be long-term trends, but they are already manifest in the globalization of the workforce and the slow ICT market growth in places like Western Europe. IDC assumes that the center of ICT supply will migrate toward Asia and Eastern Europe and, in general, will diversify. IDC also expects renewed foreign direct investment (FDI) and venture capital (VC) funding for emerging markets such as China and India. ICT consumption will migrate to large population geographies as the center of gravity for IT shifts from the PC to the mobile phone.

Moderate. We expect the continued rise of offshore IT services and business services suppliers, the diversification of services supply points to blended models, and both increased diversification of the entire ICT supply chain and risks from potential political or economic disruption.

↔↔↔↔ $$$$%

Modular IT/ risk aversion

Many firms remain cautious with regard to major IT investment/project implementation and have shifted to a more modular approach with longer periods of testing and slower rates of decision-making implementation.

Moderate. Overall demand will still fluctuate in the face of macroeconomic drivers/inhibitors, but the market should be less volatile. Large firms are taking a more long-term approach to IT than in previous years.

↔↔↔↔ $$$%%

RFID/sensors/ embedded systems

The near-term effect of RFID, sensors, and embedded systems will be negligible when it comes to IT forecasts, but the long-term (5- to 10-year) impact could be profound.

Moderate. The addition of billions of devices to the network edge will drive the need for more enterprise systems to deploy, manage, and make use of them.

↑↑↑↑ $$$$%

Storage management

Storage management functions such as virtualization, migration, policy-based classification, and data movement will continue to evolve to aid in managing increasing amounts of data.

Moderate. More intelligent and automated ways to manage data resident on storage helps to mitigate the problem of a fixed quantity of human resources and allows users to leverage tiered storage more effectively.

↑↑↑↑ $$$$%

Security Software is becoming more rather than less vulnerable. Hackers and others continue to find ways to misuse other people's software. Initially this was done by exploiting a vulnerability, but hackers are now finding ways to just misappropriate software without a vulnerability. In parallel, the attack vectors will move to focus on two new areas: application software and, of even greater concern, the hypervisor layer. Security software is more likely to be delivered as a service and/or a security appliance than it will be bought as shrink-wrapped products.

High. The ability to bury malware within other software will become a dangerous trend that will lead to improved spyware software and increase the need for software and application security tools at software development and deployment. It will also increase the need for intrusion prevention software that enforces application execution. Although great for the security market, it could have a dampening impact on software in general. It will become more difficult to segment what is pure security software, what is inherent in a security appliance, and what is delivered as a software service. This has considerable impact on licensing and maintenance and may shift some traditional operating system revenue over to pure software appliance form factors.

↑↑↑↑ $$$%%

Shift to enterprise Linux distributions

Corporate and commercial users will be drawn toward enterprise Linux distributions because of their long life cycle, ISV support, and feature/API stability. However, the single largest competitor for enterprise Linux distributions will continue to be free Linux distributions.

Moderate. Linux revenue will see continued growth, but with low ASPs compared with other server operating environments. Free Linux alternatives create a competitive environment that limits upward scalability of enterprise Linux distribution pricing.

Launch of Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008

Windows Vista's launch in January 2007 caused consumers to begin purchasing Windows Vista on new PCs � since that is what OEMs now sell. As expected, we are seeing corporate adoption following the tradition of moving slowly at first, as application compatibility testing, compliance testing, IT and end-user training, and having a critical mass of Windows Vista�ready machines installed are addressed. Windows Server 2008, expected during the first half of 2008, will be adopted on a timeline established by corporate IT practices and won't likely gain full speed until 2009.

Moderate. Over the longer term, it will be "business as usual" for the Windows product shipments. Windows Vista caused no significant long-term acceleration, and we expect no significant "bump" of acquisitions or deployment immediately following the launch of Windows Server 2008. ↔↔↔↔ $$$$$

Adoption of 64-bit client and server operating systems on x86 hardware

We believe that 64-bit computing will remain largely untapped among client devices, despite a dramatic transition over to 64-bit hardware over the next two years. Application compatibility will be the largest impediment, although for the minority of applications that need memory, disk access, or large database access, 64-bit will bring benefit. On servers, customers will begin to adopt 64-bit versions of Windows and Linux where workloads and applications are compatible, but only when the customers are convinced that supporting both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the same operating systems creates no significant new overhead. Windows Server 2008 (expected 1H08) will be an important catalyst to move Microsoft server users over to 64-bit operating systems.

High. Over the longer term, most systems will move to 64-bit operating systems and applications, but this is a very long-term transition that will likely be absorbed as part of other migrations, replacements, or consolidations that take place over the next 5�8 years.

Software complexity

Advances in standards and application infrastructure (such as SOA), while making it easier to build high-quality software, will add considerably to the complexity of resultant applications.

High. Complexity will work to the advantage of a vendor that provides an application or tools designed to reduce complexity. However, indiscriminant and uncoordinated development of standards can also have the opposite effect. Complexity will also work to the advantage of large vendors that provide a single "integrated" software stack and is one of the key forces driving industry consolidation.

Service-oriented architecture

SOA is an evolving software and systems architectural style that takes advantage of distributed, networked, and modularized capabilities that can be more discretely and flexibly applied to specific requirements. In the long term, such capabilities will pave the way for new and innovative solutions to emerge.

Moderate. Many enterprises and vendors are focusing their next generation of systems to be built following SOA constructs and are actively building out the infrastructure and fundamental cadre of services to support its use. However, for most organizations, it will take years to develop and hone these environments. Leading-edge institutions and those with IT-centric models have been first out of the gate to take advantage of SOA, while the mainstream will slowly adopt certain elements and applications that are founded on SOA as these are packaged and introduced to market in more of a solution orientation. In the short- to midterm, organizations are and will be replacing aging systems with newer SOA-based solutions, thus driving some increases in spending for specific markets; meanwhile, in the mid- to long term, the effects of consolidation of core capabilities and the flexibility in which to source specific elements incrementally will potentially depress overall IT spending in this particular market.

Standards Standards provide recognition and approval of specifications regarding data and/or process. Standards will accelerate the use of technology.

High. Standards have the potential to affect a high degree of industry change. While standards curtail competition pertaining directly to the standard, they also foster competition in areas derivative to the standard. While standards are largely perceived to be a good thing, the indiscriminant creation of standards could lead to inconsistency, thereby undermining vendor credibility.

↑↑↑↑ $$$$%

Consolidation Consolidation will focus power in the hands of a small number of very large vendors.

Moderate. Consolidation is inevitable, but it is unclear if consolidation is good or bad. Consolidation is good because it encourages broad-based vertical or horizontal integration, which tends to reduce perceived developer or end-user complexity. However, consolidation also can serve to reduce competition and therefore slow the pace of evolutionary market change. Consolidation is a relatively new phenomenon in the software industry, so while its effects are not yet well understood, industry change appears to be accelerating and innovation continues.

Application infrastructure

Applications will increasingly be based on runtime infrastructures. This application infrastructure will expand to embrace all aspects of application development, operations, and support.

High. Although RDBMS engines were the first clear example of application infrastructure, application servers cemented this trend. Application infrastructure now exists at almost every level of the "software stack" and is increasingly finding its way into hardware. While the existence of application infrastructure simplifies development, it also affords vendors another technique to facilitate lock-in. However, the benefits of application infrastructure far outweigh any risks associated with adoption.

↑↑↑↑ $$$$%

Global adoption of applications

The rapid rise of technology adoption in developing nations is proceeding at a rate far quicker than most anticipated. Prices, while not what have historically been paid in developed nations, have increased as the developing nations become more cognizant of the need to protect against piracy and as corporate financial results in those countries improve.

High. An entire new range of buyers are entering the applications markets, and this will fuel growth throughout the forecast period. Vendors that can excel at localization, support on-demand versions of their applications and even hybrid solutions (integration on-demand and on-premise), plus can update their software to include regional/country options regarding culture and regulatory/compliance features (beyond basic localization) will see an increase in sales volumes.

Enterprise workplace

Portal, collaboration and content technologies will be applied in creative new ways to render "composite" applications, but more oriented toward specific user or user role needs rather than as a prepackaged set of business processes.

High. The enterprise workplace will offer a quick route to composite applications, which will be viewed by buyers as superior solution alternatives to old-fashioned "module" applications. The flexibility of "business integration on the glass" will drive buyers to switch budgets toward these types of efforts. Though underlying module prices may decrease (since users are only using pieces of those modules), the overall spend should increase and drive interest in this new class of offerings.

Market characteristics

Hardware upgrades

Hardware spending, about 40% of total IT spending, will drive spending as well in software and services.

Moderate. The availability of Microsoft Vista and Office 2007 will start driving consumers to take advantage of many new features, including richer user interfaces, search, and security. However, corporate demand for upgrades will be tempered by normal conservative adoption curves typical for new Microsoft products, and by the decision to not include in Vista long-awaited features such as the WinFS file system/unified datastore for all application data and metadata that was intended to make it easier to search for and use information.

Internet Internet adoption is still going strong, especially in emerging economies. In the next four years, 700 million new users will come online and commerce will double. By the end of 2012, 80% of Internet users will access the Internet using mobile devices at least some of the time, and 27% of all households will have broadband access to the Internet. As people spend more time online actively participating in Web 2.0 technologies such as rich user interfaces based on Ajax and Flash, social networking and tagging, blogs and wikis, Web mashups, and on-demand services in general, information workers will start expecting Enterprise 2.0 applications in the workplace that focus on providing easy-to-use and many-to-many personalized online experiences for creating, publishing, locating, and sharing information with colleagues, customers, and partners.

Moderate. The upside is more likely than the downside because the conventional wisdom is that the Internet revolution is over. On the contrary, less than 5% of total commerce is conducted online. Analysts and pundits may underestimate the impact of the Internet because the "buzz" is gone. It will be an enabler for new markets, business models, and unified user interfaces for accessing applications and information. ↑↑↑↑ $$$$%

Commodity, volume-based solutions

Users will obtain, through volume channels, tools that offer commodity, platform-specific, and system management functionality at no or very low cost.

Moderate. Pricing pressure and margin opportunity will increase; the required functionality for system management products will rise and potentially demand more R&D budget from system management�centric vendors.

Vertical specialization by large vendors

Many large applications vendors that play in the "horizontal" markets have begun to add industry-specific offerings, through organic development and/or acquisition, to their product lines.

Moderate. This will raise the table stakes for industry-specific best-of-breed vendors to differentiate themselves. In addition, larger vendors can put pricing pressure on small vendors by offering deals involving horizontal applications, industry-specific applications, and infrastructure. This should shift revenue to larger vendors, albeit at lower prices, and augment overall large vendor market share but slow overall market growth.

Open source software (OSS)

OSS is software that is provided with its source code. Although terms of use vary depending on the type of license in effect, OSS is now beginning to impact many software markets.

Moderate. OSS today is having its biggest impact on mature markets where there is little product differentiation and product innovation has slowed significantly or ceased. OSS is an accelerator of technology use but inhibitor to price. OSS creates a downward pressure on prices where competing products are not well differentiated. The largest vendors are seeking to cast OSS as "starter kits" with limited functionality that primarily serve as "on ramps" into their high-priced products. OSS today provides an important glimpse into how software vendors will build value more around relationship and less around product.

On-demand applications

The software industry is going through a major transformation, from basic architecture (software as a service) and the way software is written (composite applications) to the way software is delivered (software as services) and even funded (advertising based). IDC assumes that this transformation will take a decade but that it will, when done, allow for much faster and more dynamic delivery of software functionality. Vendors offering infrastructureless applications, aka "on demand," will continue to garner share from license-only-oriented vendors, and this phenomena will spread to other applications beyond, for example, Web conferencing and sales automation.

Moderate. On-demand application specialists will force license-only suppliers to rethink their product delivery and licensing strategies and change their delivery to include on-demand and offer new licensing options. Most application providers already offer "hosted" choices, so that is not a major impact. Though overall, on demand may decrease prices at the outset of a new application sale, over the long run, it is not clear that vendors will recognize lower revenue, and the on-demand trends will reach new buyer audiences that could not afford classic license applications.

Consumption

Saturation The concept of saturation is a tricky one in the context of ICT. Markets that seem saturated can be "unsaturated" by new price thresholds or new functionalities that spur faster replacement or bring new users into the market. Thus IDC assumes that while all markets have a fixed number of potential adopters (people or companies), there is usually a price, feature, or solution that can drive additional spending. Also, with IT generally less than 3% of an enterprise's expenses (or a country's GDP), there is tremendous opportunity to turn internal spending on staff or business processes into external spending on ICT products and services. IDC assumes that market saturation will be a moving target that varies by submarket but, in almost all cases, can be countered.

Moderate. There will be a general increase in the amount of research and marketing devoted to segmentation; there will also be potential organizational disruption as vendors realign to better approach these segments.

↑↑↑↑ $$$$%

Buyer sentiment ICT buyers have switched from optimistic to pessimistic, as evidenced by IDC's 2007 FutureScan Surveys. There seems to be no irrational sentiment against ICT, as there was several years ago, but buyers are adjusting to economic reality.

Moderate. ICT buyer pessimism could affect spending many markets.

Market ecosystem

Channels There will be no major changes affecting IT spending; however, we expect to see the importance of the ecosystem increasing. This is the result of the increasing need of customers for solutions that integrate point products and services across vendors, as well as the need for more vertical-specific solutions. Additional impetus will come from customer peer relationships in growing communities and microvertical channels (e.g., salesforce.com's AppExchange).

Moderate. Vendors will need to examine traditional supplier channel relationships and become more scientific about ecosystem decisions. IDC assumes many will delay action until more drastic rethinking is called for. The result in the near term could slow market spending for some customer segments (e.g., enterprise) while boosting others (e.g., SMB).

Forecast for the Worldwide Software Market

Table 16 presents IDC's projections for growth in the worldwide software market for 2008�2012 by primary market and geographic region. As shown in Figure 5, IDC expects steady growth in each of the primary markets throughout the forecast period, with a 2007�2012 CAGR of 7.7%. Figure 6 shows that IDC expects all three geographic regions will contribute to the growth of worldwide software market revenue.

Tables 17�19 highlight shifts in the revenue distribution by operating environment over the forecast period in each of the three primary markets. For packaged software as a whole, 32-bit and 64-bit Windows will continue as the leading operating environment, with a CAGR of 10.0% from 2007 to 2012, and reach $218.5 billion in revenue and a 57.3% market share by the end of the forecast period. Unix growth will continue to slow, with a CAGR of 4.7%, but will still remain solidly in second place, with a 22.1% market share in 2012 (down from 25.4% in 2007). Mainframe revenue is projected to continue to slowly decline over the forecast period (CAGR of -1.3%), and market share will decline to 6.0% by 2012 from 9.3% in 2007. Linux and other open source will continue to experience the largest growth, with a CAGR of 29.4%. By 2012, open source operating environments will attain a 8.9% market share (up from 3.6% in 2007).

A five-year forecast (2007�2011) was last published for the worldwide packaged software market in Worldwide Software 2007�2011 Forecast Summary (IDC #207829, July 2007). Table 20 compares the forecast published in that document with the current forecast in terms of regional and worldwide revenue and worldwide annual growth rates. Figure 7 displays the same data in graphical form.

Overall, 2007 turned out to be a better year (measured in U.S. dollars) than we projected a year ago, in part due to currency exchange rates. This is particularly evident in EMEA because of the strength of the euro versus the U.S. dollar.

The IDC software market sizing and forecasts are presented in terms of packaged software revenue. IDC uses the term packaged software to distinguish commercially available software from custom software, not to imply that the software must be shrink-wrapped or otherwise provided via physical media. Packaged software is programs or codesets of any type commercially available through sale, lease, rental, or as a service. Packaged software revenue typically includes fees for initial and continued right-to-use packaged software licenses. These fees may include, as part of the license contract, access to product support and/or other services that are inseparable from the right-to-use license fee structure, or this support may be priced separately. Upgrades may be included in the continuing right of use or may be priced separately. All of the above are counted by IDC as packaged software revenue.

Packaged software revenue excludes service revenue derived from training, consulting, and system integration that is separate (or unbundled) from the right-to-use license but does include the implicit value of software included in a service that offers software functionality by a different pricing scheme. It is the total packaged software revenue that is further allocated to markets, geographic areas, and operating environments.

The market forecast and analysis methodology incorporates information from five different but interrelated sources, as follows:

! Reported and observed trends and financial activity. This study incorporates reported and observed trends and financial activity in 2007 as of the end of April 2008, including reported revenue data for public companies trading on North American stock exchanges (full-calendar-year 2007 data in nearly all cases).

! IDC's Software Census interviews. IDC interviews all significant market participants to determine product revenue, revenue demographics, pricing, and other relevant information.

! Product briefings, press releases, and other publicly available information. IDC's software analysts around the world meet with hundreds of software vendors each year. These briefings provide an opportunity to review current and future business and product strategies, revenue, shipments, customer bases, target markets, and other key product and competitive information.

! Vendor financial statements and related filings. Although many software vendors are privately held and choose to limit financial disclosures, information from publicly held companies provides a significant benchmark for assessing informal market estimates from private companies. IDC also builds detailed information related to private companies through in-depth analyst relationships and maintains an extensive library of financial and corporate information focused on the IT industry. We further maintain detailed revenue by product area models on more than 1,000 worldwide vendors.

! IDC demand-side research. This includes thousands of interviews with business users of software solutions annually and provides a powerful fifth perspective for assessing competitive performance and market dynamics. IDC's user strategy databases offer a compelling and consistent time-series view of industry trends and developments. Direct conversations with technology buyers provide an invaluable complement to the broader survey-based results.

Ultimately, the data presented in this study represents IDC's best estimates based on the above data sources as well as reported and observed activity by vendors and further modeling of data that we believe to be true to fill in any information gaps.

The data in this study is derived from all the above sources and entered into the Software Market Forecaster (SMF) database, which is then updated on a continuous basis as new information regarding software vendor revenues becomes available. For this reason, the reader should note carefully the "as of" date in the Methodology discussion within the "In This Study" section, near the beginning of this study, whenever making comparisons between the data in this study and the data in any other software revenue study.

Historical Market Values

Historical market values presented here are based on the market taxonomies and current U.S. dollar exchange rates existing at the time the data was originally published. For markets other than the United States, these as-published values are based on current dollar exchange rates (i.e., a different rate for each year). This means that historical market growth includes fluctuations in exchange rates, which can be significant.

Because many individual countries contribute to the regional totals, it is difficult to give precise differences between current and constant currency growth in this study. However, the scale of the difference can be understood from the movement of the U.S. dollar against major regional currencies. Customers should consider multiplying regional historical market values for each year in this study by the change in value of the U.S. dollar against representative currencies in each region (e.g., the euro in EMEA and the Japanese yen in Asia/Pacific; see Table 21). This will provide a better approximation of local market growth in each region. For instance, the value in U.S. dollars of a market in 2006 in EMEA could be adjusted upward by 9% (reducing the 2006�2007 growth), while that in Asia/Pacific could be lowered by 1% (increasing the 2006�2007 growth).

Please refer to IDC's regional research studies containing historical forecast information for multiple countries for more accurate regional market growth in local currency constant values. Note that this discussion applies only to historical market values, not forecast values, which are always presented in constant dollars, because we do not forecast exchange rates.

IDC's software research programs maintain a centralized database that includes worldwide total packaged software revenue for more than 1,000 software vendors. We do not contend that this is an exhaustive list of software providers; in fact, we believe there are more than 10,000 such suppliers. However, our database is designed to support very precise forecasting, and the suppliers in the database represent a majority of the software market's revenue overall and a majority of the revenue in each of the various segmentations it supports. The revenue is allocated to functional market segments, geographic areas, revenue types, industries, channels, and operating environments. The functional software markets defined by the taxonomy represent a collectively exhaustive and mutually exclusive view of the worldwide software marketplace.

IDC's software market taxonomy is the basis for the relational multidimensional schema of the IDC Software Market Forecaster research database. The information from this continually updated database is used by IDC's software Continuous Intelligence Services (CISs) (i.e., our subscription research services) to generate consistent packaged software market sizing and forecasts. In addition, the Worldwide Software Market Forecaster pivot table subscription products offer a comprehensive view of information included in the research database.

Total packaged software revenue is defined as license revenue plus maintenance revenue plus subscription and other software revenue. It is primarily the total packaged software revenue that is further allocated to markets, geographic areas, and operating environments. In addition to total packaged software revenue, IDC collects software license revenue, software maintenance revenue, subscription- and other software-related revenue, and total company revenue:

©2008 IDC #213259 171

! License revenue includes revenue collected for software licenses, either limited term (lease) or perpetual, that include licenses for new installations of a software product, licenses for additional software options, changes to existing licenses permitting more users or more computer system resources to be used by the licensed software (based, of course, on the original license agreement); such changes are often necessitated by server upgrades or staff increases or conversions of licenses that result in incremental additional revenue such as conversions from a fixed number of users or processors to a site or enterprise license.

License revenue does not include license maintenance revenue, which typically includes fees covering version upgrades, the automatic delivery of bug fixes and patches, and basic telephone support, all of which are normally delivered during a fixed, renewable term of service.

! Maintenance revenue consists of fees charged for continuous improvement of the software by repairing known faults and errors and/or enhancing and updating the product, as well as for technical support.

! Subscription/other software revenue consists of fees to use software products and to receive maintenance and support for those software products for a limited period of time. Subscriptions consist of bundled software and services where the fair value of the license fee is not separately determinable from maintenance/support. This category also includes software lease or rental revenue (often, but not exclusively, applied to mainframe software).

What Is Packaged Software?

How does IDC identify the companies it measures and the resulting value of the markets? Our objective is to define companies and markets that are relevant for market research purposes � not for legal or accounting purposes nor simply for publishing historic lists. Clearly, many companies have software and other types of business units; this taxonomy is not about deciding on the relative strengths of these business units and applying a single label to the entire company.

The question therefore is, When does a company market and deploy software that should be counted as such for market research purposes?

IDC uses the term packaged software to distinguish commercially available software from custom software, not to imply that the software must be shrink-wrapped or otherwise provided via physical media. Packaged software is programs or codesets of any type commercially available through sale, lease, or rental, or as a service. Packaged software revenue typically includes fees for initial and continued right-to-use packaged software licenses. These fees may include, as part of the license contract, access to product support and/or other services that are inseparable from the right-to-use license fee structure, or this support may be priced separately. Upgrades may be included in the continuing right of use or may be priced separately. All of the above are counted by IDC as packaged software revenue.

172 #213259 ©2008 IDC

Packaged software revenue excludes service revenue derived from training, consulting, and systems integration that is separate (or unbundled) from the right-to-use license but does include the implicit value of software included in a service that offers software functionality by a different pricing scheme (as described directly below in more detail).

Increasingly, packaged software is also being marketed and deployed on a subscription and transaction basis, as well as via other arrangements (e.g., for "free" with the packaged software's "owner" taking a percentage of the revenue enabled by the software as implicit "product" revenue), some of which do not involve a license. Software has also long been available for lease or rent, typically on mainframes. Furthermore, we must not be limited by accounting directives (such as those released by AICPA and FASB) because this would neglect to count large segments of software markets in a way that accurately reflects market dynamics and future opportunity.

IDC's Software Market Forecaster research database includes revenue from a company if the company competes in a packaged software market defined in the taxonomy. From the market research standpoint, this is the most important question. Software revenue is defined in terms of two types of offerings from the viewpoint of the customer:

! The market for software code of a given functionality sold as such, typically via a perpetual license

! The market for software code bundled and marketed in another way (e.g., an application service) that competes with perpetually licensed software products

To be classified as packaged software revenue attributed to a company in the Software Market Forecaster research database, all of the following have to be true:

! Ownership of intellectual property. Application service providers (ASPs) that do not own the software code are not software vendors but channels for software vendors. However, some vendors own the code and also provide an ASP offering. In this case, IDC estimates a value for the software provided in that manner. However, in the case of packaged open source software (where there is no "owner" of the intellectual property), revenue is attributed to the distributor.

! Product is replicated. Software companies assemble a package of code from components and "sell" multiple copies in a one-to-many business model. The software product is replicated to support that model. Even though it may be customized as it is being installed, when the customization capability is an attribute built into the code, it is still considered replicated. Value-added resellers (VARs) do customization to packaged software, often on a one-to-one basis. In this case, VARs are a channel for the software. When a company takes code and adds its own changes and sells the resulting package substantially as changed to many customers, it is � in turn � an ISV that resells or OEMs components and adds value. (In these cases, IDC estimates the pass-through revenue and deducts it from the reseller and attributes it to the original owner of the intellectual property so as not to double count revenue and artificially inflate the size of the software market.)

©2008 IDC #213259 173

! Competitive domain includes packaged software companies that license intellectual property rights to functionally similar software code. There are companies that offer to their customers packaged software functionality not via a right-to-use license but as a "service" that is wholly or partially based on software functionality. In this case, the question becomes, Does the company compete with packaged software companies that provide the same functionality? If so, a significant part of the basis of competition is the functionality of the software. Thus, there is a software component of the service company's revenue stream, and the value of the software must be "implicitly derived" or "attributed" and subtracted from the commingled revenue stream. Counting becomes difficult if the commingled product never has had a history of standalone software sales, and thus there is no requirement (from accounting rules) for calling out the revenue on the income statement. This accounting rule does not change the market dynamics � as far as the customer is concerned, services with the same functionality are available as substitutes for licensed software products, and IDC must account for this in our estimate of the size of the software market. This procedure has been used by IDC in the operating system market for many years when operating system revenue is bundled with hardware platforms. The operating system is an important part of the value of the competitive hardware offering. Software vendors sometimes do not offer the same functionality in standalone form.

General Functional Market Definitions

! The worldwide software market includes all packaged software revenue across all functional markets or market aggregations.

! Primary software markets are the aggregation of the functional markets for applications, AD&D, and system infrastructure. The three primary markets together make up the worldwide software market.

! Secondary software markets are 19 important aggregations that make up IDC's packaged software market taxonomy. These secondary markets are consumer applications, collaborative applications, content applications, enterprise resource management (ERM) applications, supply chain management (SCM) applications, operations and manufacturing applications, engineering applications, customer relationship management (CRM) applications, information and data management software, application development software, quality and life-cycle tools, application server middleware, integration and process automation middleware, other development tools, data access, analysis and delivery software, system and network management software, security, storage software, and system software. These markets map into the three primary markets and collectively equate to the worldwide software market.

! Functional markets are the focal point of IDC's analysis. IDC defines 81 individual functional markets for which it analyzes revenue by vendor, geography, and operating environment. Functional markets also provide the foundation and revenue base for the generation of competitive markets.

Human capital management (HCM) applications software automates business processes that cover the entire span of an employee's relationship with the corporation (as opposed to the department or group to which the employee belongs) as well as management of other human resources used by the enterprise (e.g., contingent labor, contractors, and consultants), including � increasingly � human resources employed by suppliers and customers. The center of the HCM applications suite is designed for core HR functions such as personnel records, benefits administration, and compensation. Increasingly, these functions are being delivered as employee self-service or manager self-service in order to automate record keeping and updating as well as consolidated reporting.

Globalization, flexible work rules, job mobility, and the strategic importance of people assets have forced organizations to transform their human resources systems into a more real-time, personalized, and operational intelligence business function that goes beyond the traditional view of aggregating personnel data. Core HR functions are being supplemented by extensions that form the basis of a new generation of HCM applications framework. The extensions are categorized in four major segments or submarkets: erecruiting, incentive management, performance management, and workforce management. Increasingly, core HR applications are also adding selective and functional-equivalent features of these HCM extensions to meet changing customer requirements. The following describe the functional aspects of these HCM extensions.

P r o j e c t a n d P o r t f o l i o M a n a g e m e n t

Project and portfolio management (PPM) applications are used for automating and optimizing the initiating, planning/scheduling, allocation, monitoring, and measuring of activities and resources required to complete projects. In addition, the portfolio management capabilities enable the tracking of an aggregation of project, products, programs, and/or initiatives to oversee resource allocation, for making ongoing investment and prioritization decisions, and to track risks � as part of an overall portfolio. Ultimately, PPM applications help organizations to manage the scope, time, and cost of discrete sets of related people processes (projects) on an individual and portfolio basis. IDC uses a wide definition of PPM to include the breadth of solutions that use PPM features at their core, such as construction/architectural/engineering management (AEC), asset/capital management (A/C), IT project portfolio management (ITPPM), new product development/introduction management (NPDI), professional service automation (PSA), and other industry-oriented solutions developed around the primary premise of successful "project" completion as the main business purpose.

C o n t a c t C e n t e r

Contact center applications automate functions relating to the operations of the CRM installation. These applications, although enabling in function, do not have a desktop end-user focus. Products included in this category are ACD, predictive dialing, telephony integration, and universal queuing.

Finally, within the analytic applications market, CRM-specific analytic applications have evolved. These analytic applications are included in the marketing segment of CRM because most of the applications are specifically targeted at marketing automation processes.

Application Development and Deployment Market Definitions

Informat ion and Data Management Software

Information and data management software includes products that manage a common set of defined data that is kept in one or more databases (structures of managed data shared by multiple application programs) and is driven by data definitions and rules, whether this involves single databases accessed directly by applications or distributed databases accessed by multiple applications in multiple locations. The distinguishing characteristic of all information and data management

190 #213259 ©2008 IDC

software products is that they use definitions of data structure and behavior along with rules governing their integrity, validity, security and, in some cases, alternative formats to manage the storage, movement, and manipulation of data kept in databases.

R e l a t i o n a l D a t a b a s e M a n a g e m e n t S y s t e m s

The relational database management system (RDBMS) market includes multiuser DBMSs that are primarily organized according to the relational paradigm and that use SQL as the foundational language for data definition and access. Also included are RDBMSs that have been extended to support embedded tables or other nonrelational enhancements or to include extended attribute types (such as graphical, geospatial, and audio), object-oriented formalisms (such as data encapsulation), or direct support for XML data.

N o n r e l a t i o n a l D a t a b a s e M a n a g e m e n t S y s t e m s

Nonrelational database management systems (NDBMS) are those are not based on the relational paradigm. They use a variety of other approaches to the organization, management, storage, and retrieval of data. Types of nonrelational DBMSs are as follows:

! The pre- and postrelational DBMS market includes multiuser DBMSs that are accessed using explicit navigation of the structure by the problem program and are typically organized using either the CODASYL or a proprietary structure. List-oriented, hierarchical, b-tree indexed, network, and inverted list are examples of organizations included in this category.

! Object-oriented DBMSs are designed to provide data storage and support services using an object-oriented architecture. Object DBMSs support the basic features of object-oriented development, including inheritance, polymorphism, encapsulation, and state.

! The XML database management systems market includes native XML database management systems, which decompose XML documents into data structures based on their tag structures and store them in an internal data storage facility that has been optimized for XML tag-based retrieval. Such facilities typically include the capability to convert XML documents into XML documents of other types, driven by XSL or other mapping specifications. This market also includes XML data search and retrieval facilities that are driven by XML schemas. It does not include XML-based end-user query tools, access integration middleware, or analytic applications that may happen to use XML-based access protocols. This market does not include software that simply serves as a relay or remote connection facility between programs and XML files. It also does not include software that has as its sole or principal purpose the ability to provide online XML content services for end users.

©2008 IDC #213259 191

! End-user DBMSs are single-user, database-centric solutions that reside on desktop operating environments for use by knowledge workers. These tools typically include a DBMS engine tightly integrated with a scripting language and report writer, which provides a localized environment for data management and analysis.

D a t a b a s e D e v e l o p m e n t a n d M a n a g e m e n t T o o l s

Database development and management tools are used to develop, load, reload, reorganize, recover, or otherwise manage and optimize databases, and to maintain replica databases for either recovery, performance, or availability purposes. This category also includes database-specific accelerators, SQL optimization tools, and other database utilities. Types of database development and management tools include:

! Database tuning and monitoring tools. Software used by DBAs to monitor the performance of databases, detect problems in database operations, perform routine change operations to the database, and improve database operation by reallocating storage, reindexing the database, and so on. (Note that when database monitoring software is incorporated in general system monitoring products, its revenue is reported under performance management software.)

! SQL authoring tools. Software used by DBAs and developers to build efficient SQL calls to access and manipulate data from within programs and reports

! SQL optimization and analysis tools. Software used by DBAs and developers to correct defects in SQL and to improve SQL performance

! Database replication software. Software used for maintaining an exact copy of a live database, typically for recoverability, high-availability, or nonstop maintenance purposes

! Database archiving software. Software used to build and maintain archives of databases, often allowing transparent access to archived data, preserving original schema information about archived data and intelligence for selecting referentially complete subsets of data for archiving (Such products also can be used to create referentially complete subsets of databases for populating subset or test databases as well.)

D a t a I n t e g r a t i o n a n d A c c e s s S o f t w a r e

Data integration and access software brings together data sets for use by other software or for presentation to end users and also enables access of applications to databases without requiring a direct API connection. The purpose of data integration is to ensure the consistency of information where there is a logical overlap of the information contents of two or more discrete systems. To achieve a total solution, data integration software employs a wide range of technologies, including, but not limited to, data profiling; data quality; extract, transform, and load (ETL); semantic mediation; and associated metadata management. Data access is enabled by data connectivity software (which includes data connectors and connectivity drivers, and also federated data access software).

192 #213259 ©2008 IDC

Data integration software may be used in a wide variety of functions. The most common is data warehousing, but other uses include enterprise information integration, data replication, data movement, and data synchronization, to name a few. Data integration may be deployed and executed as batch processes, typical for data warehouses, or in near-real-time modes for data synchronization or dedicated operational data stores. More challenging applications are integrating data from disparate, distributed data sources, including flat files, relational databases, XML files, and legacy applications, and the proprietary data sources associated with packaged applications from vendors such as SAP and Oracle.

The data integration and access software market includes the following submarkets:

! Data movement software comprises two subgroups: ETL and database synchronization (or real-time data movement) software. ETL software selectively draws data from source databases, transforms it into a common format, merges it according to rules governing possible collisions, and loads it into a target. This software normally runs in batch but may also be invoked dynamically in what vendors refer to as "real time" functionality. Such software actively moves data among correspondent databases driven by metadata that defines interrelationships among the data managed by those databases. The software performs transformations, routes the data to the target, and inserts the data. It normally either features a runtime environment or operates by generating the program code that does the extracting, transforming, routing of the data, and updating of the target.

! Data quality, profiling, and cleansing software includes products used to identify errors or inconsistencies in data, to normalize data formats, to infer update rules from changes in data, to match data entries with known values, and for other activities involved in ensuring the validity and consistency of data on the one hand, or schematic details of data not incorporated in the database catalog on the other. Such activities are normally associated with data integration tasks such as data merges and federated joins, but may also be used to monitor the quality of data in the database.

! Data connectivity software is used to establish connections between users or applications and databases without requiring an API or hard-coded database interface. It includes ODBC and JDBC drivers and database adapters.

! Federated database software permits the access of multiple databases as if they were one database. Most are read only, but some provide update capabilities. Virtual database products are similar, but offer full schema management coordinated with the source database schemas to create a complete database environment that sits atop multiple physical databases.

! Data integration suites blend functionality from several of the submarkets listed above and are offered as singly priced products or product suites. They generally include data quality, data movement, transformation (a subset of ETL), and some federated data access capability, along with design and management tools.

©2008 IDC #213259 193

! Metadata definition and management software products are specifically designed to model, capture, and maintain IT metadata that is associated with application development or deployment. Standalone products in this category have, as their main feature, the definition or management of metadata, which may include graphical modeling capabilities, categorization and ontological relationship mapping, search, metadata extraction from database catalogs or other such sources, and code generation capability.

Appl icat ion Development Software

The application development software markets include software, tools, and development environments used by developers, business analysts, and other professionals to create both Web-based and traditional applications. Third-generation languages (3GLs), unified development environments, business rules engines, model-driven development software, and Web site design and development tools are included. Application development software also encompasses markets pertaining to component-based development and includes the specific markets discussed in the following sections.

U n i f i e d D e v e l o p m e n t E n v i r o n m e n t s

The unified development environment (UDE) market represents the convergence and integration of interactive development environments with visual interfaces as well as rapid application development tools and environments, higher-level languages (including 4GLs), and component-based development (CBD). It also includes the tools that help automate various aspects of developing applications from components and within component framework environments.

The unified development environment market does not include tools whose primary function is to support formalized modeling and business rules methodologies that assist in generating application requirements, data definitions, and programming specifications.

Unified development environments are those environments and/or tools that explicitly use, integrate, or combine the abstract benefits of technologies and features from 4GL, RAD, CBD, and visual interfaces as part of the development environment. This functional market includes:

! 4GL/RAD tools. 4GL/RAD tools are nonprocedural, higher-level language-based tools used by professional programmers to build applications. To be considered a 4GL, a tool must provide a higher level of abstraction than a 3GL, afford dictionary-based application development, and perform semantic consistency checking.

! Legacy 4GL tools. Legacy 4GLs are defined as early abstracted development environments that were marketed before the advent of visual programming interfaces. Despite the antiquated nature of these environments, many remain in use primarily to address mission-critical business functions.

194 #213259 ©2008 IDC

! Component-based development tools, including component construction and assembly tools. Component-based development, construction, and assembly tools are primarily used for the construction of software components and/or the assembly of software components into larger components, services, or applications.

! Component frameworks. Some companies package components in the form of an open architecture component technology, often referred to as frameworks.

! Composite development and assembly platforms. Composite development and assembly platforms include technologies that facilitate the construction of composite services or composite applications that are highly standards compliant. These technologies are characterized by a contextual configuration-based approach to development. Some of the tools designed to address mashup configurations are included in this category.

T h i r d - G e n e r a t i o n L a n g u a g e T o o l s

The 3GL tools market includes both emerging and traditional programming languages, such as Java, C++, COBOL, and FORTRAN. 3GL products include all third-generation (object oriented and nonobject) procedural language tools, such as edit, compile, and debug tools, that are used in the context of an integrated 3GL development environment. C++, Java, and COBOL continue to be the primary 3GL languages that developers use to produce business technology solutions.

S o f t w a r e C o n s t r u c t i o n C o m p o n e n t s

Software construction components are functionally specific software subassemblies and libraries sold apart from a programming development environment that may or may not be designed for use with a specific programming development environment. Examples include class libraries, frameworks, ActiveX controls, Java applets, JavaBeans, Enterprise JavaBeans (EJBs), DLLs, and other forms of API-specific libraries. Software components that fall into this category are intended to be used by developers to assemble applications as opposed to fully functional applications that are intended to run on their own.

B u s i n e s s R u l e s M a n a g e m e n t S y s t e m s

Business rules management systems (BRMSs) are defined as discrete systems that define, manage, and execute conditional logic in concert with other IT processes and actions. BRMSs are well known for their ability to automatically recognize the interrule relationships that evolve as rules are added or changed, thereby eliminating the need for the careful and complex rule sequencing and conflict resolution that would otherwise be necessary.

M o d e l - D r i v e n D e v e l o p m e n t S o f t w a r e

Model-driven development (MDD) software is an abstract software development process that supports the understanding and definition of objects and relationships rendered as a specification. MDD is centered around five design principles: abstraction, model centricity, implementation independence, round-trip engineering, and the automation of selected IT application and system artifacts. Model-driven

©2008 IDC #213259 195

development software encompasses four categories of modeling tools: data modeling, process modeling (typically UML based), business process modeling (often BPMN based), and simulation.

W e b S i t e D e s i g n / D e v e l o p m e n t T o o l s

Web site design and development tools provide Web site and Web page layout and design, object integration for site and page development, and the tools needed to create Web-based applications. Although HTML editing is often provided, tools in this category typically offer visual abstraction away from HTML through WYSIWYG page editors, animation and other rich media, JavaScript and/or VBScript features, Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX), simple data integration, and deployment scenarios.

Quality and L ife-Cycle Tools

Quality and life-cycle tools support the process of software development and deployment. This category includes the specific markets discussed in the following sections.

A u t o m a t e d S o f t w a r e Q u a l i t y T o o l s

Automated software quality (ASQ) tools support software unit testing, system testing, or both; they also support software quality assurance. Functions such as test specification, generation, execution, results analysis, and "bug tracking," as well as test and QA management, are included in this category.

S o f t w a r e C o n f i g u r a t i o n M a n a g e m e n t T o o l s

Software configuration management (SCM) tools are used by application development organizations to provide software revision control and versioning capabilities. More sophisticated functions such as process management, change request tracking, requirements management, and distributed team development support may also be included.

Appl icat ion Server Middleware

Application server middleware is the foundation of modern applications, whether custom developed or packaged. It is also the foundation for many types of software infrastructure, such as portals, content management systems, or enterprise service buses (ESBs).

This middleware executes application logic, mediates access to data sources, and provides quality of service (QoS) to offer scalability, performance, reliability, and security to applications. Applications built on modern application server middleware are used over TCP/IP networks and are built using standard frameworks, such as Java Enterprise Edition (JEE), .NET, and Spring. Older legacy application server middleware is deployed on mainframes.

This class of middleware also offers ancillary capabilities associated with tooling for Web application configuration as well as synchronizing content for Web applications.

196 #213259 ©2008 IDC

A p p l i c a t i o n S e r v e r S o f t w a r e P l a t f o r m s

Application server software platforms (ASSPs) are middleware that host application logic and provide common services that allow the application to operate effectively. Application servers provide a common programming model, such as JEE, .NET, Spring, CICS, or CORBA, that developers use to build their application.

By using an application server, developers gain access to extensions that include connectivity between the presentation layer, network, operating system, and database as well as with other application servers as part of a distributed system. In addition, the application server offers QoS for such things as transaction processing reliability, throughput, scalability, security, and management.

ASSPs are the foundation of modern applications, whether custom developed or packaged. They are also the foundation for many types of software infrastructure, such as a portal, content management system, or certain brands of ESB.

ASSP revenue is not counted in the revenue model when it is embedded in other software. For example, when a portal is built on an application server but sold as a portal, the application server software portion is not counted in this market. However, when an ERP is purchased separately from the application server required to make it run, the ASSP revenue is counted.

Where ASSP is part of a multipurpose product, such as Microsoft Windows Server 2003, and we can determine what portion of the software is used as an ASSP, we will include that portion in ASSP revenue.

Note on virtual application server appliances: ASSPs have included the type of virtualization associated with clustering for several years, where several application servers are managed as if they were one. In addition, the opposite type of virtualization is also emerging, where one server can run multiple instances of an application server. This is similar to the virtual server paradigm popularized by VMware. A variety of Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP (LAMP) stack software appliances run on top of VMware's hypervisor. In addition, BEA offers its WebLogic Virtual Edition and Liquid VM as a virtual application server appliance.

T r a n s a c t i o n P r o c e s s i n g M o n i t o r s

Transaction processing monitors (TPMs) mediate and optimize transaction processing between clients and a mainframe database. TPMs have evolved to the point where they currently can act as application servers for legacy mainframe and client-server applications.

O t h e r A p p l i c a t i o n S e r v e r M i d d l e w a r e

Other application server middleware includes application server middleware categories not yet large enough to be considered a standalone market.

Extreme transaction processing (XTP) is an emerging software category that improves the performance of clusters of application servers through the use of virtualization, in-memory caching, transaction shaping, service-level monitoring, and provisioning.

Integrat ion and Process Automation Middleware

The integration and process automation middleware markets include tools used by developers, business analysts, and administrators to automate processes, create and deploy process-centric applications, integrate applications, exchange data between enterprises, and monitor the business and process performance of these applications and automated processes.

This middleware is deployed on premise as software implemented on servers, in appliances, and as hosted offerings fitting into the software-as-a-service (SaaS) model.

In the IDC taxonomy, there are four specific types of integration and process automation middleware, along with an "other" category that includes legacy software and integration-related middleware not yet large enough to be categorized in a standalone market:

! Business-to-business (B2B) middleware

! Enterprise service bus and connectivity middleware

! Event-driven middleware

! Process automation middleware

! Other integration and process automation middleware

B u s i n e s s - t o - B u s i n e s s M i d d l e w a r e

B2B middleware consists of software and services used to receive, route, and convert standards-based structured inter-enterprise files and messages related to transactions. In more detail:

! B2B gateway middleware is software deployed on premise used to automate and monitor the inter-enterprise exchange of data. At the heart of these platforms are conversion, translation, and data exchange�related orchestration capabilities. Additional features include:

# More generalized process automation

# Receipt and delivery of messages

# Connectivity software

# Business activity monitoring

# Reporting

# Development environment

There are strong similarities between B2B gateway platforms and other types of integration middleware. However, the strength of these platforms is in the embedded support of common standard industry models for electronic message

198 #213259 ©2008 IDC

exchange, such as electronic data interchange (EDI). In addition, they are optimized to operate at the edge between two or more enterprises, including the ability to send acknowledgements to senders once a message is received.

! EDI/VANs and B2B services are secure, private networks that receive, store, and forward structured inter-enterprise messages related to transactions. These services include customizable hosted solutions and SaaS offerings. Many of the vendors in this category also offer end-to-end managed services.

Although EDI/VANs predominantly support industries and message standards associated with the supply chain and EDI standards, B2B services include value chains in general, in particular the financial value chain using SWIFT standards.

Beyond reliable, secure delivery of messages, features include protocol conversion, message and file translation, monitoring, exception reporting, paper-to-digital conversion, and partner self-service, including Web forms for submitting transactions and documents and self-testing capabilities.

Enterprise service bus (ESB) and connectivity middleware are server software or appliances installed on premise inside a datacenter to integrate applications:

! Enterprise service bus middleware was created to support application integration for applications built on a standards-based service-oriented architecture (SOA). It operates in request-response and event-driven paradigms. Under the more common request-response model, ESBs receive service consumption requests, route the requests to the correct service provider, transform the requests to a format compatible with the service provider, wait for the results, and deliver them back to the service consumer.

In an event-driven model, ESBs receive an event, transform it, and forward it based on routing instructions managed within the ESB.

There are many types of ESBs in the market, with orientations based on the preexisting middleware that was used as the basis for the ESB. In addition, there are some ESBs that were built from the ground up to provide services-oriented routing and transformation capabilities.

! Connectivity middleware is installed on end systems to send and receive data and instructions directly from other systems and via middleware. Depending on how they are deployed, connectivity middleware � adapters and sensors � can perform transformations prior to delivering the data back to the targeted system or can transfer as is.

There are different deployment paradigms for the adapters. They can fetch or deliver data on request. They can be set up to look for new data on a scheduled basis. They also can support an event model in which a data change is automatically captured by an adapter, which generates a message that is published to message-oriented middleware (MOM).

©2008 IDC #213259 199

Most deployment platform vendors have their own collection of standard or common adapters. They tend to be bundled into the price of platform software and, therefore, are not counted in this category. This category includes the standalone purchase of connectivity middleware.

E v e n t - D r i v e n M i d d l e w a r e

Event-driven middleware is used to detect events and automatically pass them to applications, systems, and people. An event is a data or application change of state. The technologies that make up event-driven middleware are key components of an event-driven infrastructure, which is implemented to:

! Predict and detect problems or opportunities at the earliest possible moment they are identifiable

! Support automated processes to reduce cycle times and remove waste, errors, and redundancy from an enterprise's operations

! Improve the scalability and processing speeds of applications and application infrastructure.

Event-driven middleware consists of the following three types of software: message-oriented middleware (MOM), complex event processing (CEP) software, and business activity monitoring (BAM).

In essence, MOM can be considered the nervous system that listens for stimuli and informs the brain. CEP is the brain, which contains the short-term memory and executive decision-making ability to send instructions through the nervous system to the appropriate parts of the body. BAM is the eyes of an event-driven infrastructure. In more detail:

! Business activity monitoring informs users about the current status of areas in which they are interested and notifies them when thresholds are crossed that warrant attention. BAM typically is deployed as a continuously updated dashboard of key performance indicators (KPIs) that describe the metrics that are important to an individual user. There are a variety of graphical displays in which the KPIs are embedded, including standard graphs, heat maps, and process model views. There are also graphical indicators of current performance.

While BAM dashboards are typically presented in a portal, notification of out-of-bounds performance is sent out via email. In some cases, vendors are taking KPIs and their associated graphical representations and making them available as gadgets that can be displayed in a mashup.

BAM is implemented in many scenarios. In this case, we count BAM products sold as a standalone offering, which excludes the embedded BAM sold as part of a BPM suite.

! Complex event processing middleware manages descriptions of conditions and their state, correlates new events to the conditions, and tests for matches. Once matched, a new event is created and fired off to other systems listening for the event. CEP is used primarily as infrastructure for temporal (time) and spatial (location) applications.

A condition describes the relationship of two or more events to each other. These can be simple, such as calculating the impact of a change in stock price over a set time window to see whether it meets a certain threshold, or complicated, such as calculating the impact of a flight delay on all of the systems affected by that delay.

CEP products are based on different technologies, with the three most common being:

# Continuous query software that automatically runs SQL or SQL-like queries upon the receipt of new data

# Rules engines that apply new data to all the rules and rule relationships

# Software that allows users to model the condition

! When a relevant event occurs, message-oriented middleware creates a structured message containing the data of the event, the time the event was created, and metadata about the event. MOM delivers the message in the following paradigms:

# Point to point, where one sending system publishes a message directly to a receiving system for processing

# To a queue, where the message can be picked up for processing by any authorized system

# Publish and subscribe, which broadcasts messages without concern for whether the event is actually received by any system

In the latter two paradigms, each message includes metadata that describes the topic or subject of the message. Subscribers listening for that topic receive all messages that are broadcast out. When a system picks messages off of a queue, it also looks for specific message types, based on the metadata.

MOM is also capable of transforming a message to a structure that is compatible with the receiving system. Whether transformation is handled within MOM or by other integration middleware, such as an ESB, is an architectural decision made by the enterprise during system design.

Although many vendors offer commodity MOM based on the Java Message Service (JMS) standard, the standalone offerings differentiate and compete on low latency, reliability, and high throughput.

P r o c e s s A u t o m a t i o n M i d d l e w a r e

A process is the series of activities that accomplish work in a routine way. Process automation middleware is used to define a process, model it, and automate the movement of transactions through all of the necessary activities that make up the process. Process automation middleware also manages the state of work being performed within the process and identifies transactions that are not able to advance through the process' workflow. These exceptions are then handled separately, either through another structured process or through custom or nonautomated activities.

This middleware supports straight-through processing (STP), which is a method to move transactions automatically from one system to the next without manual involvement, rekeying, or input from people. STP examples include automated payment processing or trade settlements.

Process automation middleware also automates people-oriented activities that require manual steps or human decision making, such as loan approvals or bringing new employees on board. In more detail:

! A business process management suite (BPMS) includes both a model-centric development environment and a runtime server that include the following capabilities:

# Process modeling is a graphical environment to describe and document an existing process or a new process. Although not all BPMSs support standard process modeling, the emerging graphical standard to represent the process is the Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN).

In a BPMS, process modeling is central to the development environment. Increasingly, the individual activities described in the process model have presentation components, such as forms, and other properties associated to them, and one activity is wired to another within the process modeling environment.

# Rules or decision services are used when there is a need to determine where the transaction needs to go next for processing.

# Process execution is runtime server software that executes the process described in the model and maintains the state of the transaction as it advances through the process' workflow. There are differences in how BPMS products move from a model to the execution of a process as well as differences in standards supported. Some interpret; others compile. Some store a model in XML Process Definition Language (XPDL), while others store as Business Process Execution Language (BPEL). Others do neither.

# Process monitoring maintains and displays performance statistics about how the process is running. The KPIs are automatically generated within the system.

202 #213259 ©2008 IDC

# Simulation uses production data, test data, or metrics embedded in the model to run simulations to see how a process or change in process impacts process, business, and system performance. Initially, the simulation may run from assumptions built in the documentation of the model. Once a process is put into production, there is the ability to test changes using production data. Many vendors require the use of simulation to test a change made to a process before it is put into production, particularly where authorized business users make changes to the process.

# Additional BPMS capabilities include:

! Task management features that either automatically or manually assign work

! Forms, including wizards and offline and online capabilities

! Search, including the ability to find anything about work within a process as well as identify experts

! Content management capabilities, including storage and retrieval of documents

! Portal and collaboration features

! Standalone process servers have a development environment that describes an orchestration or workflow as well as a process execution environment. However, they do not have the full set of features offered by a BPMS vendor.

! Specialty straight-through-processing middleware includes many of the components of a system-centric BPMS with embedded logic tied to specific processes. It tends to be an event-driven, high-performance system created for niche areas, such as financial payment systems.

This category contains includes software products and markets not yet large enough to be covered in a standalone category. In addition, it includes some integration categories that cross multiple markets. In more detail:

! Managed file transfer software provides secure, guaranteed high-speed delivery of a file over a network. The file transfer can be from one enterprise to another or within an enterprise, across datacenters or systems. This software includes the free software that delivers files over file transfer protocol (FTP) and commercial software that offers better security, reliability, and speeds.

developers; AI and expert system builders; software development kits; code browsers; graphics toolkits and data/file conversion aids; and program memory and disk management. Additionally, this category includes remote procedure call (RPC) middleware, which is built for an application-to-application interoperability model. Applications make requests by shipping a direct call for the execution. (IDC does not provide detailed functional analysis of this market.)

IDC does not analyze the other programmer development tools and utilities collection of miscellaneous products as a separate market but does include the revenue from this "market" in the overall revenue total for completeness of application development and deployment market coverage.

Data Access , Analys is, and Del ivery Software

Data access, analysis, and delivery products are end user�oriented tools for ad hoc data access, analysis, and reporting as well as production reporting. Products in this category are most commonly used by information consumers or power users rather than by professional programmers. Examples include query, reporting, multidimensional analysis, and data mining and statistics tools. The data access, analysis, and delivery markets are defined in the following sections.

E n d - U s e r Q u e r y , R e p o r t i n g , a n d A n a l y s i s

Query, reporting, and analysis software includes ad hoc query and multidimensional analysis tools as well as dashboards and production reporting tools. Query and reporting tools are designed specifically to support ad hoc data access and report building by either IT or business users. This category does not include other application development tools that may be used for building reports but are not specifically designed for that purpose. Multidimensional analysis tools include both online analytical processing (OLAP) servers and client-side analysis tools that provide a data management environment used for modeling business problems and analyzing business data. Packaged data marts, which are preconfigured software combining data transformation, management, and access in a single package, usually with business models, are also included in this functional market.

A d v a n c e d A n a l y t i c s S o f t w a r e

Advanced analytics software includes data mining and statistical software (previously called technical data analysis). It uses technologies such as neural networks, rule induction, and clustering, among others, to discover relationships in data and make predictions that are hidden, not apparent, or too complex to be extracted using query, reporting, and multidimensional analysis software. This market also includes technical, econometric, and other mathematics-specific software that provide libraries of statistical algorithms and tests for analyzing data. Although statistics products vary in sophistication, most provide base-level functions such as frequencies, cross-tabulation, and chi square. This market also includes a specialized form of statistical software focused on functional areas such as the industrial design of experiments, clinical trial testing, exploratory data analysis, and high-volume and real-time statistical analysis.

System Infrastructure Software Market Definitions

System infrastructure software is divided into four primary categories: system and network management software, security, storage software, and system software. These categories are discussed in the following sections.

System and Network Management Software

System and network management software is used to manage all the computing resources for the end user, small business, workgroup, or enterprise, including systems, applications, and the network infrastructure. This market does not include storage management and other storage software. System and network management software is further segmented into the categories discussed in the following sections.

E v e n t A u t o m a t i o n T o o l s

Event automation tools automate the response of the systems to nonscheduled system and application events. Included are console automation products, global event management applications, and event-action engines. This category does not include automation of scheduled events.

J o b S c h e d u l i n g T o o l s

Job scheduling tools manage the flow of work on systems. This category includes batch job schedulers and workload balancing applications working at the application (rather than system) level. It does not include workload balancing applications that work at the system level (e.g., high-availability software).

O u t p u t M a n a g e m e n t T o o l s

Output management tools automate the production, distribution, and management of computer-generated information. Included are printer spoolers, fax servers, output management tools, and applications to manage the dissemination of output. The term output includes not only hardcopy devices such as printers and fax machines but also other destinations such as pagers, email, and Web pages. This category does not include workflow applications or packaged online viewing applications for specific vertical industries.

P e r f o r m a n c e M a n a g e m e n t S o f t w a r e

Performance management software is used for capacity planning, performance data collection, performance tracking, and simulation software, as well as service level-management software when applied to systems and applications. It also includes resource accounting software for resource utilization tracking and reporting and IS-specific financial management and planning.

C h a n g e a n d C o n f i g u r a t i o n M a n a g e m e n t S o f t w a r e

Change and configuration management software provides management of system and peripheral hardware and software assets but not network devices. Software for planning, tracking, and applying system hardware and software changes is also included, as is software distribution, hardware and software discovery and inventory, license management, settings and state management and auditing.

P r o b l e m M a n a g e m e n t S o f t w a r e

Problem management software tracks, records, and manages problems related to the IT infrastructure and operations. This category includes IT help desk applications and related problem determination and resolution applications. To the extent that IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) and IT service management�based solutions help in the resolutions of problems, those functions are included here as well.

N e t w o r k M a n a g e m e n t S o f t w a r e

Network management software includes solutions for managing the network components of enterprise infrastructures. It includes the two submarkets of network availability and network configuration. Further granularity on the enterprise network management market is available in the IDC Network and Service Management CIS. Continuing coverage of network service provider infrastructure management solutions, including OSS/BSS, is available in the IDC Next-Generation OSS and Billing CIS.

The products within network management often and increasingly will integrate with cross-domain infrastructure management tools such as service desks, application management, systems management, and business dashboards across multiple platforms and topologies, including data, voice, video, traditional networks, and wireless networks. Network management includes solutions that manage network availability by collecting and correlating events, service levels, alarms, response times, and performance. It also includes network configuration management products that manage, control, and audit changes to the network infrastructure. However, solutions solely for network service providers are excluded.

Secur ity

The security market includes a wide range of technologies used to improve the security of computers, information systems, Internet communications, networks, and transactions. It is used for confidentiality, integrity, privacy, and assurance. Through the use of security applications, organizations can provide security management, access control, authentication, virus protection, encryption, intrusion detection and prevention, vulnerability assessment, and perimeter defense. All these tools are designed to improve the security of an organization's networking infrastructure and help advance value-added services and capabilities.

I d e n t i t y a n d A c c e s s M a n a g e m e n t

Identity and access management is a comprehensive set of solutions used to identify users in a system (employees, customers, contractors, and so on) and control their access to resources within that system by associating user rights and restrictions with the established identity. Subcategories of the IAM market include Web single sign-on

206 #213259 ©2008 IDC

(WSSO) and federated single sign-on (FSSO); host/enterprise SSO; user provisioning, including granular authorization and policy rights; risk and entitlement management; advanced authentication software (e.g., PKI); and legacy authorization, such as RACF and ACF-2. Software licensing and authentication tokens (SLATs) are now classified as a separate subcategory within IAM. These are parallel/serial port tokens or USB keys that authorize the use of software on a particular device.

S e c u r e C o n t e n t a n d T h r e a t M a n a g e m e n t

The secure content and threat management (SCTM) market highlights the increasing unity between previously dissimilar security disciplines. SCTM products defend against viruses, spyware, spam, hackers, intrusions, and the unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential information. SCTM includes four specific product areas, as follows:

! Network security includes enterprise firewall/VPN products, network intrusion detection and prevention products, network antivirus products, unified threat management products, IPSec/SSL VPN products, and network access control products.

! Endpoint security includes client antivirus products, file/storage server antivirus, client antispyware products, personal firewall products, host intrusion prevention products, file/disk encryption, and endpoint information protection and control products (IPC).

! Messaging security includes antispam products, mail server antivirus, content filtering, and messaging information protection and control products.

! Web security includes Web filtering products, Web intrusion prevention products, Web antivirus products, and Web antispyware products.

S e c u r i t y a n d V u l n e r a b i l i t y M a n a g e m e n t S o f t w a r e

Security and vulnerability management is a comprehensive set of solutions that focus on allowing organizations to determine, interpret, and improve their risk posture. Products in this market include those that create, monitor, and enforce security policy; determine the configuration, structure, and attributes for a given device; perform assessments and vulnerability scanning; provide vulnerability remediation and patch management; aggregate and correlate security logs; and provide management of various security technologies from a single point of control.

O t h e r S e c u r i t y S o f t w a r e

Other security software covers emerging security functions that do not fit well into an existing category. It also includes some of the underlying security functions, such as encryption tools and algorithms, that are the basis for many security functions found in other software and hardware products. Also included in this category are products that fit a specific need but have yet to become established in the marketplace. Products currently in this category will either grow into their own categories or eventually be incorporated into the other market segments.

©2008 IDC #213259 207

For 2008, areas covered by other security software include, but are not restricted to, encryption toolkits, file encryption products, database security, storage security, standalone VPN and VPN clients, wireless security, Web services security, and secure operating systems. Note that the products covered here (especially for wireless and Web services) are only those that do not qualify for one of the more established categories.

Storage Software

Storage software manages and assures the accessibility, availability, and performance of information stored on physical storage media. This category does not include operating systems or subsystems. The storage software secondary market is broken down into eight functional software markets, as described in the following sections.

D a t a P r o t e c t i o n a n d R e c o v e r y S o f t w a r e

Data protection and recovery software is focused on protection, restoration, and recovery of data in the event of physical or logical errors. Included within the data protection and recovery market are data protection, continuous data protection (CDP), bare metal restore, virtual tape library (VTL), and backup/recovery reporting products:

! Data protection software and add-on modules schedule a point-in-time copy of a defined data set to tape, disk, or optical devices and are used to recover part or all of the data set if needed because of logical or physical error or site disaster. Included are library and tape media management tools. Although tape is the most common backup medium, many products support backup to disk, and some take full advantage of the increased recovery performance associated with direct-access disk storage. Backup is often used in conjunction with snapshot and data replication software to improve data protection performance. If using traditional tape backup products, recovering data from a backup set generally requires the initiation of a separate process.

! Continuous data protection (CDP) software, also referred to as continuous backup, pertains to products that track and save data to disk so that information can be recovered from any point in time, even minutes ago. CDP uses technology to continuously capture updates to data in real time or near real time, offering data recovery in a matter of seconds. CDP systems may be block, file, or application based and can provide fine granularities of restorable objects to highly variable recovery points.

! Bare metal restore software makes a system-level host image from the operating system up to the file system configuration on tape or disk, which is used for system-level recovery of the entire host if needed because of a physical hardware error. Backup products that have a bare metal restore module will be included under the data protection software submarket.

! Virtual tape library software presents a virtualized view of physical tape drives and media to a host, thus emulating traditional tape devices and tape formats and acting like a tape library with the performance of modern disk drives. During

208 #213259 ©2008 IDC

a VTL process, data is deposited onto disk drives just as it would be deposited onto a tape library, only faster. A virtual tape library generally consists of a virtual tape appliance or server and VTL software that emulates traditional tape devices and formats.

! Backup and recovery reporting software is designed for heterogeneous, standalone backup reporting and management across different backup applications, configurations, and locations. Reports are generated on backup environment parameters such as backup job status, tape media capacity, backup performance, and so on.

S t o r a g e R e p l i c a t i o n S o f t w a r e

Storage replication software includes software designed to create image copies of volumes or files via techniques such as clones, mirrors, and snapshots. Replication may be storage system, server, fabric, or appliance based and may occur locally or between remote sites, potentially separated by long distances. Replication and snapshot software is often used in conjunction with backup software to improve data protection performance. This market does not include database replication software that operates at the database, table, or record level. In more detail:

! Host replication software typically resides at the file system or logical volume level within the operating system and makes a point-in-time copy or snapshot of a data set to disk used for disaster recovery, testing, application development, or reporting. In recovery, replication eliminates the intermediary step of a restore process.

! System and data migration software is block-based or file-based migration software used to migrate data from one platform to another for system upgrades and technology refreshes, moving the data to a new platform.

! Fabric and appliance-based replication software makes use of intelligent switches and heterogeneous array products to provide block-level replication within the SAN. The intelligent switches have technologies that perform the volume management and replication process and eliminate the overhead on the host while providing any-to-any replication. It also includes a software component to appliance-based replication.

! Array-based replication software makes a block-based point-in-time block copy or snapshot of storage to disk used for disaster recovery, testing, application development, reporting, and other uses.

! Replication management software is used to control, monitor, and/or schedule the point-in-time copies made by the replication product. It may automate various replication tasks, such as sync, split, mount, and so on.

A r c h i v i n g S o f t w a r e

The archiving software market includes software that provides policy-based controls for copying, moving, purging (delete from primary storage), retaining (in read-only fashion for a defined period), and deleting (delete from secondary storage) data. Some tools provide for more sophisticated functions such as content-based data

©2008 IDC #213259 209

management, indexing, and search/retrieval. Email and unstructured file archiving products are included in this market. Not included are products that perform database archiving. In more detail:

! File archiving software automates, based upon a defined policy, the migration of data to a different tier of storage and media and automatically recalls files back to primary storage when required for application or user access. File archiving software creates, based upon a defined policy, a copy of a data set or a group of files that are transported to an alternate location or committed to long- or intermediate-term storage. Original copies of the data set may be deleted when the archive is created to free primary storage space, or they may be left in place if frequent access is expected.

! Email archiving software includes specialized email archive software products that integrate with collaborative email systems through APIs to migrate email, based on policy, to a secondary archive. Included in email archiving software are functions for email retention and searching.

F i l e S y s t e m S o f t w a r e

File system software provides the organization and structure for storing and retrieving data as files, folders, and directories. Software covered in this market segment includes standalone, distributed file systems that are platform independent and the primary purpose of which is to provide access to storage. These file systems support sophisticated intersystem record and file locking capabilities. Products include clustered file systems, wide area file systems, and file virtualization.

S t o r a g e M a n a g e m e n t S o f t w a r e

! SRM and heterogeneous SAN management software is designed for heterogeneous, end-to-end discovery, topology mapping, capacity, utilization, and performance reporting, planning, monitoring, and management. It includes software modules for advanced functions such as storage provisioning, host-level reporting, file-level analytics, application and file system integration, and event management. To qualify as a storage management product, the product must provide for the management of a diverse set of storage systems, storage switches, servers, and applications. Device management tools that provide discovery and configuration of a single device type or asset are not included.

! SRM and SAN management software for homogeneous environments is designed for homogeneous, end-to-end discovery, topology mapping, capacity utilization, and performance reporting, planning, monitoring, and management. It includes software modules for advanced functions such as storage provisioning, host-level reporting, file-level analytics, application and file system integration, and event management.

! Other storage management software applications provide standalone storage management functionality such as predictive change management, performance management, problem management, capacity planning, forecasting, or SLA management.

210 #213259 ©2008 IDC

S t o r a g e I n f r a s t r u c t u r e S o f t w a r e

Storage infrastructure software includes virtualization and volume management and storage access and path management software:

! Virtualization and volume management software enables device and network-independent management of storage or data. It isolates and abstracts the internal details of storage systems and services and simplifies storage management by masking physical complexities from servers, applications, and other network resources. Such software is frequently used for pooling or aggregating storage, or to add new capabilities to available storage resources. Virtualization and volume management may be storage system, server, fabric, or appliance based, and frequently can occur simultaneously in more than one of these locations. Only software sold as a separate software product or option is included in this market.

! Access and path management software provides for storage path and access configuration, management, load balancing, and failover on path failure. Only software sold as a separate software product or option is included in the revenue for this market.

S t o r a g e D e v i c e M a n a g e m e n t S o f t w a r e

Storage device management software performs a specific set of functions for a specific, homogeneous brand or class of storage device. Device management software utilities capture basic information on the storage device and tend to support only that device or device family (not a heterogeneous management tool). The functions provided by device management software include storage device discovery, configuration, and management, with basic levels of reporting. It includes software used to control the configuration and management of disk devices, storage arrays, and networks as well as the associated utilities, element managers, and agents. This market also includes utilities for low-level disk device functions such as optimization, defragmentation, and compression.

O t h e r S t o r a g e S o f t w a r e

Other storage software covers storage software functions that do not fit well into an existing category. Also included in this category are products that fit a specific need but have yet to become established in the marketplace. Products currently in this category will either grow into their own categories or eventually be incorporated into the other market segments.

System Software

System software is the foundation of software products that collectively operate the hardware on which business applications are built. Market definitions are discussed in the following sections.

O p e r a t i n g S y s t e m s a n d S u b s y s t e m s

Operating system and subsystem software includes the machine-level instructions and general-purpose functions that control the operation and use of CPU resources (both centralized and networked). These operating systems quite often also include

©2008 IDC #213259 211

network services such as Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) for IP address assignment, distributed naming services (DNS) software (which provides a shared database of system resources and access control information), and directory service software (such as Microsoft's Active Directory), as well as other integrated network facilities such as print and file services.

A v a i l a b i l i t y a n d C l u s t e r i n g S o f t w a r e

Availability and clustering software virtualizes the system services of multiple systems so that they appear in some sense as a single computing resource. This market includes cluster managers and compute farm managers, as well as load balancing software and application virtualization software that stands between the user request and the processors or systems that are supporting applications or services. This software determines which processor or system has the most available capacity and routes the workload to that computing resource.

V i r t u a l U s e r I n t e r f a c e S o f t w a r e

Virtual user interface (VUI) software runs on servers and creates a virtual user interface within the operating system that can be delivered to a remote device via protocols such as RDP and ICA.

V i r t u a l M a c h i n e S o f t w a r e

Virtual machine software either uses low-level capabilities offered by certain hardware environments or installs a complete hardware emulation layer using software to support multiple operating environments and the related stacks of applications, application development and deployment software, and system infrastructure software. Each of the client or server operating environments is allowed to believe that it controls the entire machine, but resources are actually allocated on the basis of rules established either at the time of configuration or dynamically by related management software. Thus, operating system software and applications that were previously incompatible can share the same machine.

O t h e r S y s t e m S o f t w a r e

Other system software is infrastructure software for systems and applications (but not storage) that is not otherwise categorized. Such software is used mainly by system programmers and administrators to perform housekeeping functions and to add functions to operating systems that are not otherwise supplied. Examples include file-conversion utilities, screen drivers and fonts, remote control software, and sort utilities. This category also includes enterprise connectivity software that enables devices to exchange, modify, and/or present host-based network data.

Geographic Area Definitions

Worldwide revenue is divided by geographic area. Areas defined are Americas, Europe/Middle East/Africa (EMEA), and Asia/Pacific (AP):

! Americas includes the United States and all of its political subdivisions, Canada, and Latin America (Brazil, Venezuela, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, and Mexico).

Operating Environment Definitions

All software revenue is allocated on the basis of the underlying operating environment. The preferred method is to allocate revenue to operating environments based on where the license revenue is derived (for platform-specific licenses). An alternative method is to allocate revenue based on where the product is run (i.e., based on the percentage of executables on various platforms). Revenue may originate from traditional perpetual licensing purchases or through annual subscription or maintenance licensing. Note that operating systems producing no revenue may still be used for deployment of revenue-producing layered software that is subsequently captured in IDC's market forecasts. Operating system revenue from the emerging software appliance market is tracked as other operating systems are, with software appliance revenue allocated between the operating system and the layered software product markets (if applicable) on a proportional basis. Operating environments include the following:

! Mainframe environments include IBM's z/OS, OS/390, VSE, VM, and z/VM that run on IBM System z and zSeries hardware and other single-vendor mainframe operating systems such as those from Unisys, Amdahl, Fujitsu, and Hitachi. Single-vendor, non-Unix supercomputer, and massively parallel processor environments are also included in the mainframe category.

! i5 and OS/400 include i5, OS/400, and predecessors that operate aboard IBM 3X, AS/400, iSeries, and System i family of machines.

! Unix includes all operating systems software that is based on Unix System V, OSF/1, or Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD). This category would include products such as AIX, HP-UX, Irix, Mac OS X, SCO Open Server, SCO UnixWare, Solaris, Tru64 Unix, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and other operating systems used primarily aboard RISC-based and Intel architecture�based servers, workstations, minicomputers, and clients that are designed to run the Unix operating system. Unix-based supercomputer and massively parallel processor environments are also included in this category. Operating systems that are based on other kernels are not included, even if they have passed the Unix certification test from the Open Group. Note that non-revenue-producing versions of Unix, including Solaris 10 for x86, OpenSolaris, FreeBSD, and other nonpaid Unix derivatives, are classified as Unix operating systems for the purpose of allocating revenue-producing layered software by underlying operating system.

! Linux and other open source environments include all operating systems deployed aboard servers, workstations, minicomputers, and clients that are based on Linux or other Unix-like open source operating environments. Typically, this software is available both commercially with associated support and

maintenance costs and at little or no cost in source code form. Software of this type is usually licensed under the Free Software Foundation's general-purpose license (GPL) or other licensing that encourages free access to the source code to these operating environments. Note that non-revenue-producing versions of Linux are still classified as Linux operating systems for the purpose of allocating revenue-producing layered software by underlying operating system.

! Other host/server environments include all other operating systems that are used as either host or server environments aboard server hardware systems. Some examples of operating systems in this category are HP OpenVMS and Novell NetWare, as well as residual revenue associated with discontinued operating systems, such as HP MPE/iX and IBM OS/2.

! Windows 32 and 64 include all operating systems that support the Win32 APIs and Win64 APIs, including Microsoft's Windows 9x, Windows Me, Windows NT Workstation, all versions of Windows NT Server, Windows 2000 Professional, all versions of Windows 2000 Server, Windows XP Home, Windows XP Tablet PC Edition, Windows XP Media Center Edition, Windows XP Professional, Windows XP 64-Bit Edition, all versions of Windows Vista, and all editions of Windows Server 2003, including the release 2 (R2) versions.

! Embedded operating environments and related subsystems include commercially available products that incorporate the machine-level instructions and general-purpose functions that control the operation and use of CPU resources in smart, embedded, and limited-function devices. Embedded operating environments may either offer some form of a user interface (graphical, text, voice, or other) or include the required services or APIs to allow developers to build their own interface if so required. These environments generally include defined and documented APIs that can be used by application software, which in turn is created by related application development tools. Embedded operating environment products may include both source code and executable/runtime code, or just executable/runtime code, and may offer either real-time or non-real-time operational characteristics. Real time is defined as the ability for the system to respond in a predetermined time to scheduled or interrupt-driven events. Non�real time is defined as the ability for the system to respond rapidly enough to respond in less than a second to network or user input. Embedded operating environments tracked by IDC might be specialized versions of general-purpose operating systems (such as Linux and Windows XP Embedded), but must be commercially available. Embedded operating environments tracked by IDC include Windows CE, Linux, Palm OS, EPOC, LynxOS, VxWorks, QNX, and Nucleus. Special-purpose embedded operating environments that are not commercially available but are integrated into a commercially available hardware product (e.g., Nintendo Game Boys, industrial control systems, certain automotive control systems, and so forth) are specifically excluded because the operating system is not available exclusive of the underlying hardware product.

! Other single-user operating environments include all other operating systems that are used as client or standalone environments. Some examples of operating systems in this category are 16-bit Windows and DOS (including MS-DOS, PC-DOS, and DR-DOS), OS/2, and non-Unix versions of Mac OS (generally Mac OS 9.x and earlier).

! Hardware appliances consist of hardware with an integrated, hardened operating system; a limited applications set; and no user software installation. Appliances differ from pure embedded operating systems in that the operating system used in an appliance is typically a hardware-specific, special-purpose operating system that is not commercially available on a standalone basis from the appliance vendor. However, in some cases, an appliance may be constructed utilizing an embedded operating system that is commercially available from another vendor. Examples of such a configuration include a storage server built using Windows Storage Server 2003, a firewall appliance built upon an embedded version of Windows Server 2003, or a security or networking device built using an embedded version of Linux from (for example) Montavista Software or Red Hat. In most cases, appliance devices integrate operating system application software together with application functionality, security management, policy management, quality of service, load balancing, high availability, and bandwidth management. Like the operating system itself, this layered software is in most cases unique and specific to the appliance � and not commercially available independent from the appliance itself. However, in certain cases, the layered software may be commercially available from the firm that produced the software. For instance, a security or storage appliance based on an embedded version of the Windows operating system may also incorporate certain layered commercial software products from Microsoft. In this context, commercially available operating systems (embedded or general purpose) and commercially available layered software products that are integrated in appliance devices will continue to be tracked in IDC's pure software market segments in addition to being tracked as part of the appliance device. This tracking methodology does not lead to double counting because appliance revenue cannot be combined with pure software revenue due to the differing taxonomical definitions describing these market segments.

The Competitive Market Map is an IDC tool for evaluating the competitive position of software vendors in an increasingly complex market. The goal of the Competitive Market Map is to present a quantitative software vendor comparison tool based on IDC's rigorous software taxonomy and the depth and breath of software market data collected and analyzed by IDC. The Competitive Market Map is a tool that permits quantitative competitive analysis based on four variables: vendor revenue, momentum, reliance, and diversity. The metrics used are defined as follows.

! Vendor revenue. The size of the bubble is determined by the size of the vendor's revenue in the selected market(s) relative to all the other vendors included in the selection for the selected year. All bubbles are normalized in a particular graph.

! Momentum. On the y-axis, momentum is calculated as the product of the vendor's growth rate and the vendor's annual revenue in the selected market in the selected year relative to the previous year.

Momentum = (growth rate from year 1 to year 2) x (revenue in year 2)

! Reliance. This is the ratio of a vendor's revenue in the selected market to that vendor's total revenue in the domain in the selected year. The color of the bubble shows the range of the ratio with:

# White: 0% < reliance <= 25%

# Yellow: 25% < reliance <= 50%

# Orange: 50% < reliance <= 75%

# Red: 75% < reliance <=100%

! Diversity. Diversity (on the x-axis) is a measure of the breadth and depth of product offerings within a single market dimension. Diversity is weighted by the importance of each individual market segment among all segments along the selected dimension. Given a market dimension:

Diversityk = Σmarket segments j Wj * (1 - (1/10 share(k,j) ) ), for all vendors, k

Where:

# Share(k,j) is the share of vendor k in market segment j

# Wj is the share of market segment j among all segments along the selected dimension

Thus, a company with a given share in all segments will have a greater diversity than a vendor with the same share in fewer segments. A company with a minimal share in all market segments along a dimension will have less diversity than a vendor with greater shares in all the segments. Also, vendors with a given share in a large market segment will have a larger diversity that a vendor with the same share in a smaller market segment. Diversity is thus proportional to:

# The number of market segments in which a vendor participates

# The vendor's share in each of the segment

# The relative size of each of the segments in which the vendor participates
