Study: The Adoption of Managed Services Are on Demand

Colocation-SolutionsALE, a global provider of communications solutions and services operating under the Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise, announced the results of research conducted in collaboration with TPNET and focused on the adoption of managed services in the Network On Demand within companies and various market sectors.

The study, titled “Network On Demand: The future for network infrastructure companies,” shows that the most popular services are the maintenance and support infrastructure (21.4%), managed services for network infrastructure (17.9%), data storage (17.9%), printers (14.3%), security (10.7%), the server (7.1%) and cloud voice communication (7%).

The research fits perfectly in the results of a recent study by IDC, which states that by 2020, 80% of enterprise network infrastructure will be provided with a pay-per-use model. The main advantages of this model are given by both the reduction or even the cancellation of investments related to the equipment, either by the possibility of having a network managed by a team of experts able to cope with an environment whose complexity is constantly evolving.

With managed services, companies use only what they need by paying for what they use, and it allows to have a flexible structure that responds to network and connectivity needs. According to ZK Research, multinationals, and large enterprises on average require more than 30 software updates for their network infrastructure, making management a real challenge.

Nearly 65% of enterprises use their own staff for management and maintenance of network infrastructure, while 20.7% use external suppliers. Less than 5% said they have an external contract, which also includes the complete management of network services.

The research also shows that 40% of respondents recognized the cost as one of the main benefits of managed services; 35% said that the greatest benefit is the ability to improve the network without having to invest in the new budget. One in four has then recognized as a convenience free updates on hardware and software.

Finally, about 18% think that the most significant advantage is the reduction of its commitment to IT network management, as well as the flexibility to apply network resource when required.

Faced With a Pervasive Cloud, Companies will Build on the PaaS

PaaSThe cloud will take more and more space in IT spending and business needs in the matter will be complicated, opening the way to PaaS and IaaS. These are the conclusions that could be drawn from two studies published this summer by IDC and Gartner.

If the rise of cloud in enterprises, whether public or private is indeed well established, it appears that their approach in this area tends to be more structured. So if one believes the forecasts of Gartner, the cloud strongly marked the keys, directly or indirectly, the IT spending. Even altering the structure of the IT market, the firm understands the cloud is expected to impact the whole market up to 1000 billion dollars in 2020.

Companies continue to spend IT in the cloud (a process that Gartner calls “Cloud Shift”). In 2016, the firm expects spending on the cloud to reach $111 billion, and the figure will reach to $216 billion in 2020. Gartner calculates the difference between IT spending in the traditional IT and those in the cloud, on the same technological segments.

If logically, cloud confirm its distribution model space and consumption of IT in the coming years, it appears that business requirements follow the same curve.

If the SaaS has long led the cloud segment driving growth, characterized by its ease of implementation, its billing subscription, as well as its standard mechanisms, PaaS and IaaS could turn up in power in the years to come. Growth and IaaS PaaS segments will thus be faster than that of SaaS. This is what IDC thinks its side.

Rising public PaaS

In its latest forecast, the analyst firm put in effect on an increase in the public cloud within the next five years. No longer driven by the SaaS but by the PaaS and IaaS. According to IDC, the public cloud is expected to generate some $195 billion in 2020, against $96.5 billion this year.

While some companies have indeed sold their traditional applications to a SaaS model, publishers have either expanded their catalog of a SaaS offer or businesses have migrated to pure players in the sector.

However, all will not propose SaaS equivalent. To migrate to the cloud, companies will then bet on a lower layer to build their business applications – the PaaS.

Another possible explanation is the need for companies to manage the development and integration of cloud toward the SI or between cloud services. Again, PaaS offers an option of choice.

Until the PaaS was considered the poor relation of the three layers of cloud. But with the ubiquity of the cloud model, its acceptance by businesses and the increasing complexity of IT, this brick could become unavoidable.

Companies Continue to Wage a Battle with DDoS Attacks

DDoS-attacksDDoS or denial of service attack is an attempt to make the resources of a system unavailable to its users. Virtually all industries are susceptible to this type of attack. DDoS attacks are growing rapidly, and many countries are beginning to create legislation so that they are taken more seriously and treated as a real problem.

A10 Networks announced the results of a recent report commissioned by IDG Connect: “IDG Connect DDoS Survey”.

The main conclusion of the study, which is based on interviews with 120 senior decision-making IT in large organizations, cites that companies are currently waging a brutal battle against a growing army of online attackers. As a result, companies suffer an average of 15 DDoS year, with an offensive that causes an average of 17 hours of actual inactivity, including falls, blocking or denial of access to the client.

As DDoS attacks become more popular, they are also become harder to combat. So, and while the maximum utilization of bandwidth to carry out an attack reaches the middle of incredible 30-40 gigabits per second (Gbps), 59% of organizations confirmed to have experienced assault of more than 40 Gbps. Besides, most respondents (77%) also expect sophisticated multi-vector attacks patterns as the most dangerous type of DDoS attacks in the future.

More than half of the organizations surveyed confirmed their intention to increase their budgets for prevention of DDoS attacks in the next six months. The IT security teams are the most likely to lead efforts to prevent DDoS attacks (36%), followed closely by CSOs (26%) and CIOs (26%).

DDoS attacks are called ‘sudden death’ for good reason. If the brake is not put, costs for organizations could range from loss of business to the need to invest time in restoring the service and decrease in customer satisfaction. The good news is that IDG findings show that security teams are making the DDoS attack prevention a priority. With improved threat prevention system, they can make an immediate threat to their business in a notification level.

Among the key findings of the report include:

  • The type companies suffered an average of 15 DDoS a year, with large organizations experienced more interruptions.
  • One in five companies reported that downtime were more than 36 hours, with an average duration of 17 hours attacks.
  • 33% of respondents reported DDoS attacks over 40 Gbps with the most common are Flood UDP (23%), Slow Post (16%) and SYN Flood (14%).
  • 77% believe that the multi-vector attacks, including attacks at the application level and volume, are included, will be the most dangerous in the future.
  • More than half of respondents plan to increase their DDoS budgets (54%) in the next six months.
  • 53% of respondents confirmed that on premise protection is the most effective solution to deal with multi-vector DDoS threats, followed by the hybrid protection (34%), or a single solution as the on-premise appliance (19%).

The corporate segment in various industries believes that telecom operators and ISPs are those who are best positioned to protect them against such attacks. There is, therefore, a window of opportunity for operators to generate revenues by offering security services to mitigate DDoS attacks.
