- Networks are multiservice : historical data applications are completed
by multimedia and mobility services. Telephony over IP deployments and WiFi
extension are two waves of an inexorable evolution, leading to networks
where devices will become unnumbered and from various natures. This leads
to new challenges for network administrators.
- Public IP addresses are scarce and expensive : Service providers deploy
private networks in order to delay a migration towards IPv6. But before
2010, IPv6 is likely to become unavoidable. It will trigger massive
changes in the current network management landscape.
- Users are network-dependent : worries are increasing concerning the
security and availability of the network because it may impact seriously
business operations.
Adipsys is a spinoff of Orange Labs. The company develops network management solutions to assist administrators in the deployment and management of convergent infrastructures.
