Abstract
This IDC study presents a detailed description of our software
taxonomy. IDC' s software taxonomy is used in all IDC software
reports. All reports of markets classified by functions and all
competition analysis reports published by IDC are based on this
taxonomy. Understanding of the overall structure of the software market
and the way we organize our software market reports can
be gained from this study. In addition, this study provides
market sizing (estimates) for the 2008 Japan software market as
well as market size forecasts for 2009 to 2013.
"In the
rapidly changing Japan software market, the ability to quickly adapt
to changes is in very high demand. The ability to
match cutting edge architecture design and comprehensive support with prevailing
demand will become a strong competence to other companies in
these competitive times," analyzes IDC Japan software research manager Kazuhiko
Inouye.
