Emerging Technologies - Analysis

Introduction

With the pace of technological innovation rapidly accelerating, thousands of potential new technologies are waiting to be developed. In order to succeed in the innovation game, organizations must be able to discern which of these are likely to flourish within given market conditions.

Networking

There are several domains and areas where innovations and new technologies are budding to introduce whole new range of trends and entirely change the conventional schemes and practices. One such domain is networking that entails a lot of newly emerging technologies like Big data technology, Cloud Computing, Unified Communications and IPv6. These technologies are increasingly becoming prevalent in the domain of networking and are progressively transforming the way networks are optimized, managed and monitored. The emerging technologies, on one hand impart novel means to augment reliability and performance and on the other hand, they crack several conventional hastening products and also impose a new way to think of managing the performance of the network. However, these technologies, for their vast spectrum of productive innovation, may never be ignored. First class organizations ought to perform best of their tasks at appraising novel technologies and applying them at the best time to acquire a benefit over their competitors.

Ipv6

Internet Protocol version 6 which is abbreviated as IPv6 is the most recent modification of the Internet protocol that is the chief communications protocol on which the intact internet operates. IPv6 has up to a great extent supplanted the precious version IPv4; however IPv4 is still used for much of internet traffic. IPv6 is intended to cope with the ever expected issue of IPv4 that is its running short of IP addresses. IPv6 executes a new scheme which permits a lot more IP addresses to be allocated then offered by IPv4. Every device on the Internet like mobile phones or computers should be necessarily allocated an IP address for communicating with the rest of the devices. With the ever amplifying quantity of devices connecting to the internet, there is a requirement for more IP addresses than IPv4 is able to lodge. IPv6 provides IP addresses 7.9×1028 times more than IPv4 does by using 128-bit IP addresses. IPv4 only permits about 4,294,967,296 distinct IP addresses all through the world whereas IPv6 permits almost 4.8×1028 IP addresses for each person on the planet, which is ample enough for the total population of the planet (Partridge & Kastenholz, 2011).

Market Readiness and Feasibility

I am of the thought that IP telephony is not merely a technology, rather it is a journey. For a few organizations, the journey starts off with the necessity to swap or modify a conventional telephone system. On the contrary, some others are compelled by a yearning to diminish the costs of calls by employing their IP networks to convey the inter office traffic. I suggest that the market readiness of IPv6 however are allied to the realization of an organization that an effectual implementation of IP telephony carries along with it an infrastructure which is able ...
