The Internet Datacenter Supply Report 2010 gives readers an overview of the Internet Datacenter market, while providing actionable metrics around geographies and specific providers. In this report, ‘Internet datacenters’ are considered multi-customer wholesale and retail colocation and hosting facilities. Single-user enterprise datacenters and carrier hotels are specifically excluded from this analysis, although colocation and hosting facilities that lease space in carrier hotels are included.
This report provides current supply, demand and utilization metrics, as well as updates to market-specific analyses. Tier1 Research’s methodology in gathering this data varies depending on the provider. For public companies, financial disclosures are used, with some caution since different firms calculate and report their utilization in different ways. For private firms, a variety of methods are employed, including interviews, site visits, customer insights and competitive data.

| The Managed Hosting North America Overview, Winter 2010 report is the latest in the series of managed hosting reports that earlier in the year focused on the global market for managed hosting. In this report, we examine some of the latest trends driving the managed hosting market, including the increasing adoption of business-critical managed application management – a practice previously considered taboo for most managed hosting providers, due to the affiliation with the largely defunct ASP model. The report also documents the increasing migration of dedicated hosting providers up the value stack toward offering managed hosting services, while ironically, so many of the largest managed hosting providers are in turn diversifying their offering to appeal to the rapidly expanding SMB sector. Naturally, a part of that move includes the launching of several new cloud computing products as well.

| This is the second in a series of cloud infrastructure reports for 2009, that contrasts the leaders of the Cloud Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and Platform as a Service (PaaS) sectors. Profiles include Amazon’s Web Services, Google AppEngine, Windows Azure, Force.com and Rackspace. The report describes the direction these cloud service providers are taking as they expand beyond rudimentary infrastructure as a service plays and infringe on the traditional dedicated and managed services market. The consumer of these cloud services has changed from a year ago – public clouds are no longer being addressed solely to ISVs and developers. Instead, modern clouds are tailored to the needs of the enterprise market, the federal sector and other highly regulated and compliance-seeking industries. This report showcases some of the concerns of these users, and how some of the cloud leaders have evolved their offerings to attract serious enterprise users to their platforms. This includes insight into the new APIs, features and innovations coming into the market that are alleviating fears of the cloud and proving of greater value than traditional services.

This report focuses on the managed hosting sector, describing changes taking place among the most prominent hosters that have made the paradigm shift to cloud services.

For the first time, T1R will provide the most accurate market-sizing numbers for the cloud infrastructure market, eliminating the meaningless numbers that have been thrown around in the market, and extrapolating just the pure-play cloud services numbers. The market will be further disaggregated into those providers that are fostering public and commodity cloud offerings, separate from those creating more complex private cloud environments.

This research report, ‘Content Delivery Networks Worldwide Market Overview: Summer 2009,’ is part of an ongoing series of quarterly reports on the evolving market for content delivery services. This edition of the report takes a look at the overall health of the market for CDN services and offers T1R’s perspective on what lies ahead for vendors.
After a strong 2008, the worldwide market for CDN services is going to face a lot of headwind in a weak economy. As a result, the CDN services market is expected to grow a modest 9.5% over 2008 results. While T1R expects to see continued strong growth in Europe and the Asia-Pacific region over the next 18 months, a lack of catalysts for growth in North America will dampen overall market growth into 2010.
The cooling of the market for content delivery has rekindled efforts to diversify
and add new services continue to pick up steam. For some vendors, this will mean
acquisition activity in technologies related to digital media distribution as well as other CDNs, while others are adding services such as whole site acceleration and looking at heading into application-level acceleration. Others are repositioning themselves to offer infrastructure services for cloud computing.
The summer 2009 report provides market-share data on the top public and private players, as well as figures for the overall CDN market with updated Q1 2009 figures. Profiles of top vendors are included, with summaries of major developments as they pertain to worldwide sales and strategy.

Those ICEP firms include Internet content and search portals; sports and entertainmentfocused websites; massively multiplayer online gaming providers; the so-called “casual gaming” sites; social networking and personal interaction websites; and streaming media and IPTV providers. Client Disconnected takes a head-on look at the current strategies for Internet interconnection and datacenter selection being utilized by these ICEPs and provides direct and actionable advice on how to improve the precarious positions and poorly thought out architectures in wide deployment throughout the industry. Most importantly, Client Disconnected introduces the Internet Connectivity Quality Score ranking to enable ICEPs to evaluate themselves with peers on an objective basis.

| The SaaS business model is substantively different from the traditional, on-premise software business model; however, to date, most analysts have used the same metrics (typically billings and free cash flow) to assess the economics of both business models. While billings and free cash flow are metrics of import, they tend to obfuscate the merits of high-growth SaaS business models due to sizeable, upfront customer acquisition costs and muted upfront benefits resulting from SaaS vendors’ pay-as-you-go offerings. In an effort to more effectively gauge the economics of SaaS vendors, our report entitled, “SaaS Economics: Examining the Value of Customer Additions” examines the value of subscriber additions over the entire customer life by focusing on 3 key drivers: 1) customer acquisition costs, 2) pricing power and 3) the duration of the customer life.

| The equity markets have been roiled over the last couple of months and while no industry has been immune to the downturn, those companies which are levered to IT spending (i.e., software companies and more specifically, software-as-a-service [SaaS] vendors) have been especially battered. Case in point, the stock prices of the nine public companies which comprise our SaaS coverage universe have declined by an average of 56% since our valuation report dated September 25. And although the near-term fundamentals of the stocks in our coverage universe hhttps://admin.the451.com/website/framework/admin.php?obj=reports&page=1&id=701&do=editave clearly been impaired, the breadth and depth of the sell-off lead us to believe that investors have clearly thrown out the babies with the bathwater. The purpose of this report is to identify those babies in an effort to help investors hedge volatility in the near term and identify those investment opportunities in our SaaS coverage that we expect will generate the highest risk-adjusted returns in the long term.

| This report is the second in a two-part series on next-generation services for managed hosting providers. It focuses specifically on the underlying components of cloud computing; namely: utility computing, on-demand storage and the concept of platform as a service. In order to avoid the confusion plaguing the managed hosting industry, T1R has detached true cloud computing capabilities from many of the grids and applications that are reliant on cloud infrastructure for efficient operation. We have provided profiles of managed hosting providers making the transition to cloud infrastructure services, from which the winners
of the cloud computing race will ultimately emerge. A brief analysis of some of the pricing of cloud services is discussed wherever possible, given that the implementation of these new technologies is still in the early stages, and is proving profitable for some, and not for others.

| The Managed Hosting North America Overview, Winter 2010 report is the latest in the series of managed hosting reports that earlier in the year focused on the global market for managed hosting. In this report, we examine some of the latest trends driving the managed hosting market, including the increasing adoption of business-critical managed application management – a practice previously considered taboo for most managed hosting providers, due to the affiliation with the largely defunct ASP model. The report also documents the increasing migration of dedicated hosting providers up the value stack toward offering managed hosting services, while ironically, so many of the largest managed hosting providers are in turn diversifying their offering to appeal to the rapidly expanding SMB sector. Naturally, a part of that move includes the launching of several new cloud computing products as well.

| This is the second in a series of cloud infrastructure reports for 2009, that contrasts the leaders of the Cloud Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and Platform as a Service (PaaS) sectors. Profiles include Amazon’s Web Services, Google AppEngine, Windows Azure, Force.com and Rackspace. The report describes the direction these cloud service providers are taking as they expand beyond rudimentary infrastructure as a service plays and infringe on the traditional dedicated and managed services market. The consumer of these cloud services has changed from a year ago – public clouds are no longer being addressed solely to ISVs and developers. Instead, modern clouds are tailored to the needs of the enterprise market, the federal sector and other highly regulated and compliance-seeking industries. This report showcases some of the concerns of these users, and how some of the cloud leaders have evolved their offerings to attract serious enterprise users to their platforms. This includes insight into the new APIs, features and innovations coming into the market that are alleviating fears of the cloud and proving of greater value than traditional services.

| The Cloud Infrastructure Services report is a follow-on from last year’s Next-Generation Hosting reports, and the first such report for 2009. This report focuses on the managed hosting sector, describing changes taking place among the most prominent hosters that have made the paradigm shift to cloud services. T1R has noticed a greater degree of maturity and nuanced differences in the more sophisticated cloud infrastructure services that managed hosters are offering in the market. For the first time, T1R will provide the most accurate market-sizing numbers for the cloud infrastructure market, eliminating the meaningless numbers that have been thrown around in the market, and extrapolating just the pure-play cloud services numbers. The market will be further disaggregated into those providers that are fostering public and commodity cloud offerings, separate from those creating more complex private cloud environments.

This research report, ‘Content Delivery Networks Worldwide Market Overview: Summer 2009,’ is part of an ongoing series of quarterly reports on the evolving market for content delivery services. This edition of the report takes a look at the overall health of the market for CDN services and offers T1R’s perspective on what lies ahead for vendors.
After a strong 2008, the worldwide market for CDN services is going to face a lot of headwind in a weak economy. As a result, the CDN services market is expected to grow a modest 9.5% over 2008 results. While T1R expects to see continued strong growth in Europe and the Asia-Pacific region over the next 18 months, a lack of catalysts for growth in North America will dampen overall market growth into 2010.
The cooling of the market for content delivery has rekindled efforts to diversify
and add new services continue to pick up steam. For some vendors, this will mean
acquisition activity in technologies related to digital media distribution as well as other CDNs, while others are adding services such as whole site acceleration and looking at heading into application-level acceleration. Others are repositioning themselves to offer infrastructure services for cloud computing.
The summer 2009 report provides market-share data on the top public and private players, as well as figures for the overall CDN market with updated Q1 2009 figures. Profiles of top vendors are included, with summaries of major developments as they pertain to worldwide sales and strategy.

| The SaaS business model is substantively different from the traditional, on-premise software business model; however, to date, most analysts have used the same metrics (typically billings and free cash flow) to assess the economics of both business models. While billings and free cash flow are metrics of import, they tend to obfuscate the merits of high-growth SaaS business models due to sizeable, upfront customer acquisition costs and muted upfront benefits resulting from SaaS vendors’ pay-as-you-go offerings. In an effort to more effectively gauge the economics of SaaS vendors, our report entitled, “SaaS Economics: Examining the Value of Customer Additions” examines the value of subscriber additions over the entire customer life by focusing on 3 key drivers: 1) customer acquisition costs, 2) pricing power and 3) the duration of the customer life.

| The equity markets have been roiled over the last couple of months and while no industry has been immune to the downturn, those companies which are levered to IT spending (i.e., software companies and more specifically, software-as-a-service [SaaS] vendors) have been especially battered. Case in point, the stock prices of the nine public companies which comprise our SaaS coverage universe have declined by an average of 56% since our valuation report dated September 25. And although the near-term fundamentals of the stocks in our coverage universe hhttps://admin.the451.com/website/framework/admin.php?obj=reports&page=1&id=701&do=editave clearly been impaired, the breadth and depth of the sell-off lead us to believe that investors have clearly thrown out the babies with the bathwater. The purpose of this report is to identify those babies in an effort to help investors hedge volatility in the near term and identify those investment opportunities in our SaaS coverage that we expect will generate the highest risk-adjusted returns in the long term.
