ABI Research: "DPI Solutions to Generate $1.3 Billion Revenue in 2015"

 
  

According to ABI Research "Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) will lead the field of mobile network test and optimization solutions by 2013 and is expected to generate equipment revenues of $1.3 billion in 2015".

See press release "Deep Packet Inspection Solutions to Generate $1.3 Billion Revenue in 2015" - here and "Mobile Network Optimization" - here.

ABI's mobile networks practice director Aditya Kaul said - "If you double the number of smartphone users, you can’t just spend $10 billion to double the capacity of your infrastructure.”

The common definition to DPI market today is active traffic management solutions that are based on accurate application identification, using Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) technology. The above quote and other information in the press release seem to refer to the same definition. However, the companies mentioned in the release are more in “passive” monitoring/testing equipment vendors - so I am not sure which market is covered by the new report.
