RUSSIAN FEDERATION BROADBAND & WIMAX MARKET ANALYSIS

RUSSIAN FEDERATION BROADBAND & WIMAX MARKET ANALYSIS
Forecasts for 2006-2010
The Russian economy is flourishing and demand is quickly outpacing the supply of the telecommunications services provided by legacy wired telecommunication infrastructure built during the communist era. This new 100-pages report, the second of a series that includes reports on Brazil and India, provides an in-depth review of the broadband wireless and WiMAX markets and regulatory activity taking place in Russia. In the context of increased international WiMAX activity, how does the Russian market stand? How large will the pie become by 2010?

What are the obstacles still ahead of large scale deployments?: Maravedis predicts a consolidation among the current 200 BWA service providers active in the country. The report includes profiles of the Top 10 service providers in Russia and concludes that the most active players will be companies with deep pockets that belong to one of three major holdings in Russia, namely Alfa, Sistema and Telekom Invest which control both fixed and mobile service providers. However shortage of spectrum and very stringent regulation for equipment and licensing are serious obstacles for massive adoption of broadband wireless and WiMAX in Russia. For WiMAX to prosper in Russia, frequency bands in the 2 GHz range (2.3-2.4 and/or 2.5-2.7GHz) must be made available to commercial operators.

WIMAX DEPLOYMENTS

TRENDSMEDIA/RETHINK PUBLISH WIMAX DEPLOYMENTS AND INVESTMENT 2006-9

August 11, 2006 - According to Trendsmedia/Rethink Research's latest
report, "WiMAX Deployments and Investment 2006-9", global WiMAX
infrastructure spending will rocket from $655m today to $7.36bn by 2009,
just three short years away.

WiMAX spending will go from 22.5% of all broadband wireless spending in
2006 to be the dominant platform in the market, with a 63% share. This is
the first piece of research to state definitively how much money will be
spent on WiMAX equipment, including core networking - in which countries,
and for which applications.

The report draws entirely on operators' spending plans rather than vendor
estimates. Rethink Research has enjoyed confidential access to the
spending plans of over 200 service providers from all round the world,
including how much money they have committed to future WiMAX spending, and
how much they have spent so far in building out standard and pre-certified
WiMAX networks. The next few years will show a remarkable pattern, with
European spending skyrocketing and taking up 56% of 2006 WiMAX spending,
only to be caught up by aggressive Chinese and other Asia Pacific network
build. US spending will be relevant, but by no means dominant.

Though mobile operators still see WiMAX as being in the enemy camp, by
2009 mobile operators round the world will be the second largest spenders
on WiMAX equipment, making up 17% of the total WiMAX equipment spend.

The report shows that the market for WiMAX equipment will be larger than
many have previously suggested and informs 802.16 vendors in which
territories they should be making their biggest efforts. Spending will
explode on the back of rising demand for broadband to be ubiquitous and
either personal or portable, and though 802.16e will be the key platform,
this will span both fixed and mobile applications.

KEY FINDINGS:
. Wireless will increase its share of the broadband market from 2% to
around 17% in the early years of the next decade.

. WiMAX spending will be focused almost entirely on licensed bands and the
5GHz band may not even gain a wide choice of certified equipment, relying
instead on cost effective options such as Motorola Canopy. 3.5GHz. will
account for 70% of spending.

. Additional 3.5GHz licenses will be offered in France, Germany, Italy and
parts of Eastern Europe in 2006-7, driving a second wave of European
investment, and this trend will be reflected from late 2007 in Africa and
the Middle East.

"WiMAX Global Spending Plans: 2006 - 2009" includes separate detailed
breakdowns of spending in the US, Caribbean/Latin America, Europe, Middle
East/Africa, China and Japan, India, Pakistan, Australia and south East
Asia, and costs $1,495 for a single protected PDF copy.

VEEAM(TM) SOFTWARE ANNOUNCES THE RELEASE OF VEEAM MONITOR
for VMware Server and VMware Workstation

Windows Task Manager like monitor helps to identify performance bottlenecks and run virtual machines infrastructure more efficiently.

Saint-Petersburg, Russia, August 14, 2006 - Veeam(TM) Software, a new provider of best-of-breed systems management solutions for virtual machines (VMs), today announced the release of Veeam Monitor, an application to monitor VMware virtual machines' performance and resource usage. Veeam Monitor provides a unified view of the performance and resource usage of all Virtual Machines running on a VMware Server or VMware Workstation. Running Veeam Monitor is similar to running multiple Windows Task Managers on each virtual machine and combining the result into a single monitoring console. In addition, it provides a view of the specific usage of the subsystems such as the CPU, Memory, the Disk, Network and Pagefile.

Veeam Monitor is extremely useful for planning, balancing the resources, identifying performance bottlenecks and troubleshooting the virtual machines infrastructure.

"Veeam Monitor is a unique solution as it provides a bird's eye view on virtual infrastructure as well as an easy way to drill down and view general resource usage per machine, all from a single console." - said Andrei Baronov, CTO, Veeam Software - "It give VM administrators and users full control of their VMware infrastructure."

Veeam Monitor provides a VM administrator with essential performance information about CPU, Memory, the Disk, Pagefile and Internal\External networking. The performance counters and graphs are given per virtual machine. Veeam Monitor collects the performance information even when it is not active. This is very useful when there is a performance problem that happened in the past and needs to be analyzed. By helping to figure out the source of reduced performance, Veeam Monitor enables user to redistribute server's resources among virtual machines to eliminate the problem, maximizing efficiency.

Veeam Monitor has 3 license types: Veeam Monitor for VMware Server, Veeam Monitor for VMware Workstation and Veeam Monitor for VMware Workstation Personal Edition. To download free evaluation trial please visit: http://www.veeam.com/download.asp

The price of Veeam Monitor for VMware Server is $200 and Veeam Monitor for VMware Workstation is $30. Veeam Monitor for VMware Workstation is free for personal use.
