[m2m-iwg] Cisco Report on Global Mobile Data Traffic Forecast Update

["Mike Milinkovich" <mike.milinkovich@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

 

I found this interesting and thought others might also.

 

Good summary at [1]. The full Cisco report at [2]

 

…you might be surprised by the second-leading source of the expected surge in traffic… "M2M." ... It is expected to grow, on average, 86 percent a year, and by 2016 it is expected to reach 506 petabytes a month.

 

Staggering projections of M2M-driven growth. No wonder the mobile operators are all over this.
