Opportunity to create new T&M solution in ipV6

India has cashed on in FY2K the opportunity when the Computer industry needed an IT solution for getting over the date stamping challenge in the computing Machines at the turn of the last millennium.Our fledgling industry with army of coders available were handed this challenge and almost overnight lot of outsourcing work came to Indian Software coolies for porting and other rectification so.India found for herself a new identity as a new industry was getting borne to either serve from India or serve "on site" wherever the client was located.Surely and Silently,an youth from India saw the opportunity and big bucks in the IT industry then.Rest is history and today the industry
Majorly as a Service Industry boasts of 120Billion revenues for the country!

Whenever such like discontinuity occurs,there is always need for new solution to the problems.The solution in our industry can be in new development of hardware,or software/services or both a combination of the two plus some additions.The technology industry has become a breeding ground for new problems rand so new solution opportunities for everybody- the Designers,Manufacturers,the Venture Capitalists or the Governments wanting to create jobs in their local economies.Scaling of these is possible if the technology is robust,inexpensive,exclusive and suits the Economy.Recent Examples have been block buster disruptions created by Apple in iPhone and now on the Apple Watch.

ICANN is now running out of web addresses because of insufficiency of IPV4.The new standard will be IPV6 which will not run out of numbers needed.IP addresses will be always available in this domain,but there will be porting or some other modification is to be done in the existing hardware or a new hardware/ software combo needs to be created.New specifications have got almost unlimited possibilities of IP addresses.Many countries have moved over to new system and many are moving.

There is a possibility that the modification solution will involve hardware,software or both.And that will be at the intersection of IT,Telecom and T&M technologies and in fact can be a powerful scalable and big opportunities for industry,like the set top box for the domestic TV industry.Retrofitting the old existing hardware with new device can be a possible solution or creating a patch over the box can be yet another.

Whatever that may be,an opportunity for developing a technology and viable solution does exist here.
And the skills of IT and T&M will come handy for both conceiving and manufacturing the device for commercial exploitation. Will someone take the ball?
