Impact of IPv6 on Enterprises
Given the vital role that the Internet plays in communications and the delivery of services in today's business environment, the imminent exhaustion of IPv4 addresses impacts everyone and everything connected to it, including your organisation.
Your organisation will need to support new services and devices as you grow. As the remaining IPv4 pool becomes depleted, your existing address allocations may be insufficient to support the increase in the number of connected devices per person. IPv6 will help resolve this with its very large addressing capabilities.
IPv6 is also important in ensuring that your services remain accessible to the rest of the Internet and that your organisation is able to capitalise on new business opportunities. This applies especially to emerging markets where the proportion of IPv6-only systems is expected to grow. Connectivity with such sites (and customers) will require IPv6.

Programme
IDA will continue to work with the Infocomm ecosystem on new programmes and activities to catalyse the adoption of IPv6 in Singapore. It is also monitoring market developments to assess if further measures are needed to aid the transition. Details of these programmes will be announced as and when they are made available.
