Impact of IPv6 on SMEs
Many businesses make use of the Internet today for critical operations ranging from communications to online transactions and the delivery of Internet-enabled services.
Given the pervasiveness of Internet usage, there are compelling business reasons for migrating to IPv6. With the exhaustion of IPv4 addresses and as IPv6 adoption gains traction, your business will soon have to cater for partners and customers with IPv4 or IPv6 public addresses.
The depletion of IPv4 addresses is inevitable. When that happens, you will have to make use of IPv6 when looking to expand your operations, or to introduce new Internet-enabled services. In fact, in many emerging business markets and developing countries, a growing proportion of users will be using IPv6-only systems. To capitalise on the business opportunities that this presents, it is important that your business is IPv6-ready.
