Cisco Says Internet Video to Explode - Internet traffic will increase
fivefold over the next five years, driven in large part by a jump in the
amount of video transmitted across the network, according to Cisco Systems.
The finding highlights a study of the demand on communications networks
between 2008 and 2013 the company will release Tuesday. By 2013, Cisco
expects Internet traffic to reach about 56 exabytes per month, up from about
9 exabytes per month in 2008. More than 90 percent of this traffic will come
from video. Another place where Cisco predicts the amount of data will
explode is mobile, increasing 66 times by 2013.
