Vincentas Grinius, CEO at Heficed, said some of the changes to the industry bought in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic are here to stay.
Grinius said that unable to resume business as usual, workers continued to carry out their daily tasks from the comfort of their homes. Companies pivoted their IT budgets to VoIP services, secure VPNs, remote desktop protocols, and other solutions aimed at streamlining collaboration among employees.
While IPv6 has been preached as the ultimate solution for solving the IPv4 address shortage it is still a long way away according to Heficed CEO Vincentas Grinius .
Grinius said that while IPv6’s maturity is increasing, there’s still a long road ahead before it is as fully accessible as it needs to be, in order to facilitate the Network’s further expansion.
“It could be years till the majority of tech runs only with version 6″, he said.
Network infrastructure services provider Heficed has struck a deal with IP data providers IPinfo.io to provide Heficed’s IP Address Market access to enhanced IP address information, letting it grow a web infrastructure ecosystem that can ensure IP address accuracy surpasses current standards and increases industry transparency.
The pair expect keen interest from their clients. IPinfo.io, which specialises in providing enhanced IP Address data, will be able to offer its clients access to a large pool of IPv4 addresses via Heficed, as an extension to the standard set of data services .
IPinfo CEO Ben Dowling said: “Companies should be able to easily lease unused IPv4 addresses to other businesses that face IPv4 shortages, and the IP Address Market is a great and easy to use solution. To this end, we’re joining forces with Heficed in order to provide reliable and accurate IP data, and facilitate the IPv4 leasing process.”
The COVID-19 outbreak has sparked a server supply shortage due to the shuttering of major hardware manufacturers in China.
Internet infrastructure provider Heficed has warned that the demand cannot be served by the current stock supply has left firms without the resources to build and maintain their network infrastructure.
Inability to staff the production lines and during the lockdown has resulted in a “significant server supply shortage” in the market, Heficed said, and although many businesses have now restarted their work, they still have a long road ahead to mitigate long-term industry damage.
