"Frame relay was the mainstay of corporate data networking as recently as just a few years ago. However, the service is coming under increased competitive pressure, which is impacting revenue growth. A wide range of service providers offer frame relay service, driving down pricing, and competition from new technology — namely IP VPNs — is also impacting usage of frame relay services." — Rena Bhattacharyya, program manager, Worldwide Telecom Markets
