Global Data Storage Market Segmental Overview


The report analyses the global Data Storage Market based on storage system, end-user, and region

Global Data Storage Market by Storage system


By Storage System, the Data Storage Market is segmented into Direct-Attached Storage, Network-Attached Storage, and Storage Area Network. The Direct-Attached Storage segment held the largest market share of xx% in 2022 and is expected to grow at a significant CAGR over the forecast period. Direct Attached Storage (DAS) is the oldest and most conventional data storage system connected directly to a computer, such as a server or PC, unlike other storage systems connected to a computer over a network.

DAS offers specific benefits compared to other storage systems that play an essential role in many organizations' storage strategies: high performance, easiness during the setup and configuration, fast access to data, and low cost. Generally, DAS offers high storage performance to the computer system it is directly attached to, owing to the advantage of fast computer bus interfaces, such as SAS and SATA, and the close location of data to the system's RAM and processor. Recently, in May 2022, TerraMaster launched a new 8-bay direct-attached storage (DAS) device for customers who need a central location to store a lot of data. Unlike NAS, DAS is used locally through the use of cables that directly connect to a PC or other device. The new TerraMaster D8-332 is professional RAID storage with a capacity of up to 160TB.

One common application of DAS is in data centres. Applications such as web hosting use DAS, where customers want their own private storage devices connected to their dedicated server. DAS is also commonly utilized in data centres as storage used for booting the operating systems and/or hypervisors. The integrated solutions segment is expected to register the highest CAGR over the forecast period. Integrated solutions offered in the market include cloud and software services. The software solution assists in digitizing assets, optimizing operations, providing flexibility, and improving reliability.

Global Data Storage Market by End-user


By end-user, the Data Storage Market is segmented into Media and Entertainment, Education, IT and Telecommunications, Defence and Aerospace, Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI), Cloud Service Providers, and Others. The cloud service providers segment is projected to emerge as one of the fastest-growing segments in the market for next-generation data storage over the forecast period. Cloud computing is likely to play a massive role in the development of next-generation machines. Moreover, the increased adoption of cloud technologies such as hybrid cloud, IoT, BDaaS, and PaaS, is likely to necessitate cloud service providers to utilize next-generation data storage solutions to better cater to their customers.

Geographical Analysis of Global Data Storage Market

Region-wise, it is studied across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World. North America dominated the market for next-generation data storage in 2022, accounting for a nearly xx% revenue share of the global market. This can be attributed to the large volume of unstructured data across several industry verticals and the need for secure and economic solutions for storing data. Easy availability of technologically advanced products such as 3D and molecular storage is likely to further fuel growth prospects of the North American market over the forecast period.

Major Players in the Global Data Storage Market

The key players in the market are IBM Corporation, NetApp Inc., Microsoft Corporation, Pure Storage Inc., Dell Inc., Samsung Electronics, Toshiba Corporation, Fujitsu Ltd., Hewlett Packard Enterprise, and Intel Corporation, among others.

COVID-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak has positively impacted the market for next-generation storage, especially solutions that are used in cloud storage. Storage vendors are making some of their hardware and software technology available for no charge to help researchers, businesses, work-from-home users, and partners run their businesses and work remotely during the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic.

Recent Developments:

In October 2021, Dell Technologies announced new additions to its Dell EMC PowerScale portfolio. PowerScale is the company’s integrated network-attached storage (NAS) solution for AI-based initiatives, from proof of concept to deployment.

In April 2021, IBM announced plans to launch a new container-native software-defined storage (SDS) solution, IBM Spectrum Fusion, in the second half of 2021. The solution was expected to be designed to fuse IBM's general parallel file system technology and its data protection software to give businesses and their applications a simple and less complex approach to accessing data seamlessly within the data centre, at the edge and across hybrid cloud environments.
