Enterprise Data Storage Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges
Based on our research output, there has been a neutral impact on the market growth during and post-COVID-19 era. The increased adoption of cloud applications is notably driving the enterprise data storage market growth, although factors such as high operating expenses for vendors may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the enterprise data storage industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Enterprise Data Storage Market Driver
One of the key factors driving the enterprise data storage market is the growing demand for IoT and big data operations. There will be around 40 billion Internet-connected devices by the end of 2022 worldwide, which is expected to contribute significantly to the growth of the global enterprise data storage market as connected devices will lead to the generation of huge volumes of data. Furthermore, IoT devices demand an energy-efficient network of smart nodes that need to be always interconnected. This also increases the use of enterprise data storage, which helps in saving the data even when the power of the device is off. Moreover, big data analytics has triggered the high-tech expansion of data centers. On-the-go business is a popular trend, and it has been made viable through technological advances within devices such as mobile phones and tablets. Data is continuously being fed into storage systems. For predictive and consumer analytics operations, enterprises use these big data sets. In fact, enterprises have started procuring high-performance storage in data centers such as SAN and NAS systems to enhance their performance. Therefore, with an increase in the demand for big data analytics, the demand for enterprise data storage will also rise during the forecast period.
Key Enterprise Data Storage Market Trend
Software-defined storage is another factor supporting the enterprise data storage market growth in the forecast period. SDS is a form of storage virtualization that is used to separate software services and hardware services. Software services include data administration, data safety, and input/output (I/O) capabilities. The separation of services helps increase the flexibility, scalability, and automation capabilities of enterprise data storage infrastructure. SDS also reduces the overall cost of enterprise storage devices by reconfiguring storage resources that include various systems at a virtualization layer. Moreover, the technology enables resource pooling, abstraction, and automated management while offering storage solutions. It also offers support for legacy applications, big data analytics, and cloud-based data applications. The requirement for efficient data storage is increasing the demand for SDS. Therefore, several vendors, such as EMC, NetApp, and IBM, are offering SDS-enabled storage infrastructure. Adopting new SSD arrays will cost lesser compared to reconfiguring the existing arrays.
Key Enterprise Data Storage Market Challenge
High operating expenses for vendors will be a major challenge for the enterprise data storage market during the forecast period. Depending upon the end-user requirement, different specifications of enterprise data storage need to be designed and developed, which is an expensive task as it requires a high level of speculation in R&D processes. In addition, cloud service providers experience cyclical demand patterns, which create a mismatch between the demand and the supply. This is because of fluctuations in demand from end-user segments, and the market depends highly on the success of devices such as smartphones, tablet PCs, and consumer devices. Moreover, vendors try to align their production with the revenue, but an unexpected and unforeseen change in demand can lead to an oversupply or shortage situation, disturbing the cost during the manufacturing process for storage solutions. In addition, the increasing design complexity of enterprise data storage solutions is hindering the growth of the global enterprise data storage market.
This enterprise data storage market analysis report also provides detailed information on other upcoming trends and challenges that will have a far-reaching effect on the market growth.
