The next-generation data storage market is expected to be valued at USD 144.76 Billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 16.76% between 2016 and 2022. Some of the key factors driving this market are the increasing volume of digital data, increasing proliferation of smartphones, laptops, and tablets, and growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) market. However, delivering robust and high-speed data storage acts as challenges to the next-generation data storage market.

Network-attached storage (NAS) is expected to lead the market in 2022. The demand for NAS is increasing because of higher growth of big data and the Internet of Things (IoT) market. The market for cloud storage systems is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The enterprises today are focusing on advanced storage systems to gain competitive edge over their competitors. The major factors driving the cloud storage system market include increasing demand for hybrid cloud storage, growing need for enterprise mobility, and ease of deployment of cloud storage solutions.

The object-based storage is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR, among all other storage architecture in the next-generation data storage market. The growing demand for object-based storage is owing to its greater scalability and resilience than other storage architecture. The infrastructure issues associated with increasing data growth are solved by object storage by simply adding additional nodes to the existing architecture. Object storage also provides high level of data security by storing multiple copies of data over distributed network while mitigating the cost. Also, object storage offers inexpensive operational efficiency for cloud to allow data movement back and forth without application change. Through data management software, large amount of data can be stored at low cost on a read-only basis.

The solid-state storage is the fastest growing segment in data storage technology owing to its high performance and fast operation. Hybrid flash arrays led the solid-state storage market in 2015. As adoption of new technologies is relatively slow in the data storage market, hybrid storage offers cost optimization with required performance. Therefore, organizations prefer to have hybrid storage array than shifting the data infrastructure to an entirely new technology.

Among all the major end-user industry applications of the next-generation data storage, the market for the healthcare industry is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The need for data storage in the healthcare industry is mostly due to improvements in data analytics, adoption of wearable technology for health monitoring, and scientific research. Patient records including e-mails, back office, tracking records, and so on requires high-capacity data storage. Next-generation data storage offers scalable and secured solutions, allowing economic growth as the dataset increases and performance needs change. Therefore, the healthcare industry is expected to adopt next-generation data storage at the highest rate.

In terms of geographic regions, North America held the largest share of the next-generation data storage market in 2015. The key driving factors for increasing adoption of next-generation data storage devices in this region are fast-growing BFSI, consumer goods and retail, and telecommunications and ITES markets which demand for advanced data storage to boost productivity and profitability through efficient data management.

Also, the adoption of smart technologies such as big data, IoT, and virtualization in North America is generating need for IT infrastructure to manage a large amount of data, every industry in North America is being digitized and demands advanced data storage solutions. All these factors are driving the growth of next-generation data storage market in North America region.

Lack of structured data and lack of data security in cloud and server-based storage are the major restraints for the growth of the next-generation data storage market.

Dell Inc. (U.S.) is one of the leading companies in the next-generation data storage market, followed by HPE Company (U.S.), providing advanced flash and hybrid flash arrays to address the performance challenges in the data storage market. Companies are strengthening their product portfolio with hybrid cloud storage which is one of the major trends in this market. The key players in this market adopted inorganic growth strategies and are undertaking partnerships and collaborations to acquire new technologies.
