The global storage software market size reached US$ 24.4 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, the analyst expects the market to reach US$ 38.9 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 8% during 2023-2028.
Storage software refers to an application-based storage architecture that manages storage on a data center, private cloud or virtualization platform. It enables a user to monitor and manage existing data storage requirements and predict future needs. The software is majorly used for data protection and recovery, device management, storage replication and virtualization and archiving. It can automatically make necessary adjustments based on the capacity needs of the user and perform tasks, create new connections and operate hardware without needing the administrator’s intervention. In comparison to the traditionally used tools, such as network-attached (NAS) and storage area network (SAN) systems, SDS minimizes the software’s dependency on the proprietary hardware. Owing to this, it finds extensive applications across various industries, including telecommunications, information technology (IT), banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI), manufacturing and retail.
The emerging trend of digitization, along with the increasing adoption of cloud-based storage software, is one of the key factors driving the growth of the market. With a rapid increase in the volume of digital data generated by the organizations, there is widespread adoption of storage software to manage unstructured and disorganized data. In line with this, the integration of automation across industries is also providing a boost to the market growth. Various technological advancements, such as the development of the Internet of Things (IoT), have enabled organizations to store their data on the cloud and access it remotely, which is also contributing to the market growth. Additionally, the advent of hyper-converged infrastructure technology is acting as another major growth-inducing factor. This technology runs storage, computational activities and networking systems in a virtualized environment for space optimization and optimal utilization of resources.
