An enterprise storage system is a centralized depository where business data and information are stored for a period of time depending on the requirements of an organization. The stored information can serve as a backup in case of any disaster or system failure. Enterprise storage includes hard disk drives (HDD) and solid-state drive (SSD) devices that are commonly used in storage area network (SAN), network attached storage (NAS), and direct attached storage (DAS) environments. An enterprise storage system offers benefits such as data sharing, disaster recovery, and high accessibility, restoration functions, and reliable and efficient backup, as well as remote support and centralized administration. Enterprise storage has come a long way in the last 60 years, but data explosion, due to IoT, AI, and social media has completely transformed storage requirements. Data Storage Market Share is highly concentrated among Dell, NetApp, and HP.

The chart shows the Data Storage Market Size from 2015 to 2026. In 2019, the size of the Data Storage Industry was $48B and is projected to grow 4% in 2020. From 2015 to 2026 the Data Storage Industry growth is projected to average 3% per year. The top 4 vendors own over 50% of Data Storage Market Share. These estimates were made before the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The short term impact of COVID-19 on the Data Storage market growth will likely be High because overall spending on IT infrastructure will decrease as companies temporarily shut down and employees are laid off or furloughed. The probable scenario assumes a broad negative impact starting in China and spreading into other regions before slowing toward the end of the year. Elements of the impact include changing demand expectations from various groups of IT buyers, supply chain shortages and logistical delays, short-term component price increases, and a suppressed economic and social climate. The long term impact of COVID-19 on the Data Storage market growth beyond the COVID-19 pandemic will likely be Medium because facing economic uncertainty, many businesses are being forced to consider more expedited adoption of cloud services to fulfill their compute and storage needs. This spike in demand put unplanned pressure on the IT infrastructure in cloud service provider data centers leading to the growing demand for servers and system components. As a result, the IT Infrastructure market has two submarkets going in different directions: decreasing demand from enterprise buyers and increasing demand from cloud service providers.
