The huge amount of raw data that is being generated daily is creating a data storage crisis for companies.

The overall input /output operations per second (IOPS) are growing exponentially, causing companies to face

increasing delays with data storage and retrieval. There are endless concerns in the market over the

availability and security of data stored in offshore data centers around the world, further compounded due to

recent data center outages. It is essential that storage systems are highly available and offer comprehensive

backup in case of an emergency. Although organizations continuously seek high performance tools to

increase their overall efficiency, cost is the single major issue that enterprise IT departments face when it

comes to overhauling their infrastructure.

Flash storage providers are aiming to provide an overall cost effective experience to customers through

advanced compression techniques. The current global market for enterprise flash storage is at $500 million

and is expected to reach $1.6 billion by 2016, at an astounding CAGR that is close to 60%. This rapid growth

is being driven by the technological improvements that decrease the costs.

This report provides a deeper insight into the strategies of the key market players and gives a broad overview

of the flash market, including market share and applications across various industry segments. Key players in

the industry such as EMC, NetApp, Oracle and PureStorage currently hold over 90% of the present flash

storage market. At present, North America is the dominant market for flash storage with most of technology

companies headquartered in the region. However, APAC is growing twice as fast as North America with its

huge trove of cheap skilled workforce. Over the past 4 years, the cost of flash memory per gigabyte has

dropped by 30%, resulting in more companies opting for flash memory for their high performance storage

needs.
