Software-defined storage (SDS) refers to a data management technology that separates storage resources and functionality from the underlying physical hardware. It is a software layer between the physical storage and data request that provides storage access services, connectivity, and networking facilities to the users. SDS is widely used for storage provisioning, hybrid cloud implementation, data backup, surveillance, data center modernization, and ruggedized systems. It is a flexible, cost-effective, scalable, agile, and highly efficient storage architecture that minimizes latency issues and reduces downtime. It also simplifies management, increases automation, improves visibility, and enhances transparency in monitoring and managing storage. As a result, SDS finds extensive applications across the banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI), information technology (IT), telecommunication, government, education, entertainment, healthcare, and manufacturing industries.
Software Defined Storage Market Trends:
The rising software utilization in the BFSI industry is one of the primary factors driving the market growth. SDS is widely used for handling massive data sets, limiting file access with encryption, data backup and recovery, and providing highly secure storage capabilities to financial institutions, which, in turn, reduce capital expenditure, improve scalability, and enhance efficiency. Furthermore, the increasing adoption of cloud-based platforms by organizations due to their cost-effectiveness and high efficiency is facilitating the demand for SDS to create a unified storage volume that aids in overcoming data management difficulties and improving compatibility between on-site and cloud-storage devices. Additionally, the introduction of blockchain-based SDS solutions that maintain the integrity, security, authenticity, and immutability of customers’ stored data through highly secured protocols and provides faster data recovery, which in turn is positively influencing the market growth. Moreover, the rising software adoption as a reliable, less complex, and scalable solution to store, manage, and process large amounts of unstructured data generated by advanced technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), machine learning (ML), genomics, and data analytics is propelling the market growth. Apart from this, the widespread software adoption in military applications to strengthen communication capabilities between warfighters, allow seamless integration of next-generation hardware, and enable continuity of operation planning (COOP) through synchronous mirroring is providing an impetus to the market growth. Other factors, including growing digitalization, increasing consumer awareness regarding various benefits of SDS over traditional data storage methods, and rising investment in research and development (R&D) activities, are anticipated to drive the market growth.
