The storage and backup software market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $19.13 billion in 2023 to $20.49 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1%. The expansion observed during the historical period can be attributed to factors such as the adoption of virtualization and cloud computing technologies, enterprise IT modernization initiatives, the emphasis on disaster recovery solutions, the rapid growth of data volume, and the increasing focus on data security and compliance measures.
The storage and backup software market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $28.79 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.9%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing adoption of hybrid and multi-cloud solutions, the rising concerns regarding ransomware and cybersecurity threats, the growth of edge computing, and the expanding applications of data analytics and artificial intelligence. Notable trends expected during the forecast period encompass the continued implementation of hybrid and multi-cloud strategies, the integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning, the utilization of software-defined storage (SDS), and the uptake of backup as a service (BaaS) and disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) solutions.
The storage and backup software market is expected to benefit from the increasing volume of data and heightened awareness among organizations regarding the need to back up and safeguard their data. Furthermore, the growing adoption of cloud-based technologies and the demand for storage and data protection across enterprises are driving the market's growth. It is estimated that over 72% of global enterprises will transition from on-premise data centers to cloud storage by 2022.
The rising adoption of cloud-based technologies is anticipated to propel the storage and backup software market in the foreseeable future. Cloud-based technologies provide computing resources and services over the internet, typically on a subscription or pay-as-you-go basis. Efficient data management, data protection, and disaster recovery solutions are essential in the context of cloud-based technologies. Cloud services offer scalability, cost-effectiveness, and automation, addressing the increasing need for data security and regulatory compliance. For example, in December 2021, Eurostat reported that 41% of EU enterprises utilized cloud computing, with a focus on hosting e-mail systems and storing electronic files, representing a 5-percentage point increase from 2020. Large EU businesses adopted cloud computing at a rate of 72% in 2021, marking a 7-percentage point increase from 2020.
Concerns about data privacy and governance are expected to restrain the growth of the storage and backup software market. Security issues, such as data protection and governance, stemming from threats like hacking and espionage, hinder the widespread deployment of cloud storage and related software for storage and backup. Industries like BFSI, healthcare, and retail exhibit reluctance to invest in the market due to these security concerns, limiting its growth potential.
An emerging trend in the storage and backup software market is the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) applications that can generate, store, and protect data. AI-based applications possess the capability to independently create and verify the source of information before adding knowledge to a database. They also help refine database management policies, align data with database capabilities, and assess metadata across organizational storage infrastructure. For instance, a major vendor in the storage and backup software field, Commvault, introduced new backup and recovery software integrated with AI. This software enhances the efficiency and effectiveness of data backup and recovery by analyzing patterns and performance.
Leading companies in the storage and backup software market are developing hybrid and multi-cloud solutions for storage to gain a competitive advantage. Hybrid and multi-cloud strategies involve utilizing multiple cloud environments to meet an organization's computing and data storage requirements. For example, in November 2022, NetApp, Inc. launched BlueXP, a unified control plane designed for data storage and services in hybrid and multi-cloud environments. BlueXP streamlines operations and addresses the complexities of distributed IT and data management by offering unified storage management, integrated intelligence, and centralized management of flexible consumption models.
In September 2021, Hewlett Packard Enterprise acquired Zerto for $374 million, enhancing its data protection and management capabilities. This acquisition expanded Hewlett Packard Enterprise's portfolio and positioned the company to better serve evolving data-centric needs while driving recurring revenue. Zerto specializes in cloud data management and protection solutions, including disaster recovery and data mobility services for diverse cloud environments.
