The anticipated growth in data traffic is expected to drive the expansion of the storage and server support services market in the coming years. Organizational data traffic refers to the significant bandwidth utilized for highly active and continuous network traffic routes. Solutions for storage and server support are essential for managing and maintaining organizational data traffic and applications, whether on-site or off-site, aimed at optimizing data operations while reducing costs. For example, a report by Ericsson, a Sweden-based telecommunications company, noted that from Q4 2023 to Q1 2024, mobile network data traffic grew by approximately 6 percent quarter-on-quarter, reaching a total of 145 exabytes (EB) for that month. Thus, the rise in data traffic is a key factor propelling the growth of the storage and server support services market.
The growing demand for cloud-based services is anticipated to drive the expansion of the storage and server support services market in the future. Cloud-based services encompass a wide range of IT resources delivered over the internet by third-party providers. Storage and server support services include various offerings such as data storage, backup solutions, server maintenance, and technical support to ensure the smooth operation of cloud infrastructure. For example, a report by Eurostat, a Luxembourg-based intergovernmental organization, revealed that as of December 2023, 42.5% of enterprises in the EU had purchased cloud computing services, mainly for email, file storage, and office software. This marks a 4.2 percentage point increase from 2021. Thus, the rising demand for cloud-based services is fueling the growth of the storage and server support services market.
