Cloud-native storage refers to storage solutions designed specifically to operate within cloud computing environments, leveraging the scalability, flexibility, and distributed nature of the cloud. These storage systems are optimized for deployment in cloud-native architectures, which typically involve microservices, containers, and orchestration platforms.
The main types of components in cloud native storage are solutions and services. A solution refers to a comprehensive approach or set of technologies, tools, and practices designed to address storage requirements and challenges specific to cloud-native environments. It includes various deployments by the public cloud, private cloud, and hybrid cloud, which are used for different applications including backup and recovery, content delivery, big data and analytics, data archiving, database storage management, and end-users are banking, financial services and insurance, information technology and telecom, healthcare, retail and consumer goods, manufacturing, government, energy and utilities, media and entertainment, and others.

The cloud native storage market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $24.05 billion in 2024 to $29.25 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increased data explosion, increased containerization trend, increased cost efficiency, increased enhanced flexibility and scalability, API-driven architectures.
The cloud native storage market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $62.67 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.0%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing edge computing growth, increasing multi-cloud adoption, increasing security and compliance requirements, increasing focus on performance optimization. Major trends in the forecast period include hybrid cloud solutions, adoption of cloud technologies, data management and orchestration tools, persistent storage for stateful applications, security-driven storage solutions.
The growing adoption of hybrid and multi-cloud strategies is expected to propel the growth of the cloud-native storage market going forward. Hybrid and multi-cloud strategies refer to the use of multiple cloud services, such as public and private clouds, from different providers to meet various business needs. The adoption of hybrid and multi-cloud strategies is due to increased due to efficient streamline processes, several factors that address the evolving needs of businesses, organizations, and individuals. Cloud-native storage is used in hybrid and multi-cloud strategies to provide organizations with the flexibility, scalability, and resilience needed to manage data across diverse cloud environments. For instance, in December 2023, according to reports published by Cloudzero, a US-based software-as-a-service company, most of the organizations will deploy a hybrid cloud in 2022 (39%), an increase of 3% from the previous year (36% in 2021). Therefore, the growing adoption of hybrid and multi-cloud strategies is driving the growth of the cloud-native storage market.
