Market Dynamics of Software-Defined Data Centre Market

Key Drivers for Software-Defined Data Centre Market

Increased Adoption of Digitalisation Drives Market Growth

The growing adoption of digitalisation is expected to drive the growth of the software-defined data Centre market. Digitalisation is being adopted more widely due to the need for increased productivity, lower operational costs, faster decision-making, increased efficiency, technological advancements, stakeholder push for digitalisation, and other factors. The growing adoption of digitalisation will generate a massive amount of data that must be stored, highlighting the need for software-defined data Centres. This need for data Centres will result in a high demand for data Centre services such as setup, management, and operation. For instance, in February 2024, Amazon UK, a UK-based e-commerce company, reported that the use of AI by UK businesses increased by 31% between 2022 and 2023. Furthermore, the adoption of digital technology and AI could boost the UK economy by £520 billion by 2030, helping the country achieve its goal of becoming a tech superpower by 2028. As a result, the growing adoption of digitalisation will propel the software-defined data Centre market forward.

The global External Hard Drive market was valued at USD 33.48 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 80.63 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 11.6% for the forecast period 2023-2030. Factors Affecting External Hard Drive Market Growth

Growing adoption of smart devices

Over the last few years, there has been a rapid increase in smart device adoption and internet penetration. Smart devices offer flexibility to patients on a smartphone or tablet. With a mobile device, users are simply able to access several contents. According to a study, the number of unique mobile internet users in 2020 was 4.28 billion, and more than 90% of the worldwide internet population has access to the internet via a mobile device. This rapid expansion benefitted the external hard drives market.

Growing demand and popularity for external SSDs to propel market growth

The Restraining Factor of External Hard Drive

Rising usage of cloud storage

Many users have started using cloud storage services like Google Drive, Dropbox, iCloud, and others. The advantage that cloud storage has is convenience which means users can access the files from any computer without special hardware. This hampers the growth of the external hard drive market.

Current Trends on External Hard Drive

Hard drive interface development

Hard drive interface development in recent years has been driven not just by the demand for faster and bigger data transfers, but also by the requirement for more efficient and secure data storage. In the future, some of the trends that may shape the hard drive interface landscape include Optane memory, a hybrid technology that combines the speed of SSDs with the capacity of HDDs; RRAM, a non-volatile memory that uses resistive switching; heat-assisted magnetic recording, a technique that uses a laser to heat up a small area of the magnetic disk before writing data; shingled magnetic recording, which writes data in overlapping tracks on the magnetic disk; and helium. These improvements outperform traditional approaches in terms of density, latency, power consumption, endurance, friction, noise, heat, and power consumption. As a result, the demand for external hard drives will rise.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the External Hard Drive Market

The COVID-19 epidemic has quickly spread over the world. People are being forced to stay at home in order to prevent the virus from spreading. The growing number of individuals staying at home has boosted Internet usage, which is increasing demand for online video/audio streaming, downloading, and video conferencing on apps like Zoom. The increased Internet traffic during the shutdown has resulted in massive volumes of data that must be managed by data center facilities all across the world. Data centers handle massive volumes of data, which promotes the use of hard disks and, as a result, market growth. However, the lockdown has closed manufacturing facilities across the globe which hinders the sales of the external hard drive market. According to the Seagate report, the business supplied 120.2 Exabytes of hard disk drive (HDD) storage capacity in CQ1 2020, with an average HDD size of 4.1 TB (or 29.3 M HDDs). This is a 9.3% decrease from the CQ4 2019 quarter. At the same time, its HDD average sales prices (ASPs) grew to $86.21 (a 12.5% rise over Seagate's ASP in CQ4 2019). While total delivered HDDs decreased, overall HDD revenue climbed by around 1.8% quarter over quarter (due to increasing sales of larger capacity and higher cost per unit HDDs). Introduction of External Hard Drive

An external hard drive is a device that can be connected to the computer to expand its storage capacity. It is attached to the outside of the computer and connects to it via USB. Users can copy files onto it just like it would with any other folder. Similar to flash drives, users can plug the external hard drive into any computer and transfer files between them. These drives are perfect for backing up computers and transferring data between different devices. Unlike the hard drive installed in a computer, an external hard drive is portable and can be used to store files from multiple devices. They are easy to use, convenient, and a very safe way to backup important files. Most external hard drives have a minimum capacity of one terabyte (1TB), which is equivalent to 1000 gigabytes (GB) or 1,000,000 megabytes (MB). Peop...

In 2023, software and tech hosting/cloud services/MSP companies had a much higher spending share on IT than other industries, amounting to ** percent and ** percent of their revenues, respectively. By contrast, the consumer products and services industry invested only around **** percent of their revenue in IT. Overall, all industries increased their IT spending per revenue share in 2023 compared to the previous year. Cloud computing Cloud computing is an essential IT service that utilizes a network of distant servers hosted over the Internet to store, handle, and process data. This segment of IT services was projected to generate revenues exceeding *** billion U.S. dollars in 2024 and is expected to continue its rapid growth trajectory. Managed Services Providers (MSPs) provide companies with the expertise and technical support to manage their cloud infrastructure and products without the need for in-house specialists. Cloud computing is segmented into three main categories. Software as a Service (SaaS) delivers software applications over the Internet, on a subscription basis, freeing companies from software and hardware management. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) offers a virtualized computing infrastructure managed over the Internet, allowing businesses to avoid the costs and complexities of purchasing and managing physical servers and data center infrastructure. Platform as a Service (PaaS) provides a platform allowing customers to develop, run, and manage applications without the complexity of building and maintaining the infrastructure.
