Residential and small and medium enterprises segments are expected to lead the global consumer network attached storage market throughout the forecast period

Growing popularity of network attached storage to attain cost-effective solutions for data storage and increase in adoption of network attached storage systems by small and medium enterprises is the major factor likely to result in high revenue growth in the small and medium enterprises end user segment during the predicted period. Increasing utilization of network attached storage systems is another potential driver for small and medium enterprises, especially in emerging economies.

This adoption of network attached storage systems among smaller organizations is mainly driven by the benefits offered by network attached storage systems such as shared storage, centralized control, and flexibility to share capacity between multiple hosts.

Deployment of network attached storage systems can facilitate the reduction in total cost of ownership for enterprises and small business owners. Management of a centralized storage location is more cost-effective than managing traditional client/server storage models. Additionally, network attached storage system architecture eliminates the possibility of disk space going unused or disk failure, as storage devices are now consolidated. This further lowers the overall storage costs.

Benefits such as lower cost of ownership and a higher Return on Information Management offered by network attached storage devices are expected to further drive the growth of the small and medium enterprises segment. With the integration of high performance backup and restore capability and device sharing, several performance issues can be alleviated.

These issues include performance degradation, shrinking backup windows, and extended downtime periods. However, increase in the overall backup operation efficiency with server-less backup offered by network attached storage systems architecture is fueling the growth of the residential segment of the global network attached storage market.

With computing environments making a paradigm shift from server-centric to data-centric models, efficient access to shared data resources is becoming critical. This prolific growth in information that needs to be stored, managed, maintained, and retrieved has compelled consumers to make storage decisions separate from server decisions. This, in turn, is driving the growth of both the residential and small and medium enterprises segments.
