Japan Storage Software 2008-2012 Forecast and First Half 2008 Analysis

Abstract

This IDC study, which is a translation of the Japanese report IDC #J9440101, presents the Japan storage software market' s revenue performance in 1H08 as well as forecasts from 2008 to 2012. IDC classifies the storage software market into the following eight submarkets and provides an analysis of each submarket: data protection/recovery software, storage replication software, archive software, storage management software, storage device management software, storage infrastructure software, file system software, and other storage software. IDC also analyzes the market size and market trends by the mainframe — Unix, Windows, Linux, and other OS environment.

"Growth in the storage software market is basically due to data proliferation and the demand caused by consolidation and efficient management of storage infrastructure. Storage software investment areas such as compliance-related demand, storage consolidation, and storage virtualization are expected to increase in the future. In addition, for data protection that has been implemented by user companies, it is necessary to focus on growth areas such as continuous data protection (CDP) and data protection in a client environment," analyzes Toshihiko Tsutsui, senior market analyst, Storage Systems, IDC Japan.
