Market Dynamics- Drivers

1. Incapability of conventional storage facilities to handle a large amount of data is expected to drive growth of the global consumer network attached storage (NAS) market during the forecast period

The conventional modes of storage of critical information and data have become inefficient for current demands. Moreover, fast access to vast amounts of data is another major challenge in this scenario. Conventional small computer systems interface (SCSI) technology utilizes parallel cabling, which reduces speed, distance, and limits the number of attached storage devices. Furthermore, there has been a significant shift from server-centric to data-centric models, thus efficient access to shared data resources has become essential. Rising growth of information that requires storage, management, maintenance, and retrieval has compelled consumers to make storage decisions separate from server decisions. Hence, these factors are expected to drive the market growth over the forecast period.

1. Growing demand for efficient and easy backup operations is expected to propel the global consumer network attached storage (NAS) market over the forecast period

Incorporation of high performance backup and restore capability and device sharing, numerous issues regarding performance have been improved. These issues are namely extended downtime periods, shrinking backup windows, and performance degradation. However, increase in backup operation competence with server-less backup offered by NAS architecture is expected to propel the global consumer network attached storage (NAS) market growth over the forecast period.

The North America market for global Consumer Network Attached Storage (NAS) market is estimated to account for 30.3% share in terms of value in 2019.

Market Dynamics- Restraint

1. Growing adoption of cloud-based storage devices is various emerging economies is expected to restrain growth of the global consumer network attached storage (NAS) market over the forecast period

Previously, servers for storage purposes were procured at different IT infrastructure components by different groups within the IT department and under different parts of the IT budget. However, incorporation of cloud-based services has changed the overall approach. Furthermore, adoption of virtualization technique in storage and server has resulted in significant shift in procurement and deployment of data center infrastructure. E Enterprises are shifting from purchasing separate network attached storage systems and adopting cloud storage for noncritical data. These factors are expected to hinder the market growth in the near future.

1. High cost and complexity related to NAS are expected to hinder the global consumer network attached storage (NAS) market growth over the forecast period

Although NAS provides highly sophisticated services, it is relatively expensive and complicated proprietary at the same time. NAS systems are considered to be virtually failure-proof though major performance failures and outages in the cloud in the recent past have been related to failures of significant degradation or NAS in system performance. Moreover, high cost and complicated nature of NAS is compelling end user to shift towards cloud for high-performance and reliable storage. This, in turn, is expected to hamper the market growth over the forecast period.

Market Trends

1. Penetration of e-commerce websites is increasing adoption of NAS

Growing adoption of online channels among consumers, has increased penetration of e-commerce websites in the recent past. These e-commerce applications are highly resource-intensive due to the type of requests that are processed simultaneously per second. Thousands of customers visit, place orders, and pay, per second, and all this information is required to be stored in the database for later retrieval. Furthermore, NASs are being used for their high-performance and fast I/O characteristics, in order to store information about high traffic databases.

1. Advent of unified storage systems is another major trend in the market

Advent and adoption of hybrid NAS-SAN solutions has become a major trend in the market. These solutions facilitate enterprises to merge file-based and block data on a common way. Unified storage systems support file, along with block-based protocols such as FC and NFS, and HDD and flash-based storage drives. Architecture of unified storage systems is relatively more complicated as compared to individual implementations though it is expected to be more simplified in the near future, in order to meet increasing demand from enterprises. These developments are expected to reduce the dependency of enterprises on a single architecture for their dynamic requirements.
