Data Growth
June 4, 2009
IDC published a new white paper. You can get information about the document here. Scanning the abstract and report a factoid warranted snagging; to wit:
IDC found that companies are increasing their file-based storage by 40% to 120% a year
This means that if an organization has one terabyte of data today, storage will be needed for 1.4 to 3.0 more data next year. I heard an executive from a transportation firm say its data growth was 4X per year. What’s clear is that digital data breeds like gerbils. Findability is simple, according to the azure chip consultants. Wanna bet?
