Global Future-proof Data Storage Power Development Status
Countries are classified into four categories based on storage capacity adequacy ratio (measuring sufficiency) and SSD penetration rate (measuring advancement).
Have reasonable targets and comprehensive raft of policies, foster industry-academia collaboration, and encourage leading enterprises to adopt SSD-based solutions.
Have only a few sectors, such as government, finance, oil & gas, and the Internet, where SSD-based solutions have been adopted.
Already possess abundant data center resources, yet have been slow in replacing HDD with future-proof data storage solutions.
Have a lower degree of automation, lack of attention to solution-level TCO, and limited investment in SSD-based advanced solutions.
