Growing Adoption of Cloud Backup Solutions and Services to Augment Growth of the Cloud Backup Market
A virtual backup service, cloud backup (also known as remote
backup or online backup), is a program that provides computer users with an
automated system for the storage, backup, and retrieval of their data. Cloud
backup can be used to create, edit, manage, and restore data. Cloud backup
offers several advantages over traditional methods, such as data availability
at remote locations, user-friendly technology, real-time data accessibility,
low cost of implementation, etc. It widely finds its application in
telecommunication, healthcare, and many other sectors.
Market Dynamics:
Growing adoption of cloud backup solution and services due to
huge volume of data generation is expected to propel the growth of the cloud
backup market. For instance, in February 2021, IDrive launched a new service
called ZipDrive which allows users to create their own personal edge cloud to
access, stream, edit, and share their local files from anywhere.
Moreover, increasing demand for cloud-based services and the
growing demand for remote workspaces with COVID-19 outbreak is expected to
drive the global cloud serving market growth during the forecast period. For instance,
in May 2020, Microsoft announced the launch of the Microsoft Cloud for
Healthcare, to tackle COVID-19 challenges, an industry-specific cloud solution
for healthcare organizations to improve workflow efficiency.
Growing adoption cloud backup among Small and medium-sized
enterprises (SMEs) and increasing adoption of hybrid cloud is expected to offer
lucrative growth opportunities for players in the cloud
backup market. However, rising concerns regarding data privacy and
governance are expected to restrain the growth of the cloud backup market.
North America and Asia Pacific are expected to witness
significant growth in the cloud backup market due to the increasing demand for
cloud-enabling technologies in these regions. For instance, in February 2021,
Tata Communications and Google Cloud teamed up to drive Cloud transformation in
India.
