Only the smallest companies do not use NAS with cloud services.
The advent of cloud storage services does not imply the end of SMB Nas, but is expected to increase its market revenue to more than 2 billion dollars by 2015.
According to the results published by isuppli, today about seven-tenths of the small and medium-sized enterprises using cloud storage services are still using NAS systems.
According to a recent survey by Theinfopro, only 10% of corporate-level companies are considering using a public cloud for storage.
Last month, in 247 surveys of Fortune 1000, published. When asked about "storage as a service", 87% of respondents said they had no plans to use the public cloud, 10% said they would use 3% of the uncertainty.
However, SMB Nas is only a small part of the NAS market. SMB Nas is expected to grow at a faster rate over the next four years. North America and Europe are expected to occupy 84.6% of the SMB NAS market revenue.
"As the market matures, it also gives Nas a new definition," Isuppli's vice president Norm Bogen said in a statement. "In particular, there are several reasons why system management software has become an important feature of Nas, but mostly because it is more convenient for users when it comes to building and managing NAS products."
According to the survey, 57.3% of the respondents used NAS technology products. Those who did not use NAS tended to be companies with fewer than 50 employees.
