Coughlin Associates launched its seventeenth report focusing on digital storage in all aspects of qualified media and entertainment.  The report involves outcomes from a 2021 study of M&E pros on their electronic storage demands.  

As a consequence of variations in the economics of storage equipment increased performance stable-condition storage is taking part in an expanding part as principal storage.   The cloud and hybrid storage which include the cloud have assumed a new significance for many workflows in the course of the Covid-19 pandemic.  When the pandemic passes, use of cloud storage will proceed to grow in the media and amusement storage sector going forward.   The growth of cloud storage revenue for M&E application from the 2022 report is demonstrated over.

Some supplemental highlights from the report:

·      The Covid-19 pandemic in 2020-2021 had a massive impact on content development in the course of 2020 and 2021, except for broadcast acquisition

·      Spending for digital cinema in 2021 and throughout the subsequent handful of decades will be impacted by the pandemic

·      Creation, Distribution & Conversion of video clip written content generates a enormous need driver for storage gadget and systems brands

·      As graphic resolution will increase and as stereoscopic VR online video gets additional frequent, storage demands explode

·      The improvement of 4K Television set and other high-resolution venues in the household and in cellular gadgets will generate the need for electronic content (especially enabled by high HEVC (H.265) and VVC (H.266) compression and even increased criteria for compression to help 8K and higher resolution and frame level workflows.

·      Activity to develop seize and show gadgets for 8K X 4K content is taking place with planned implementation in popular media methods in this ten years

·      Active archiving will push elevated use of HDD storage for “archiving” purposes, supplementing tape for very long time period archives

·      Flash memory dominates cameras and is acquiring broader use in submit-manufacturing and written content distribution systems

·      The growth in storage capacities will result in a overall media and leisure storage income development of about 2.1 X amongst 2020 and 2026 (from $9.1B to $19.2B)

·      Between 2020 and 2026 we be expecting about a 3.2 X increase in the required electronic storage capacity applied in the amusement sector and about a 4.4 X boost in storage potential transported per 12 months (from about 69EB to 304EB

·      In 2020 written content distribution is estimate at 44% of whole storage income adopted by archiving and preservation at 32%, submit-manufacturing at 5% (owing to the influence of COVID) and written content acquisition at 19%.  

·      In 2026 the projected earnings distribution is 37% written content distribution, 23% post manufacturing, 23% information acquisition and 17% archiving and preservation. 

·      By 2026 we expect about 59% of archived material to be in around-line and item storage, up from 50% in 2020 

·      In 2020 we estimate that about 72% of the overall storage media ability transported for all the digital leisure written content segments was in HDDs with electronic tape at about 21%, about 3% optical discs and flash at about 4%

·      By 2026 tape potential cargo share has been minimized to about 12%, HDDs transported capability is about 76%, optical disc potential is down to about .3% and flash capacity percentage is at about 11%

·      Media revenue is envisioned to increase about 1.8 X from 2020 to 2026 ($1.eB to $2.3B).

·      Although no for a longer time the greatest driver of electronic storage progress, the digital conversion of film, online video tape and other analog formats and its extended-expression digital preservation is nonetheless a considerable driver for archived content

·      Over 141 Exabytes of new electronic storage will be utilised for electronic archiving and written content conversion and preservation by 2026

·      Storage in remote “clouds” is enjoying an essential part in enabling collaborative workflows, information distribution and in archiving

·      Overall cloud storage capacity for media and leisure is predicted to increase above 13.8 X in between 2020 and 2026 (10.1EB to 140EB)

·      Overall object storage potential for media and leisure is predicted to mature about 5.6 X in between 2020 and 2026 (17.1EB to 96.5EB)

·      Cloud storage profits will be about $3.3B by 2026

·      By our estimates, experienced media and leisure storage potential represents about 4.9% of total transported storage capability in 2020. 

·      In 2020 expert media and entertainment consumed about 15% of all tape capability shipments, 6% of all hard disk travel shipments and 2% of all flash memory shipments.  We estimate that media and enjoyment spending was about 10% of overall storage revenue in 2020.

The media and leisure field is a major driver for digital storage growth and improvement, together with all varieties of storage media and storage technologies.  Particularly, remote M&E workflows are driving cloud-centered storage growth.
