Study by analyst Jim Handy, Objective Analysi

The acceptance of SSDs in enterprise servers and storage systems is only going to get stronger, leading to rapid market growth. That’s the key finding of a new study: Enterprise SSDs: Technologies & Markets ($5,000) introduced by Objective Analysis.

The columns & left vertical axis are capacity. Black is the capacity visible to the user and orange is spare capacity for background tasks like garbage collection and hidden erase cycles. The red line and right axis are the terabytes written, which increase with increasing spare space.

"SSDs have started to experience significant adoption in the enterprise, and this growth will continue through 2016," said SSD analyst Jim Handy, the report’s author. "IT managers have found that they can greatly reduce their IT spend while increasing throughput by replacing enterprise HDDs with a technology that initially appears to be much more costly."

Aimed at prospective SSD users as well as SSD and HDD manufacturers, OEMs, flash chip makers, and investors in these businesses, this report represents a collection of technology, market dynamics, and forecasts in a format to provide a comprehensive view of the workings of the enterprise SSD, its applications, and its market dynamics.

Objective Analysis finds that the enterprise SSD market is likely to approach $4 billion in revenues by 2016, nearly six times that of 2011, while unit shipments will increase by ten times during that period to nearly 4 million units.
