StorageNewsletter, 1 Year Later

One year ago, I announced that I had become the new owner of StorageNewsletter, following a long-standing collaboration, on top of my other responsibilities. Now, on July 2nd, 2026, I’d like to share some achievements and key figures.

Since the launch of the site’s online version in 2007*, StorageNewsletter has published 83,154 articles, including today’s news. Over the past 12 months alone, we produced 3,182 articles, more than 12 pieces of content every single day. It comes down to consistency and execution: there hasn’t been a single day without new information published.

This content spans press releases (with or without commentary), company profiles, exclusive interviews, event recaps, opinion and technology pieces, financial analysis, positioning papers, people moves, and more.

As AI continues to touch every aspect of our lives and has driven real, significant change across IT, our editorial team has broadened its coverage over the past year to include memory, processors and accelerators, networking, infrastructure, data centers and their associated energy needs, alongside, of course, various AI angles.

Our large reader community took part in the first edition of the StorageNewsletter Awards, and the 2027 edition will launch on December 1st, 2026, with new categories. We also maintain a conference directory listing a wide range of industry events, where you’re welcome to add your own.

We remain committed to collaborating with the many players we consider partners, event and conference organizers, vendors, channel partners of all kinds, research and analyst firms, press agencies, as well as research centers and universities.

We’ll soon be introducing some new services, while staying true to our model: free to submit news, and free to read.

All of this confirms, once again if it needed confirming, that StorageNewsletter remains the Bible of the Data Storage Industry. We’ve seen attempts elsewhere, even from some blogs, to follow in our footsteps. Good luck to them; it only validates our model and our mission.

The months ahead promise to be very interesting…
