DUBLIN, Jan. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Digital Storage for Media and Entertainment Report (2019)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/539438/Research_and_Markets_Logo.jpg

This updated and expanded report is the fifthteenth annual comprehensive reference document on this topic. The report analyzes requirements and trends in worldwide data storage for entertainment content acquisition, editing, archiving, and digital preservation, as well as digital cinema, broadcast, satellite, cable, network, internet, and OTT as well as VOD distribution.

Capacity and performance trends as well as media projections are made for each of the various market segments. Industry storage capacity and revenue projections include direct attached storage, cloud, real time as well as near-line network storage.

Key Points

    --  Creation, Distribution & Conversion of video content creates a huge
        demand driver for storage device and systems manufacturers
    --  As image resolution increases and as stereoscopic VR video becomes more
        common, storage requirements explode
    --  The development of 4K TV and other high-resolution venues in the home
        and in mobile devices will drive the demand for digital content
        (especially enabled by high HEVC (H.265) compression and even greater
        standards for compression to enable 8K and higher resolution and frame
        rate workflows.
    --  HDD areal density increases are slower but flash memory growth has
        increased and the price declined. This, plus the growth in higher
        resolution and higher frame rate content, is causing more applications
        to use flash memory
    --  Activity to create capture and display devices for 8K X 4K content is
        occurring with planned implementation in common media systems by the
        next decade
    --  Active archiving will drive increased use of HDD storage for archiving
        applications, supplementing tape for long term archives Optical storage
        developments for higher capacity write-once Blu-ray optical cartridges
        will create higher capacity discs and this may help slow the reduction
        in optical disc archiving
    --  Flash memory dominates cameras and is finding wider use in post
        production and content distribution systems
    --  From 2018 to 2024 entertainment and media digital storage TAM (without
        archiving and preservation) will increase by about 2.2X from $5 B to
        $10.9 B
    --  The growth in storage capacities will result in a total media and
        entertainment storage revenue growth of about 2.1 X between 2018 and
        2024 (from $7.5B to $16B)
    --  Overall annual storage capacity demand for non-archival applications is
        expected to increase over the period from 2018 to 2024 by 5.8X from 15.5
        EB to 90.5 EB
    --  Between 2018 and 2024 the publisher expects about a 3.7 X increase in
        the required digital storage capacity used in the entertainment industry
        and about a 4.2 X increase in storage capacity shipped per year (from
        62.4EB to 264EB
    --  In 2018 content distribution is estimate at 35% of total storage revenue
        followed by archiving and preservation at 33%, post-production at 26%
        and content acquisition at 6%.
    --  In 2024 the projected revenue distribution is 35% content distribution,
        32 % archiving and preservation, 28% post production and 6% content
        acquisition
    --  By 2024 the publisher expects about 52% of archived content to be in
        near-line and object storage, up from 43% in 2018
    --  In 2018 estimate that 72.5% of the total storage media capacity shipped
        for all the digital entertainment content segments was in HDDs with
        digital tape at 21.1%, 3.5% optical discs and flash at 2.9%
    --  By 2024 tape capacity shipment share has been reduced to 14.4%, HDDs
        shipped capacity is 75.1%, optical disc capacity is down to about 0.7%
        and flash capacity percentage is at 9.9%
    --  Media revenue is expected to increase about 1.9X from 2018 to 2024
        ($1.9B to $3.6B).
    --  The single biggest application (by storage capacity) for digital storage
        in the next several years as well as one of the most challenging is the
        digital conversion of film, video tape and other analog formats and its
        long term digital preservation
    --  Over 174 Exabytes of new digital storage will be used for digital
        archiving and content conversion and preservation by 2024
    --  Storage in remote clouds is playing an important role in enabling
        collaborative workflows, content distribution and in archiving
    --  Overall cloud storage capacity for media and entertainment is expected
        to grow about 12X between 2018 and 2024 (8.4 EB to 105 EB)
    --  Overall object storage capacity for media and entertainment is expected
        to grow about 5.6 X between 2018 and 2024 (13.1 EB to 73.0 EB)
    --  Cloud storage revenue will be about $3.7 B by 2024
    --  By the publisher's estimates, professional media and entertainment
        storage capacity represents about 5.7% of total shipped storage capacity
        in 2018. Professional media and entertainment consumes about 17% of all
        tape capacity shipments, 8% of all hard disk drive shipments and 2% of
        all flash memory shipments in 2018. The publisher estimates that media
        and entertainment raised about 11% of total storage revenue in 2018.
    --  Digital cinema conversion complete in most countries with movement to 4K
        video wide-spread
    --  Silver halide film is in serious decline and only used in some special
        projects.
    --  AXF and other new standards may help format obsolescence
    --  Several petabytes of storage can be required for a complete stereoscopic
        digital movie production at 4K resolution and there is some production
        work at 8K or higher
    --  By the next decade total video captured for a high end digital
        production could be hundreds of PB, approaching 1 Exabyte
    --  Movement to IP based workflows will reduce total costs for content
        management, including storage
    --  Non-linear editing requires high performance storage devices. Over the
        forecast period lower network storage costs and higher performing low
        cost storage networks will result in faster growth of network storage
        than direct attached and local storage
    --  ATA HDD arrays have become the dominant mode for readily retrievable
        fixed content storage, but flash memory is growing for this use as costs
        decline (NVMe using the PCIe bus will be dominate flash interface)
    --  Magnetic tape will remain as an archival media although use in other
        applications is in decline, particularly content capture
    --  Flash memory is the clear majority storage media in professional video
        cameras with survey results showing about 67% utilization in the 2019
        survey
    --  The continued need to storage for higher performance and high capacity
        workflows are driving strong storage growth in the projection periods -
        assuming no great negative economic trends
