This IDC study contains IDC's file-based storage (FBS) taxonomy and provides an overview of the current and future use cases driving demand within this market.

"Many of the long-standing drivers of file-based storage consumption such as information digitization, government-dictated retention policies, or a fundamental need for information sharing remain firmly in place today," said Eric Sheppard, research director for Storage Software at IDC. "Yet new pressures created by four fundamental IT trends — cloud, mobility, social business, and Big Data — are expected to place additional (and near unprecedented) demand for storage supporting unstructured data."
