• Pharmaceutical & Biotechnology Companies, CROs, and CMOS
• Research Centers, Academic & Government Institutes, and Clinical Research Labs
• Hospitals, Clinics, and ASCs
• Diagnostic & Clinical Laboratories
• Other End Users

By end-user, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, CROs, and CMOs are attaining the highest share in the healthcare data storage market throughout the timeline period. The pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies do more research on drug discovery fueling the segment growth. 

Healthcare Data Storage Market – By Region

• North America
• Europe
• Asia-Pacific
• Latin America
• Middle East and Africa

Geographically, North America is dominating the healthcare data storage market with lion's share owing to factors like rising quick and early adoption of data storage solutions, and well-equipped healthcare infrastructure. U.S and Canada are the leading nations in North America. In August 2018, Harmony Healthcare IT specified that an individual patient produced nearly 80megabytes of data every year. 

Hospital for Special Surgery of New York accepted Ambra Health's cloud-based medical imaging management solution for storage and exchange of data, in March 2022.

The European healthcare data storage market is the second-leading region owing to the increasing patient population with growing chronic disorders like arthritis, cancer, and diabetes. In 2018, Europe is registered with 3.9 million new cancer cases and 1.9 million cancer deaths.  

However, Asia-Pacific is projected to observe important growth in the healthcare data storage market during the above-mentioned period. The region's growth attributes to increasing population, brisk technological developments, and the existence of some countries like India, China, and Japan. The rising elderly people and the existing huge patient pool drive the healthcare data storage market growth.

In Latin America, by the end of 2022, IBM Corporation announced an extension in cloud footprint, planned to launch a new IBM Cloud multizone region (MZR). 

The Middle East & African healthcare data storage market is likely to witness noteworthy growth in the foreseen years. The swift expansion of clinical & medical datasets, and advancements in technology upsurge the market growth.
