Get The ReportSpending on industrial data management, including data storage, collection, transformation, integration, analytics, and visualization, will reach US$35 billion worldwide by 2035. This reflects a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 9.1% over 10 years.
The market is being spurred by unprecedented data generation. According to ABI Research, manufacturers will generate 4.4 Zettabytes (ZB) of data annually by 2030 as they scale sensor and inspection solutions to improve quality levels and equipment performance. These are the two top-ranked operational challenges facing the industrial sector today. Internet of Things (IoT) sensors, cameras, and inspection elements, automated identification readers, and Computer Numerical Control (CNC) systems account for most of the data generation growth with an average CAGR of 14.3%, compared to a 4.6% CAGR of control and information systems (ERP, SCADA, PLC, MES). The influx of raw data from sensors and inspection sources underlines the essential role transformation and integration play in unlocking real-time insights and enabling AI-powered analytics to improve quality and productivity.
