Cloud storage has become a critical component of modern business operations, offering a flexible and scalable solution for data management. According to recent data, the global cloud storage market is expected to reach over $100 billion by 2024, driven by the growing demand for secure and efficient storage solutions. The COVID-19 pandemic has only accelerated this trend, as remote work has increased the need for cloud storage solutions that can support remote collaboration and data sharing. In addition, advancements in technology, such as the growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the increasing use of big data, have created new opportunities for cloud storage providers to expand their offerings and meet the needs of businesses of all sizes.
