A 2011 IDC report predicts that the world will consume 90 million terabytes (that's 90 yottabytes, in case you were wondering) of data in 2014 and 125 million terabytes in 2015.

Third-party vendors first introduced data deduplication as an add-on feature, but Microsoft added the capability to Windows Server 2012, effectively making data deduplication a commodity technology that's available to everyone.ĭata deduplication has become particularly important with the explosion of storage.

And data deduplication-a storage technology that reduces disk space requirements-has followed an abbreviated version of the hype cycle. Virtualization has followed this lifecycle. This is the "peak of inflated expectations." Of course, as people realize the technology won't end world hunger or roll back global warming, it falls into the "trough of disillusionment." And finally, as the technology dilettantes move their attention to the next shiny thing, the technology is incorporated into products (the "slope of enlightenment") and IT infrastructures so that it becomes a part of everyday life (the "plateau of productivity"). Gartner calls this the "technology trigger." Then, as more people take advantage of the technology, its value is over-promised. First, a technology reaches a level of maturity that raises its visibility.

Technologies people use on a regular basis follow a fairly predictable lifecycle-one that Gartner nicely captured in its Hype Cycle concept.
