The amount of global healthcare data is expected to increase dramatically by the year 2020. Despite the growing amount of data, there is not enough storage space to accommodate the data being generated. It is projected that by 2020 there will be 985 exabytes of storage available for healthcare data but there will be 2,314 exabytes of healthcare data generated.
