The reality of megatrends = 175 ZB of data by 2025

The world's data consumption is expected to rise from 33 ZB today to 175 ZB by 2025, with daily digital interactions increasing from an average of 750 to 5000. This exponential growth in data is driven by real-time applications and services, IoT sensors, AI, ML, and the upcoming 5G technology. By 2025, almost 30% of all data consumed will be real-time, highlighting the need for efficient real-time API streaming and management infrastructure. Real-time APIs are expected to play a significant role in various industries such as autonomous vehicles (AVs), manufacturing, transport, supply chain, and medicine. The new market for raw real-time data is predicted to be worth $750 billion by 2025, with the opportunity for value-added real-time data streams representing significantly more.
