During the third quarter EMC also led the storage replication market with more than twice the revenue share of the next closest provider, and the storage resource management (SRM) market with more than four times the revenue share of the next closest provider. In the back-up and archive segment EMC continued to grow revenue share and outpace the total market as well as the segment revenue leader.

In the Middle East, EMC executives highlighted storage as the fastest-growing segment of the company's overall business.
"2005 has proved to be the year in which regional organizations really began to grasp the concept of and value delivered by information lifecycle management (ILM). As software is the 'glue' that enables any viable ILM strategy, we anticipate that EMC's software solutions are going to be a major engine for growth in 2006,"

said Mohammed Amin, regional manager, EMC Middle East.

Information lifecycle management (ILM) is driven in large part by software-enabled intelligence in the information infrastructure. EMC's software offering includes a wide range of products to address customers' most pressing needs for consolidation, business continuity, recovery and archive, compliance, content management, virtualization, resource management and data protection.
