A report from Oracle and Quocirca has shown that data is being increasingly being moved back in-house at enterprise level.

A survey of 952 organisations showed that internal data centre infrastructure were being increasingly invested in, with 65 percent in respondents to report by Index Cycle only using in-house data centres, up from 45 percent from a year ago.

Those with external and internal centres fell from 56 percent to 34 percent. The reversal of the trend to outsource data storage comes as enterprises increase IT infrastructure and seek to invest in internal development.
