I've been tasked by tomorrow to produce some industry trends for offsite 
storage of RIM program material.  This would include the major players and 
their status within the industry.

I've already stated that the breakdown looks like a pyramid with 3 
layers(top to bottom) 1) the 400 LB gorilla named Iron Mountain, 2) 6-12 
Midsize regional vendors, 3) Mom & Pop vendors.  Can anyone tell me the % 
of business in each category and the trends over the last few years.

I've also already stated that which category a business uses depends on a 
large matrix of requirements including compliance,location, risk mgt,media 
involved,services,,etc and that the answer will vary as much as the amount 
of businesses when choosing a vendor.

I think they want to know -for whatever reason the direction the  off-site 
industry has taken and where it's headed. 

Any comments,suggestions, omissions on my part are appreciated.


Thanks
