National

In June 2025, MiPhi Semiconductors Private Limited, a joint venture between Micromax Informatics (India) and Phison Technology (Taiwan), made history by becoming the first Indian company to locally design and manufacture enterprise-grade Solid State Drives (SSDs).


      - The announcement was made in New Delhi, marking a major stride in India’s semiconductor and data storage ecosystem.

      - The achievement aligns with India’s Atmanirbhar Bharat vision, aiming to boost indigenous capabilities in next-generation digital technologies and reduce dependency on imports in the high-end data storage segment.

      - MiPhi’s enterprise SSDs are specially designed for data centers and high-performance computing applications. They offer ultra-fast read/write speeds, high durability, and advanced enterprise-grade security, suitable for cloud infrastructure, Artificial Intelligence (AI) workloads, and edge computing.

Main Point :-   (i) With global data generation projected to exceed 180 zettabytes (ZB) by 2025, these SSDs are expected to enhance India’s digital sovereignty while strengthening its domestic technology infrastructure.

      (ii) The global enterprise SSD market is projected to grow significantly, from USD 27 billion in 2024 to more than USD 50 billion by 2028, with MiPhi positioning India as a competitive player in the global value chain.

(iii) India’s data center infrastructure is also growing rapidly, with its total data center capacity projected to surpass 1.3 gigawatts (GW) by 2026, supported by investments exceeding USD 10 billion, further driving demand for indigenous SSDs.
