description Objectives. Snapshots of data can be stored in a holographic medium at varying depths. Data can be written via a spiral data channel in spinning holographic media in the form of circular disks like CDs or DVDs. This data is then read by shining a reference beam through the refraction following writing. However, holographic storage is distinct from CD/DVD media in the sense that information is encoded in all three dimensions. Two-dimensional data is written using a single laser beam that spirals around the material. Prototype holographic storage solutions use minuscule cones formed by individual snapshots or pages to store one million pixels. As compared with magnetic disks and tapes, which have a finite lifespan of 50 years at most, the longevity and dependability of optical media storage is advantageous for long-term archiving. Holographic technology allows for the portability of data-intensive media such as broadcast or high-definition video. However, the shelf life of holographic media remains low due to its sensitivity to light. The primary goals of most storage devices are more storage space and faster data transport. Holographic storage devices have the potential to outperform traditional optical storage devices both in terms of capacity and performance. The present paper aims to evaluate the current international research trends in Holographic Data Storage (HDS) and produce a graphical mapping of co-authorship and countries.Methods. The major outputs of the dataset were authors, document type, publication, institution, nation, and citations. After exporting 1052 data sources, HistCite software was used to analyze the citations; visualization mapping was carried out using VOSviewer software and R programming language for the analysis of the authorcountry-title association on Holographic Storage Devices.Results. The most prominent authors, papers, journals, organizations, and nations in the field of HDS were identified in HistCite. Then, four clusters were investigated using VOSviewer based on author keywords, citation collaboration networks among different organizations, countries, and the HDS co-authorship network.Conclusions. During the study period from 2000–2020 (21 years), 4636 authors contributed to 1052 publications. The highest number of publications was in 2009, with a linear adjustment of R2 = 0.0136. The most prolific author, Lee J., published 3.14% of the articles on this subject. In terms of country distribution, Japan took first-place ranking, claiming 16.54% of the total number of articles. The “holographic” keyword was used in 62.55% of the articles.
