It’s losing cost advantages as time goes. Long term storage is still on tape (and that’s actively developed too!), and flash is getting cheaper, and spinning disks have inherent bandwidth and latency limits. It’s probably not going away entirely, but it’s main usecases are being squeezed on both ends
