Gartner Report Highlights the Opportunity to "Simplify the Midmarket Data Center with Hyperconverged Infrastructure Solutions"
Recognizing the increased pressure midmarket IT infrastructure and
operations (I&O) leaders are under to drive continuous improvements in
their data centers and reduce costs, Gartner (News - Alert) recommends IT leaders
"Simplify the Midmarket Data Center with Hyperconverged Infrastructure
Solutions." (Report published June 24, 2015)
The report highlights the opportunity for midmarket IT leaders to
address the costs and complexities burdening their data centers, and the
growing interest amongst this peer group. SimpliVity is listed as a
Representative Vendor for its hyperconverged infrastructure solutions.
Key points from the report, explaining the great interest in
hyperconverged integrated systems amongst midmarket IT:
-
The costs associated with refreshing data center hardware, at
midmarket scale (80 to 120 production virtual machines (VMs) and 30 to
50 TBs of storage, coupled with their high levels of virtualization
(80% to 90%) are piquing midmarket I&O leaders' interest in HCIS
-
Midmarket I&O leaders are under continuous pressure to simplify their
data centers and reduce costs. Even in highly virtualized
environments, effective alternatives exist to reduce complexity.
-
Infrastructure complexity and maintenance continue to negatively
impact the agility of midmarket infrastrcture and operations (I&O)
teams.
-
Budgets have kept many viable alternatives to best-of-breed solutions
out of the reach of midsize enterprises.
"We believe that highly virtualized midsize enterprises with fewer than
200 virtual machines should absolutely opt for hyperconverged
infrastructure," wrote Gartner Analysts, Mike Cisek, Gartner Research
Director and Jeffrey Hewitt, Research Vice President.
