Key Findings

Some providers of hyperconverged infrastructure software have expanded theirmanagement tool capabilities into network infrastructure to create more robusthyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) software solutions.


Providers of full-stack hyperconverged infrastructure software vary by geographicinstalled bases, as well as purchasing options and discounts. They also varyaccording to their sales focus from distributed hybrid infrastructure to private clouduse cases.

Full-stack HCI software has a relatively wide range of purchasing options anddiscounts.

Hyperconverged infrastructure vendors are expanding their reach to the cloud andtoward the edge, emerging as prominent players in the distributed hybridinfrastructure (DHI) landscape.

What are the recommendations from The Market Guide?

  • Encompass network management capabilities like centrally managed virtualswitches, platform-native microsegmentation and distributed routing into their HCI tool sets. This starts with weighing full-stack hyperconverged infrastructure softwaresolutions.
  • Evaluate HCI software providers by comparing required implementation needs to theprovider’s sales reach, support capabilities, and focus on private cloud and/ordistributed hybrid infrastructure.
  • Implement full-stack HCI as a revirtualization path.
  • Consider HCI providers that are actively participating in the DHI market if yourdeployments require options for accommodating hyperscale public cloud delivery.

Market Analysis

As a whole, full-stack HCI software has emerged from the market for hyperconverged solutions.

As hyperconverged solutions have evolved, providers have expanded the development and use of their own software across compute, storage and network infrastructure.

"The 30% of the non-VMware full-stack HCI installed base that exists in 2024 will increase to 60% by 2029".

Strategic Planning Assumption

Market Description

Hyperconverged infrastructure software continues to increase in popularity.

1

The market for this full-stack HCI software is more than one billion worldwide.

2

3

This move to full stack aligns with one of the initial drivers of the HCI space — the preference for organizations to get a broader range of infrastructure support from a single provider. Having only one provider to contact as a source of support is regarded as saving time and therefore costs.
