The global hyper-converged infrastructure market is estimated
to reach USD 13.96 billion by 2024, according to a report by Grand View
Research, Inc. Hyper-converged infrastructure is a software-based architecture
that integrates storage, compute, virtualization, and networking resources in a
box. The HCI systems are supported by a single vendor. They eliminate the need
for making individual purchases of servers and virtualization software running
on those servers and management tools, and do not require the installation of
Storage-area Network (SAN) or Network-attached Storage (NAS). This integration,
in turn, reduces the overall cost of the hyper-converged infrastructure system.
The HCI market is still in its introductory stage and the adoption of Virtual
Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) is anticipated to boost the industry growth over
the next seven years.
The industry is expected
to witness tremendous growth, owing to the increasing demand to enhance IT
operational efficiency, reduce IT costs, and improve data protection. The
demand for HCI is expected to increase in various verticals, such as BFSI, IT
& telecom, healthcare, and government sectors, among others, considering
its advantages over the traditional converged infrastructure.
The HCI market in North
America is anticipated to show promising growth opportunities in the coming
years due to the presence of a wide number of players across the U.S., such as
Nutanix, Inc. (U.S.), Pivot3 (U.S.), Scale Computing, Inc. (U.S.), SimpliVity
Corporation (U.S.), and VMware, Inc. (U.S.), among others. These market players
offer HCI solutions majorly across the financial sector, government
organizations, and IT & telecom, which forms the major segment of the
overall hyper-converged infrastructure market. Moreover, in the recent months,
about 40% large and 35% mid-tier organizations intend to shift from the
traditional architecture to the hyper-converged infrastructure to attain
simplicity of operations and cost savings.
Hyper-converged
infrastructure is extensively used in the mid and large size enterprises for
virtual desktop infrastructure projects, largely due to their ability to
eradicate the complexity during implementation and issues regarding SAN-based
storage solutions. It also reduces the overall cost in comparison with the traditional
converged architecture. Different workloads run on these solutions and are
varying with time. This varying workload within the industry is anticipated to
diversify even further over the forecast period as organizations are focusing
on expanding the use of HCI systems.
Small organizations
prefer improving operational efficiency for the Remote Office/Branch Office
(ROBO) IT service and also increasing the use of server virtualization. On the
other hand, large enterprises are improving operational efficiency equally with
improving backup and disaster recoveries. They also deploy private cloud
infrastructure and cloud infrastructure service.HCI systems play a major role
in achieving the required scenarios as they are powerful, rich in feature, and
simple to operate with a low setup time in comparison to the traditional
architectures. These benefits of hyper-converged infrastructure systems are
anticipated to drive the demand across large, small, and medium enterprises
over the forecast period. Also, the software-centric approach of the HCI
systems enables them to meet the current and future business requirements
without making any alteration to the existing infrastructure. This paves a way
for increased level of adoption across a wide range of industries such as
education, banking and finance, healthcare, and others. The cloud computing
application segment in hyper-converged infrastructure is also gaining traction
and is expected to have a positive impact on the market revenue.

Further key findings from the report suggest:
· Virtualization is becoming popular among
cost-sensitive customers and large & medium enterprises. The
increasingadoption of virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) on hyper-converged
systems leads to the eradication of traditional complex and fragmented
infrastructure management in the traditional three-tier based architecture,
which is expected to drive the HCI virtualization application in the near
future.The cloud-based solution offers benefits such as economies of scale,
disaster recovery, effective monitoring of projects, and reduced technology
infrastructure cost, which are also expected to foster the growth over the forecast
period.
· Hyper-converged infrastructure is popular
in the IT & telecom, financial services, and healthcare & life sciences
segments. HCIsystems are also being adopted by the government sector and media
& entertainment division. IT & telecom and financial services are the
major application segments and together held a market share of over 50% in
2015.
· EMC Corporation (U.S.), Hewlett-Packard
(U.S.), Dell Inc. (U.S.), Atlantis Computing, Inc. (U.S.), Cisco Systems, Inc.
(U.S.), Fujitsu Ltd. (U.S.), Hitachi Data Systems (U.S.), NetApp, Inc. (U.S.),
Nimboxx, Inc. (U.S.), Nutanix, Inc. (U.S.), Pivot3 (U.S.), Scale Computing,
Inc. (U.S.), SimpliVity Corporation (U.S.), and VMware, Inc. (U.S.), among
others are some of the major industry players in the hyper-converged
infrastructure market
