  • Gartner Magic Quadrant for Integrated Systems
    (http://www.gartner.com/home) LICENSED FOR DISTRIBUTION Magic Quadrant for Integrated Systems Published: 10 October 2016 ID: G00291000 Analyst(s): Andrew Butler, Philip Dawson, Julia Palmer, George J. Weiss, Kiyomi Yamada Summary Hyperconvergence is disrupting the integrated system market, with major system vendors joining the growing number of startups (some of which are now mature). I&O leaders should still recognize a role for solutions based on SANs and either blades or rack servers, depending on workload requirements. Strategic Planning Assumptions By 2019, approximately 30% of the global storage array capacity installed in enterprise data centers will be deployed on software-defined storage (SDS) or hyperconverged integrated system (HCIS) architectures based on x86 hardware systems, up from less than 5% today. Twenty percent of mission-critical applications currently deployed on three-tier IT infrastructure will transition to HCISs by 2020. Market Definition/Description This document was revised on 9 November 2016. The document you are viewing is the corrected version. For more information, see the Corrections page on gartner.com. Gartner's view of the integrated system market is focused on transformational technologies or approaches delivering on the future needs of end users. It is not focused purely on the market as it is today. Integrated systems are combinations of server, storage and network infrastructure, sold with management software that facilitates the provisioning and management of the combined unit. As organizations seek to modernize and consolidate legacy data center infrastructure, the appeal of integrated systems is high, as these technologies are able to coexist with existing systems and integrate increasingly with the use of external cloud services.
