IT’S TIME TO TURN YOUR INFRASTRUCTURE UP TO 11! IT teams spend over 70% of their time on monitoring, troubleshooting, patching, updating, and configuring resources.1 But what if this time could shrink? It’s time to look at a hyperconverged, software-defined infrastructure that tightly integrates compute, storage, networking and virtualization resources into a single appliance that can cut down time to deployment and save IT tons of management overhead.
Taking the Industry
By Storm THE TECH INDUSTRY IS BUZZING: Based upon what I am hearing from enterprise shops and the level of interest that they are displaying in this technology, 2016 could well be the year that hyperconverged goes hyper-growth. – DCIG2
A growing audience proves it’s living up to the hype… Almost 25% of IT pros have already adopted hyperconverged infrastructure.3 ADOPTED
54% of those who haven’t adopted plan to deploy hyperconverged infrastructure in the next 24—36 months.3 PLAN TO ADOPT
40% of surveyed IT pros expect time savings by using these integrated systems.1 EXPECT TIME SAVINGS
Plus, hyperconvergence fans cite this infrastructure model provides 55% lower OPEX!3

S E N S CE How did we get here? The data center has evolved over the past 20+ years…
• 1995• Traditional infrastructure is still the norm.
1995
• 2001• Converged infrastructure begins moving into data centers to promote efficiency.
• 2014• 200 1
Hyperconverged infrastructure simplifies management via virtualization.
