ActualTech Media, in partnership with Atlantis Computing, has released its Hyperconverged Infrastructure (HCIS) and Software-Defined Storage (SDS) 2016 Survey to provide insight on how IT organizations are building modern data centers in 2016 and beyond. The survey, conducted with more than 1,267 data center leaders from 53 countries, revealed that 71% either already use or are considering adoption of HCIS or SDS.
"There is a lot of confusion and hype in the fast changing HCIS and SDS markets and it is critical to gather data about real-world usage," explained Scott D. Lowe, partner and co-founder of ActualTech Media. "We believe this is the largest and most detailed account of adoption, buying criteria and use cases for HCIS and SDS. The new report provides IT organizations with critical insights on how HCIS and SDS technologies are being used, actual experiences from the field and the future plans of data center leaders from around the world."
