Market Overview

The global hyper-converged infrastructure market size was valued at USD 7.225 billion in 2021. It is predicted to reach an estimated value of USD 53.83 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 25% during the forecast period (2022-2030). 

Hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) is a combination of the data center hardware using locally attached storage resources with intelligent software to create flexible building blocks. Hyper-converged infrastructure is meant to replace the legacy infrastructure that includes separate servers, storage networks, and storage arrays. Furthermore, its benefits such as lower total cost of ownership increased performance, and greater productivity is advantageous over the complicated and expensive legacy infrastructure. Hyper-converged infrastructure runs on turnkey, industry-standard servers. Therefore, software running on each server node distributes all operating functions and enables enterprises to superior performance.

The hyper-converged infrastructure consists of two main components, the distributed plane, and the management plane. The distributed plane is a cluster of nodes that provide storage, virtualization, and networking services for applications. The management plane allows businesses to administer resources from a single location. It also eliminates the need for separate management solutions for servers, storage networks, storage, and virtualization. Modern hyper-converged infrastructure solutions are 100% software-defined, with no dependency on proprietary hardware. The node in a cluster runs a hypervisor, and the control features run as a separate virtual machine, forming a fully distributed fabric.

Market Dynamics

The Emergence of Hybrid It to Drive the HCI Market Growth

Hybrid IT combines in-house data centers with private/public clouds to run applications in multiple environments efficiently. IT growth and innovations in hybrid technologies are significantly driving the hyper-converged infrastructure market. Cloud-computing platforms are maturing, and businesses in all industry verticals are adopting the latest technologies. Hybrid IT environments enable organizations to operate workloads between on-premises data centers and cloud platforms for greater flexibility and cost-efficiency. This is bolstering significant growth in the market recently.

Infield, where the public cloud is not the best fit for specific workloads due to drawbacks such as cost of hosting, compliance concerns, and latency issues, the hyper-converged infrastructure provides a simple solution, i.e., the agility of the cloud with on-premises control and governance.

Digital Transformation Is Thrusting Market Progression

Rapid use of digital technologies to improve business processes and culture to meet customer requirements is propelling hyper-converged infrastructure market growth. Organizations are trying to determine the best way to adopt emerging technologies to keep a competitive edge in their industry. Thus, they adoptan ideal platform such as hyper-converged infrastructures to virtualize core workloads on a consolidated platform and purchase only what they need to operate existing workloads.

Benefits such as streamlining everyday IT operations and delivering total cost-of-ownership (TCO) savings over legacy 3-tier architecture drive market growth. Services offered by HCI solutions are cost-effective, and resources can be reinvested and dedicated to adopting emerging technologies. Such technologies can be integrated into the HCI environment to create a future-proof platform that global businesses can rely on.

Limited Resource Optimization Is Restricting the Market Growth

In a recent study conducted by 451 Research, 63% of organizations describe their current workload as highly manual or manual with limited automation tools. This leaves IT departments resource-constrained. These organizations need to be aware of the HCI solutions and their capabilities to empower them with an operational edge.

The high operating expenses of the traditional converged infrastructures are limiting market adoption. It causes IT to spend more time provisioning, integrating, and operating infrastructure and spend less time adding value to the application lifecycle process. However, hyper-converged infrastructures not only provide organizations an opportunity to grow but also efficiently invest in computing, storage, and networking capacity.

Mission-Critical and Next-Generation Workloads to Offer Market Growth Opportunities in the Upcoming Years

Mission-critical workloads are rising in importance owing to the increasing demand for real-time interactions between machines and laborers. Workloads associated with edge computing, internet of things (IoT), big data analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning enable organizations to unlock the economic benefits of their data through actionable. Technology-based workloads also influence business efficiency, cost savings, and competitive advantage.

Modern hyper-converged infrastructural HCI solutions have support latency and scalability to Tier 1 workloads, which is a key factor in boosting market popularity. In edge environments, HCI can also eliminate unnecessary storage and compute scalability, and the perpetual fear of network latency, which can be costly for businesses.

Regional Analysis

Asia-Pacific to Account for the Largest Market during the Forecast Period

The Asia-Pacific is expected to offer significant growth opportunities for market investors during the forecast period. Asian Governments are highly investing in ICT infrastructure and modernizing their datacenter architectures to keep up with the service demands. Rising awareness of data management among the growing and increasingly sophisticated population at a reduced total cost of ownership, growing focus on VDI and server virtualization, and popularity of using infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) solutions are driving the market growth in Asia.

Industry experts have estimated the Asia-Pacific cloud computing market to grow at 28.4% annually through 2022 due to the rising demands for cloud services, notably supporting big-data analytics initiatives. In addition to this, China, Japan, and India offer favorable economic conditions, numerous end-user verticals, and an increase in the adoption of virtualization environment-based applications, which is a promising factor for market growth in the region.

North American HCI Market to Grow Substantially over the Next Few Years

The HCI market in North America is anticipated to show promising growth opportunities owing to the presence of key players across the U.S. Nutanix, Inc., Pivot3, Scale Computing, Inc., SimpliVity Corporation, and VMware, Inc., are offering HCI solutions across the financial sector, government organizations, and IT & telecom. These sectors form the major segment of the overall hyper-converged infrastructure market.

Approximately 40% of large and 35% mid-tier organizations in the region are anticipated to shift from the traditional to the hyper-converged infrastructure for cost-saving reasons.Due to their ease of implementation and ability to reduce issues regarding SAN-based storage solutions, virtual desktop infrastructure projects are underway. Organizations dealing with different workloads are demanding hyper-converged infrastructure solutions to diversify their businesses. Such trends are anticipated to expand the use of HCI systems more in the upcoming years.
