HCI Market Share: 6%
Hewlett Packard Enterprise generated a total of $119 million in hyperconverged systems revenue during the first quarter, up 43 percent year over year. The huge growth from HPE allowed the company to capture 6 percent share of the global hyperconverged market, up from 4.5 percent market share in the first quarter of 2019.
Last month, San Jose, Calif.-based HPE dramatically upped the price/performance ante in the intensely competitive hyperconverged market by outfitting both SimpliVity and its Nimble Storage dHCI platforms with AMD’s EPYC Rome processors. The updates are targeted at the VDI markets including work-at-home and medical and emergency services, whichhave experienced a significant increase in demand amid the coronavirus pandemic.
