Converged infrastructure buoyed by trends towards software-defined architecture

The Global Converged Infrastructure Market 2015-2019 research report, by Infiniti Research and distributed by Reports and Reports, says ease of integration will drive growth for this market. Globally, the converged infrastructure market will grow at a CAGR of 31.3% from 2014 to 2019, the authors of the report said.

According to the authors, the global converged infrastructure market can be categorised into integrated infrastructure systems, integrated application systems, and integrated infrastructure systems, all of which are migrating towards software-defined technologies. 

Converged infrastructure vendors are constantly upgrading data centre components by developing software to define, integrate, allocate, maintain and support storage, server and networking functions for various requirements. Such software drastically reduces the cost of installing different servers and storage for different applications. 

Low support and maintenance costs will drive the market, but the danger is vendor "lock in", the report states.

Companies like Cisco, Dell, EMC, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, NetApp, Oracle, and VCE are named as key vendors in the report.
