Accelerated amplitude of applications and increasing cost of maintaining the traditional Infrastructure, causes a worthy of attention in the IT department of every organization. With Hyper Converged Infrastructure, you can manage your IT operations at a blink of your eye by combining your IT Infrastructure into a single, integrated all-flash solution.
What is Hyper-Converged Infrastructure?
HCI is a software-defined IT infrastructure that virtualizes conventional hardware-defined systems. With HCI, all key datacentre functions run in a tightly integrated software layered environment rather than traditional hardware environment.
Benefits of HCI
- HCI helps in potential cost savings in areas including Data Center, Space, and IT Labor.
- Avoidance of Licensed software such as Backup or Disaster recovery tool.
Workloads for HCI
- Oracle or SQL Server.
- File and Print Services.
- Share Point.
- Virtual Desktop.
- Commercial Package Software like SAP and Oracle.
- Analytics.
This is an overview of Hyper-Converged Infrastructure. Now the question many people might come across is, which Product is HCI compatible?
