SDS/HCI market gains momentum. All but a few leading technology vendors have become active participants in the SDS/HCI space, mostly by acquiring promising and proven start-up companies. SDS/HCI covers a broad innovation spectrum. In the last year improvements have been made in all major functional areas, ranging from the base architecture and data availability to data services and management. Simultaneously, the gap between SDS and HCI solutions is gradually closing. More use cases for SDS/HCI triggers adoption. Wide adoption of traits like bare-metal host support has increased flexibility, which means that SDS/HCI platforms are no longer confined to just virtualization use cases. Simultaneously customers grow more accustomed to consider SDS/HCI as a serious alternative to traditional storage platforms. Nutanix, SimpliVity and VMware have the most extensive platforms. At the end of January 2017 Nutanix, SimpliVity and VMware were the front-runners in the SDS/HCI space, closely followed by Atlantis Computing. At that time the SDS/HCI category included 9 different vendors and 12 platforms. The category is likely to expand.
