We actually quite like Azure Stack HCI for a number of reasons, the primary amongst them being the feature set per dollar. Lastly, there’s still a giant chunk in the “Others” category that includes things like Azure Stack HCI and Red Hat solutions. That said, with the explosion in edge data and current customer relationships, Cisco still may have something on its hands with HyperFlex, even if the company seems intent on keeping its HCI solutions hidden away. We’ve even been told that HyperFlex freebies are tossed into deals to close a sale. The last major update was in March of 2022 and Cisco hasn’t even mustered a blog about HyperFlex in six months. Not with their sales, that it’s on the list at all. HPE has a disaggregated HCI solution that has a nice simplicity message for SMBs, but HPE also ends up tossing in the VMware pile as well with sales of vSAN Ready Nodes.Ĭisco’s HyperFlex is the one that continues to surprise. While they still have SimpliVity as their own, the go-forward emphasis appears to be on Alletra (formerly Nimble). HPE has moved hard to GreenLake, which may obfuscate some of their HCI progress because of the way IaaS is sold. While they started off as a value play, Nutanix has done well to continue to develop their own hypervisor and has recently invested in more deeply supporting container and cloud-based workloads. They’ve gone through a major leadership overhaul that will probably take at least 2023 to shake out whether or not they’ve sorted that out. That said, Nutanix has continued to hang around. VMware vSAN Ready Nodes and the engineered appliance versions from the likes of Dell and Lenovo always had the path of least resistance once vSAN worked out some of the early kinks and go-to-market decisions (anyone remember EVO: RAIL?). VMware was also the only vendor to surpass the billion in sales number, which is roughly an 8% year-over-year gain for the company. IDC has produced their latest version of the Worldwide Converged Systems Tracker for Q3 2022 and has shown VMware to be on top again, nearly doubling the market share of Nutanix, which placed in second. You can enable either cache deduplication only or both cache and capacity deduplication on a storage container.IDC has produced their latest version of the Worldwide Converged Systems Tracker for Q3 2022 and has shown VMware to be on top again, nearly doubling the revenue of Nutanix, placed in second. Offline compression will initially write the data as normal (in an un-compressed state) and then leverage the Curator framework to compress the data cluster wide.īelow diagram explains how inline compression interacts with the DSF write I/O path:ĭeduplication reduces space usage by consolidating duplicate data blocks on Nutanix storage. Inline compression will compress sequential streams of data or large I/O sizes (>64K) when written to the Extent Store (SSD + HDD). Compression can save physical storage space and improve I/O bandwidth and memory usage-which may have a positive impact on overall system performance. You can enable compression on a storage container. Storage containers are created within a storage pool to hold virtual disks (vDisks) used by virtual machines.
