Hyper-converged infrastructure technology has taken big strides since emerging more than a decade ago, finding a home in data centers looking to ease procurement headaches and management chores. Vendors originally positioned the technology as a simple-to-deploy, all-in-one offering that combined compute, storage and networking with a hypervisor. The essential selling points around simplicity remain the […]

What is a hyperconverged appliance (HCI appliance)? A hyperconverged appliance (HCI appliance) is a hardware device that provides multiple data center management technologies within a single box. Hyperconverged systems are characterized by a software-centric architecture that tightly integrates compute, storage, networking and virtualization resources and other technologies. At one time, these systems were based on […]
