Data Center Hyper-Converged Infrastructure (HCI)

HCI

Hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) can be thought of as software-centric data center infrastructure that seamlessly integrates compute, storage, networking and virtualization technologies to give end users a unified scale-out platform. Reduce data center complexity, increase scalability, improve time-to-value and potentially lower costs.

Are you ready for HCI?

Whether you want to learn about the latest compute advances, need an environment to quickly compare and test HCI solutions, or need help migrating data workloads and applications to your HCI platform, we have the resources you're looking for.

How do I get started?

We're uniquely positioned to help you evaluate, design, implement and operate HCI solutions. Our OEM partnerships let us stock the Advanced Technology Center (ATC) with cutting-edge HCI gear, which we beta test, vet and integrate with other technologies to create innovative data center solutions for our customers.
Evaluate
Wherever you are in your journey, we recommend starting with our HCI Workshop. Our experts can show you how to transform your data center infrastructure in ways that enhance scalability and resilience, increase speed-to-market, reduce time-to-value and possibly lower costs.
Design
Once you've learned about the different market solutions from our HCI Workshop, leverage the ATC's lab environment to demo the latest HCI hardware/software and test different products in a proof of concept. Our expert engineers can quickly advise you on the optimal solution for your needs.
Implement
Leverage our global network of Integration Centers to speed HCI hardware deployments, reduce installation risks and complexity, and enhance the overall performance and visibility of your data center infrastructure. We can also help you seamlessly migrate data workloads and applications to your HCI platform.
Operate
Once your HCI solution has time to mature, our compute and HCI practice teams are available to provide ongoing sales enablement, tailored workshops and advanced training to educate you on the additional benefits HCI can offer over time.
Workshop
Hyper-Converged Infrastructure Workshop
Our Hyper-Converged Infrastructure (HCI) Workshop is a strategic and interactive session focused on helping customers understand the differences between HCI vendors. The workshop exercises allow customers to build custom evaluations that reflect different vendor's abilities to meet requirements.

Converged Infrastructure
Converged infrastructure groups multiple IT components — servers, storage, networking infrastructure, infrastructure management software, automation and orchestration — into one optimized package. Centralize the management of infrastructure resources, consolidate systems, lower costs and increase resource-utilization rates, consistency and availability.
Primary Storage
With legacy storage systems stretched to their limits, organizations must assess flash, software-defined storage and object backup storage solutions.
Secondary Storage
Exponential data growth is a challenge for all organizations. Instead of simply backing up and warehousing cold data, take a more holistic approach to storing your data, improving data recovery and increasing the use of cloud data management by embracing secondary storage.
Infrastructure Automation
Infrastructure automation can be the bridge that connects IT silos. Reduce operational costs, eliminate human error and build infrastructure that supports the business.
