SGI Positioned in the "Visionaries" Quadrant of the Gartner 2016 Magic Quadrant for Integrated Systems
October 31 2016 - 9:00AM
Today, SGI (NASDAQ:SGI), a global leader in high-performance
solutions for compute, data analytics and data management,
announced that it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the
"Visionaries" quadrant of the October 2016 Magic Quadrant for
Integrated Systems.
SGI believes the move to the "Visionaries"
quadrant, since last year’s position within “Niche Players,”
represents a progression of SGI’s completeness of vision. According
to Gartner, "'Visionaries' are typically vendors that are focusing
on strong innovation and product differentiation, but are smaller
vendors with limited reach or achievement to date, or larger
vendors with innovation programs that are still unproven.”
Integrated systems are defined by Gartner as
"combinations of server, storage and network infrastructure, sold
with management software that facilitates the provisioning and
management of the combined unit."
The report notes that, "the integrated system
market is outgrowing other data center segments, but the growth has
been stabilized. According to Gartner statistics (see 'Market Share
Analysis: Data Center Hardware Integrated Systems, Worldwide,
2015'), in 2015, integrated system sales grew 11.2% over 2014,
totaling $9.6 billion, constituting approximately 5.6% of all
server, external controller-based storage and data center
networking spend by the end of 2015.”
