Pure Storage and Nutanix, two pure plays,
fare well in their respective Transaction Index™ while competition
continues to rise
Purchase intent-driven marketing and sales services
company TechTarget, Inc. (Nasdaq: TTGT) today
announced the availability of its Q4 Post Purchase Data Reports for
20 Information Technology (IT) market segments. Of note, the All
Flash Array (AFA) and HyperConverged Infrastructure (HCI) markets
have experienced strong growth in volume of transactions over the
past several quarters (25 percent and 30 percent in Q4
respectively), demonstrating a growing demand for these
technologies amongst Global 2000 and mid-size enterprises. Total
cost of ownership (TCO), performance, reliability, and ease of
management surfaced as key drivers for these organizations.
TechTarget’s Quarterly Post Purchase Data Reports cover 20 IT
segments within four markets: Cloud Computing, Data Center, Storage
and Information Security. The research details hundreds of
transactions per segment leveraging data sourced from TechTarget’s
proprietary network of pre-screened IT decision makers from Global
2000 and mid-size enterprises. Reports detail deal wins,
short-listed vendors, investment, capacity purchased, discounts,
concessions and vendor ratings.

Highlights from TechTarget’s Q4 Post Purchase Reports
include:
- While Dell EMC has led the AFA
Transaction Index for the last four quarters, Pure Storage (NYSE:
PSTG) continues to push as the No. 2 spot. Both providers have
successfully converted winning deals from shortlists: Dell EMC
converted 79% and Pure Storage converted 81% of the time.
Transactions are also captured for: IBM (NYSE: IBM), HPE (NYSE:
HPE), HDS, NetApp (Nasdaq: NTAP), Nimble (NYSE: NMBL), Kaminario,
Tegile, Oracle (NYSE: ORCL) and Tintri.
- The HCI Transaction Index shows a
crowded vendor landscape with Nutanix and VMware leading the
charge. The reseller market for HCI technologies crowds the
market further, but underlying, Nutanix (Nasdaq: NTNX) resides in
the No. 2 spot, only behind VMware (NYSE: VMW), which benefits from
a large installed base of its core hypervisor and a broad partner
sales channel. Transactions are also captured for: HDS, HPE, Dell
EMC, Cisco (Nasdaq: CSCO), SimpliVity (recently acquired by HPE),
Pivot3, Atlantis Computing, Lenovo (HKG: 0992) and SuperMicro
(Nasdaq: SMC).
“Our in-depth interviews with enterprise decision makers show
the movement to different forms of Cloud Computing as the execution
venue for a large percentage of workloads over the next two years
by the Global 2000,” notes Ken Male, senior vice president and
general manager of TechTarget Research. “As companies build out
Private and Hybrid Cloud infrastructure, All Flash Array and
HyperConverged Infrastructure have become cornerstone technologies
that continue to experience spend and increased adoption.
Interestingly, 26 percent of those planning to adopt HCI will run
it with AFA.”
Noting the magnitude of implementation and benefits the
technology affords, Male relayed, “The hundreds of interviews
uncovered more than half of the peer community expects to be
running an All Flash Data Center in five years or less. The
majority are finding that AFA affords significant data reduction
along with higher Storage utilization rates. With those planning to
adopt HCI, the majority are viewing it as a replacement to their
traditional Infrastructure.”
