Integrated systems revenue is forecast to grow at 18.4 percent to $12.3 billion in 2018 from $10.2 billion in 2017, according to Gartner.
The hyperconverged integrated systems (HCIS) segment will achieved growth of 55 percent, while integrated stack systems will drop five percent.
Integrated systems include server, storage and network infrastructure, sold with management software to derive the benefit of an architected design and deployment of integrated compute, storage and memory infrastructure to support digital business.
“The majority of integrated systems replace existing infrastructure, which is great for cost, agility and consolidation of IT and efficiency metrics,” said Naveen Mishra, research director at Gartner.
