3 Benefits of HCI in Companies with Big Data Analytics
Even with a data centre to back a company’s operation, the increasing demand for big data analytics in Singapore raises the bar higher for many business operations to adapt. Your existing data centre might not be as efficient anymore when the market is expecting more stored data, faster retrieval, and tighter security. This is where HCI can help you.
What is HCI?
HCI is the acronym for Hyper-Converged Infrastructure. This software-defined system combines the essential elements you can find in most data centres namely, storage, networking, cloud computing and data management. This allows you to make the most out of your data centre with reinforced functionality and dependability. Here are some of the benefits you can expect from HCI:
Versatility That Leads to Efficiency
When your business operations depend heavily on your data centre, backing it up with strong, reliable, and practical smart solutions is of utmost importance. HCI is a very versatile solution for your business. With its unified features, you will not need to assign several departments to oversee the specific operations of your IT infrastructure. Data management is also more efficient when you’re working on a single infrastructure rather than several ones with specific tasks.
Unified Solutions Means Lower Cost
One of the most important advantages of HCI is that it unifies the solutions a data centre needs to operate. That means that you will not need to invest in several IT solutions to make your business operations running like clockwork. With HCI, you can also use the virtualisation feature built-in to the system where you can make customised solutions to suit your needs, a convenient and practical way to invest your money in an IT infrastructure.
Resilience and Adaptability
Another notable feature of HCI is that it is highly resilient to the changes in the virtual market. With its ultra-fast operations, you can guarantee that adapting to your changing business needs can be done in no time. The unified features also allow you to cut workload durations to improve your system’s performance.
If we are to name all the benefits of hyper-converged infrastructure, the list will be much longer. HCI is known for its simplicity, relatively low cost, and all-in-one solution.
