Executive Summary


To stay competitive, organizations are increasingly dependent on their applications to deliver new innovations. Whether those are innovations in product or service offerings or new ways to run the business more efficiently, what’s needed is a modern IT infrastructure.

One of the most promising approaches to modernize IT is a hyperconverged (HCI) system that delivers full-stack integration of both the hardware hyperconverged infrastructure layer and the VMware cloud software stack. In bringing together the compute, storage, network and security layers of the stack, organizations can better support their applications—from traditional apps to modern, from developers to end users—with a fully automated hybrid cloud. Discover how you can benefit from full-stack HCI to modernize your IT infrastructure and more efficiently drive your business.

Making the Case for Full-Stack HCI


Organizations today are competing in increasingly demanding markets. Consumers have heightened expectations of products and services, often wanting access to these directly from their mobile devices. Retailers must offer fresh, frequently updated products to retain the interest of their customers. Manufacturers need to ship products efficiently and quickly, investing heavily in areas such as “the last mile” of delivery. For both retailers and manufacturers, innovation is critical, and must occur without compromising “business-as-usual” operational performance.

To meet these increasing demands, infrastructure strategies must provide better agility, scale, and performance. Legacy three-tier IT infrastructures introduce potential roadblocks to achieving these new levels of innovation; they’re not well suited for evolution to cloud environments. Modern IT organizations need the ability to deliver applications that can run anywhere, on any device, and be developed with cloud native tools to accelerate agile development methodologies

The foundation of such modernization is a HCI system that delivers full-stack integration of both the hyperconverged infrastructure layer and the cloud software stack, providing a seamless hybrid cloud experience with automated lifecycle management for the full hardware and software stack.
