Dell To Become ‘Six-Times’ Bigger Than Nutanix, Says Michael Dell

From CRN: Michael Dell expects Dell Technologies to widen its hyperconverged infrastructure leadership position significantly in the future, with the goal to become upwards of six-times larger than nearest competitor Nutanix.

“We have a super strong position [in hyperconverged infrastructure] and it’s only getting stronger,” said Dell in an interview with CRN. “So we’re No. 1 and we’re more than twice the size of No. 2 [Nutanix]. We have our sights set on being three-times, four-times, five-times, six-times bigger than No. 2.”

This week, research firm IDC released worldwide hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) market share data, showing that Dell Technologies gained significant share over Nutanix in the third quarter of 2019. Dell Technologies captured 35.1 percent of the global HCI systems market share, up from 29.3 percent share year over year. The Round Rock, Texas-based company generated $708 million in hyperconverged system sales, up 43 percent year over year.
