[The information in this article has been generated by our marketing associate.]
The transformations in the data storage sector are leading to modifications in Gartner's 2024 Magic Quadrant for Primary Storage Platforms (PSP), which are generating worries among suppliers and consumers. The shift towards integration with hyperscalers and geopolitical factors pose significant queries regarding competition, innovation, and options available to customers.
Changes to Assessment and Eligibility Criteria Benefit Large-scale Cloud Service Providers
Gartner's updates place a strong focus on inherent platform services, storage on demand, and mixed cloud structures, areas where major cloud providers excel. This narrative continues with an emphasis on software-controlled storage. Furthermore, Gartner's updated requirements mandate a worldwide presence in key regions, solidifying the lead for major cloud providers.
Numerous conventional suppliers retain a solid customer base within specific localities, yet often fall short when it comes to possessing the expansive worldwide infrastructure that hyperscalers have, given that they operate globally by default. This puts suppliers outside of the U.S at a disadvantage, where hyperscalers reign supreme. Traditional vendors who offer high-grade solutions and have a robust vision for the future may find themselves at a disadvantage due to their restricted global reach, a hurdle that's sometimes a result of political limitations rather than a lack of ability. For instance, regional operatives in Europe and the Asia-Pacific may be left out of the Leaders quadrant due to their lack of significant presence in North America. This is especially disputable as it can be argued that Gartner provides a less all-encompassing perspective of the Primary Storage Market.
