Sangfor Included in the 2022 Gartner® Market Guide for Server Virtualization
Sangfor Technologies, a leading vendor of cyber security & cloud computing solutions, was recently listed in the 2022 Gartner Market Guide for Server Virtualization (hereinafter referred to as the “Market Guide”) as one of the Representative Providers of Hypervisor-Based Server Virtualization.[1]
According to the Market Guide, Gartner suggests that “the server virtualization market is embracing innovation from public cloud providers and open-source projects. In 2022, I&O leaders must implement new approaches to server virtualization in the context of cloud, containers, and infrastructure modernization”.
The Market Guide also points out that “increased use of both public cloud infrastructure as a service (IaaS) and hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) software can make the hypervisor less visible because it is often a bundled, integrated component. Distributed cloud solutions have the potential to accelerate this trend”.
We believe, this trend is being gradually verified by the market. Taking Sangfor’s Hyper-Converged Infrastructure (HCI) as an example, one of the basic technologies of Sangfor HCI is the self-developed server virtualization software – aSV. Sangfor HCI can provide external services, such as Sangfor hyper-converged all-in-one machine, ARM hyper-converged all-in-one appliance and other products in the IaaS field, providing a variety of solutions to help users build a minimalist, stable and high-performance cloud data center.
In addition, Sangfor Managed Cloud Services can also provide users with computing, storage, network, security and other resources and full-life-cycle business hosting services, helping users realize asset-light operation of data centers.
We consider it worth mentioning that Sangfor HCI has been widely recognized by the market due to its outstanding technology and service advantages and has also been named in the 2021 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Hyperconverged Infrastructure Software for the third consecutive year.[2] Up to now, Sangfor has provided cloud services for 10,000 users in various industries such as government, finance, medical care, education, operators, and large enterprises and the amount is still increasing.
In the future, Sangfor will continue to focus on the digital transformation of various industries, and create a timesaving, smooth, elastic, safe and reliable cloud data center for users.
