28 Integrated Infrastructure Momentum Analyst Views on Shift to Integration By year-end 2015, 35% of total server shipped value will be as integrated systems. By 2015, converged infrastructure will represent 9.5% of the $64B services, software, and hardware markets. By 2017, nearly two-thirds of all enterprise application infrastructures will be packaged in the form of a converged solution. Cisco continues to be an important part of the integrated systems market and is an integral element of VCE's offerings, as well as FlexPod. The reference architecture offerings of Hitachi/Hitachi Data Systems, as well as EMC's VSPEX platform, also utilize Cisco components. This is partly due to the technology strengths of Cisco's Unified Computing System (UCS). - Gartner Cisco Confidential 28
