Hivecell Acknowledged in 2021 Gartner® Hype Cycle™ Reports for Hybrid Infrastructure Services, Infrastructure Strategies and Compute Infrastructure
Hivecell named a Sample Vendor in Cloud-Tethered Compute Solutions category
BEACON, N.Y., Oct. 6, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Hivecell, the Edge-as-a-Service company, has been named a Sample Vendor in three Gartner Hype Cycle reports for Hybrid Infrastructure Services 2021[1], Infrastructure Strategies 2021[2] and Compute Infrastructure 2021 [3].
In these Hype Cycle reports, cloud-tethered compute was categorized as an emerging technology. According to Gartner Hype Cycle for Hybrid Infrastructure Services, 2021 "cloud-tethered compute is compute infrastructure running on customers' premises or at edge locations that is delivered as a service, managed and maintained by a provider to enable customers to deploy cloudlike services directly into their own environments without having to maintain the environment themselves."
Gartner Hype Cycles are a graphical representation of a technologies lifecycle that provides end users insights about which technologies to invest in in order to save time and money. Hivecell is a sample vendor under the Cloud-Tethered Compute Solutions category.
"The Hype Cycle reports recognize innovative services and solutions for private cloud, public cloud and edge solutions and we're thrilled Hivecell has been included as a sample vendor under the Cloud-Tethered Compute Solutions category," said Jeffrey Ricker, CEO and co-founder at Hivecell. "The other sample vendors recognized in the cloud-tethered compute category alongside Hivecell were Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Oracle, and VMware."
According to Gartner, "cloud-tethered compute systems will affect business across IT, finance and procurement". The report [1] further stated "IT teams will see a reduced need for basic administration and maintenance, freeing them up for higher-value activities". Cloud-tethered compute systems will enable "IT operations to be more flexible and aligned with business demands."
Gartner notes that key drivers of cloud-tethered compute systems include:
Need to connect to local data sources over low-latency network
Ability to deliver a cloudlike experience using on-premises infrastructure
Promise of "evergreen" technology refresh solutions that keep systems up-to-date with the latest technology".
