Business Wire
VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW) today announced that leading analyst
firm IDC ranked VMware No. 1 in the worldwide IT automation and
configuration management (ITACM) software market (1) for 2019. The
industry is transitioning from traditional workload management
solutions to automated infrastructure and application configuration
and provisioning, DevOps life-cycle operations, and self-service
automation of hybrid cloud infrastructure, and VMware is dedicated
to supporting its customers as they modernize.
“For the third year in a row, customers have helped VMware to
the top spot in the Worldwide IT Automation and Configuration
category,” said Ajay Singh, senior vice president and general
manager, Cloud Management Business Unit, VMware. “Organizations
want solutions that help them streamline operations, modernize
infrastructure automation, reduce human error, and more rapidly
respond to the needs of their business. That is why VMware is
investing in solutions that help customers navigate both the
opportunities and challenges of today’s fast-changing
automation-first environment.”
Sustaining Leadership in IT Automation and Configuration
Management
The IDC report, “Worldwide IT Automation and Configuration
Management Software Market Shares, 2019: Market Expands Ahead of
Coronavirus Impact,” analyzes revenue and growth rate for the total
market in 2019, as well as revenues, market shares and growth rates
of the leading vendors. According to IDC, VMware led in worldwide
IT automation and configuration management software revenue for the
third consecutive year—more than eight percentage points ahead of
the No. 2 ranked vendor—based on IDC calculations of 2019 calendar
year revenues.
The report notes that “IT executives continue to invest in
automation across infrastructure and operations and development
teams. Private, hybrid, public, and multicloud investments, when
combined with automation investments, are driving higher ROIs and
faster business outcomes.” The report also states, “VMware
continues to take a strategic focus on its management portfolio,
spreading R&D investments across core management suites
(vRealize Suite and vCloud Suite) that can enable a lower TCO for
its franchise products across datacenter, desktop, networking,
security, telecom, and storage products.”
