IDC's Worldwide Storage and Computing Infrastructure Software Platforms Taxonomy, 2024
This IDC taxonomy document provides a detailed description of our storage and computing infrastructure software platforms research coverage. This taxonomy is made up of two core secondary markets, which are further broken down into six functional markets specifically tracked by this research program."Storage and computing infrastructure software are key enabling elements of organizational infrastructure platforms and strategies that aid in supporting digital transformation (DX)," said Greg Macatee, research manager, Infrastructure Software Platforms at IDC. "This taxonomy document defines and maps these representative products and technologies accordingly. It also introduces new coverage around container data and infrastructure management software as part of IDC's storage and computing infrastructure software platforms syndicated research program."
