Analysis: Software and Hardware Integration or Leading Firms Locked in Swamps

The way that mainstream technology companies build and think about IT solutions is changing. Looking at the latest releases of IBM, HP, and Oracle recently, you will find that the focus is on "integration" and "interoperability." And these manufacturers tend to lock in more and more vendors.

Now everywhere there is software that "hardens" in some way with the hardware to optimize the performance of both. These devices provide end-user organizations with several advantages: because everything is pre-configured and pre-tested, it can be implemented more easily and quickly; devices tend to build more redundancy to ensure maximum availability. No longer bounce back and forth between hardware vendors and software vendors like problem balls. This will ensure that we know exactly where the problem lies.

The largest release of Oracle OpenWorld is also the best embodiment of this transfer. Oracle announced the latest device solution Exalytics, mainly for its Hadoop or NoSQL based big data device. Then more talked about Exadata, this software and hardware combination is mainly used for the company's data warehouse equipment.

I would like to ask if this method can succeed today. Look at the iPod right now. An article on ZDNet pointed out that Apple has successfully applied this method to the consumer market. Although unlike other large enterprise vendors, Apple did not enter the service or software area through acquisitions.

How do manufacturers deal with solutions to deal with this transition? First of all, we have to consider cloud computing, which has created huge competitive pressures for traditional vendors that provide similar feature solutions, such as ease of use, ease of deployment, and low management costs. Furthermore, the inherent profitability of the hardware itself.

Overall, the main catalyst for hardware to continue to rise is integrated solutions. By having core integration processes behind software, services, and hardware products, vendors can better establish more effective and cost-effective ways to integrate solutions one by one. This is why it is extremely important for IT vendors to have complete software, services, and hardware stacks. But this also led to some "side effects", that is, the vendor lock-up that we said at the beginning.

Once you have invested in one of these systems, you may have the option to switch to another software component. Similarly, hardware is also the case, if the vendor does not want to update the new component to the current device, we are trapped by the existing hardware.
