Gartner Anoints File Systems And Object Storage 'Peer Insights' Winners
Blocks&Files, April 18th, 2023
Analyst house Gartner says its customers have listed the companies they think are above average distributed file systems and/or object storage suppliers.
Topping the list was Huawei, MinIO, Nutanix, Pure and WEKA.
A Peer Insights document from Gartner has a table showing this, and explains what is going on:
Like the Magic Quadrant (MQ) this is a 4-box diagram but the suppliers are listed alphabetically within a box, not with precise positioning inside a 2D space defined by their scores on the two axes. Gartner's Voice of the Customer (VoC) box diagram has much lower granularity than the MQ.
