The overall HCI system sales segment reported $1.8 billion in 2Q19 revenue with a growth of 23.7% year over year and continues to make up the largest segment of the overall Converged Systems industry at 46.6%.
Dell also lead the traditional converged systems segment (Certified Reference Systems+ Integrated Systems (CRS+II)) segment once again, with a 59.5% revenue share. This was due to its VxBlock Systems, Ready Solutions and Ready Stack, which helped marked 30 consecutive quarters as the leader in this segment. Overall, the CRS+II grew 10.5% year over year (at $1.5 billion in 2Q19) and accounts for 37.5% of total converged systems revenue. For integrated platforms, sales declined 14.4% year over year during the second quarter of 2019, generating $626 million worth of sales and amounting to 16.0% of the total converged systems market revenue
Dell EMC’s CRS+II revenue of $872.5 million increased more than 36.4% year over year in 2Q19.
