As enterprises increasingly rely on IT to help enable their business strategies, they require their IT infrastructure to be more powerful, agile, and cost effective. Enterprises need continual system availability, demand ubiquitous access, and rapid responses to their dynamic business requirements. With the increasing demand to provide these functions and address the associated challenges, fabric based computing concept has been developed.

Fabric based computing is an approach that enables enterprises to establish the network as pools of processors, memory, I/O connections, adapters, network connections and storage. All these components are procured individually, integrated on the fly and are managed through a ‘Fabric Resource Pool Manager.’

Fabric based computing is also termed as unified computing and is related to unified fabric, data center fabric, grid computing and unified data centers. Fabric based computing has various components including storage, server, networking, applications, DBMS, middleware and management.

Fabric based computing, with its integrated architecture, eliminates manual integration, therefore breaking down the silos of compute, storage, and network resources. It offers high speed of connection and robust management, which empowers customers to take hyper-speed analytics and business insights to a new level.

Major factors expected to drive the growth of fabric based computing market includes virtualization, component commoditization, automation, convergence and general purpose vertically integrated stacks. Speedy deployment due to the integrated components, demand for reducing the cost of human labor and increased capacity utilization are some other factors which can propel the market growth in the coming years.

Challenges which are expected to hamper the growth of fabric based computing on a broad scale include incompatibility of traditional ROI models with fabric based computing approach, vendor lock-in, limits regarding customization, application-specific vertically integrated stacks and in memory computing.

Key players operating in the global fabric based computing market are IBM Corporation, Teradata, TIBCO Software, Cisco Systems, Atos, Unisys, Egenera, Inc., Oracle, Dell EMC and VMware.

Fabric-based Computing is still in a nascent stage of adoption but the concept and the number of building blocks are gaining ground rapidly. The concept is expected to address the objectives of many IT enterprises, with a unified approach, based on continuously negotiated terms between providers and consumers. In a nutshell, fabric based computing concept is poised to becomes a key pillar for next-generation enterprise IT architectures and is expected to be utilized by a large part of many enterprises.
