THE WRITING IS ON THE WALL

By delivering ViPR … we will provide our customers with a lightweight, software-only approach to storage management“ ”VMware’s software-defined storage strategy will bring the same levels of abstraction and automation to the storage infrastructure…“ ”We are a software defined storage company today. While we are building storage systems out of commodity disks, the value is in the software“ ”
