I found this little blog entry from http://storagezilla.typepad.com/storagezilla/2011/09/is-emc-now-in-the-server-business.html.

Interesting read. Signs of things to come?

I am a technology blogger with 20 years of IT experience. I write heavily on technologies related to storage networking and data management because that is my area of interest and expertise. I introduce technologies with the objectives to get readers to *know the facts*, and use that knowledge to cut through the marketing hypes, FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt) and other fancy stuff. Only then, there will be progress. I am involved in SNIA (Storage Networking Industry Association) and presently the Chairman of SNIA Malaysia. My day job is to run 2 companies - Storage Networking Academy and ZedFS Systems. Storage Networking Academy provides open-technology courses in storage networking (foundation to advanced) as well as Cloud Computing. We strives to ensure vendor-neutrality as much as we can in our offerings. At ZedFS Systems, we offer both storage infrastructure and software solution called Zed OpenStorage. We developed Zed OpenStorage based on the Solaris kernel, ZFS file system and DTrace storage analytics.

    Sign of things to come. There’s talk about storage and compute sharing resources as well (CPU specifically) and possibly have storage controllers running as VMs. Just talk though.. probably 5 years in the future.

      Hi Ammar,

      Thanks for sharing … if this happens, storage will be the center of the universe … which is fine and dandy for us storage geeks 😀
