VCE's Hyper-Converged VxRail Gets Refreshed
VCE, founded in 2009 as a partnership of EMC, VMware, Cisco Systems and Intel, has become one of the world's top-selling hyperconverged server/storage/networking hardware makers. EMC bought out Cisco a couple of years ago, Intel has dropped away and VMware now only owns a small fraction of the company. VCE, with its VBlock, VxRail and VxRack products leading the way, is nearing a $2 billion per year run rate for the parent company. There was a lot of interest in VxRail at the conference; users basically plug them in, connect, set policies and let them run themselves.
