From The Rumor Mill -- IBM To Buy Diligent
IBM, like EMC and Sun, sells FalconStor's VTL software under an OEM license bundled with IBM hardware. Also like the other three letter OEMs, IBM has to date not announced that its also OEMing FalconStor's deduping software. With the acquisition of Diligent, IBM will have a deduping VTL of its own differentiating it from SUN and EMC and annoying HDS to no end, as it's pretty deeply in bed with Diligent. Since no one at either company has anything more enlightening than "No comment" to say, we'll just have to wait and see what happens. « Clarke Never Crossed Sci-Fi Humanities Divide | Main | CNN Creates Citizen Journalism Channels On Web, In Second Life » |
