Once upon a time there were two suppliers with VDI-focussed storage arrays: GreenBytes,with an all-flash array; and Tintri, with a hybrid flash/disk array technology. Now GreenBytes has become a software-only business. Why?
The reasoning, outlined by GreenBytes’ CEO and chairman Stephen O’Donnell, is that over time mid-market customers will go to the cloud for their compute and storage, while enterprise customers will increasingly prefer to buy converged systems from OEMs.
