At the end of 2007, EMC acquired the online backup vendor, Mozy, and formally entered the cloud storage service area, and at the end of 2008 set up a Decho online personal information Management Service company, Mozy Cloud storage services as the new company's flagship product. The Mozy business continued to consolidate, including early this year when EMC announced that Mozy would terminate the provision of unlimited cloud storage services. According to the latest foreign reports, EMC Mozy business again, mozy business will belong to another EMC company--vmware.
EMC has done a lot of work over the past few years on cloud storage services, including the introduction of cloud storage services for enterprise-class users Atmosonline, and cloud storage service mozy for small and midsize enterprises and individual users; But for infrastructure companies, the role of cloud service providers is clearly not yet fully adapted , EMC announced in 2009 that it would terminate the Atmosonline cloud storage online service, according to EMC's official statement-"EMC can more fully develop its expertise in technology research and development, making Atmos an open, neutral cloud storage technology platform, Provide technical support to more cloud service providers. It was also speculated that EMC had decisively terminated the Atmosonline service business because of the atmosonline operating expenses that vastly exceeded the revenue from its services. Today, EMC is Mozy business to VMware, do not know what the purpose?
The
Emcdecho subsidiary is a mozy and pi combination, with two companies being acquired by EMC in October 2007 and February 2008 respectively. In addition to the Mozy business, Decho has not released other services at the time, and EMC did not disclose the details of the Decho service's timing process and the members of the management team at the time of its inception, which was headquartered in Utah State, India Bangalore, Montreal, Canada, and Seattle, USA. However, after the Mozy business has been adjusted to VMware, further information about how the Decho company's operations will be adjusted remains to be announced by EMC.
, a spokesman for EMC and VMware's two companies, said the main reason for the change was that Mozy and VMware, with cloud services, would focus more on the cloud software itself, Mozy and VMware's product decisions more closely matched than Mozy and EMC.
Mozy chief marketing officer and vice president of product management Russstockdale that this behind-the-scenes change will not have any impact on Mozy users, all service level agreements will remain unchanged, Mozy and VMware will have more opportunities to work together, This is important for the two companies to forge a closer relationship in the future.
regardless of how the Mozy adjusted to VMware, EMC's actions suggest that it is not fit to play the role of a cloud service provider, and that instead of tying up the mozy development, let it do it under VMware.
