OFweek电子工程网 中字

  【OFweek电子工程网翻译 Laven】美国存储芯片供应商美光科技周五(20日)宣布收购 PCIe 虚拟化解决方案供应商Virtensys公司。

  美光科技表示,此次收购将有助于进一步扩大其存储阵容,将Virtensys的PCIe虚拟化技术与美光的固态硬盘相结合,使数据中心可共享多个服务器的本地存储。

  美光科技副总裁兼首席存储系统架构师Edward Doller表示,Virtensys公司的PCIe共享技术改变了数据中心操作员管理和部署虚拟化I/O资源的方式,而美光公司基于PCIe的固态硬盘可提供市场领先的速度、可靠性和功效。此次收购将使两家企业的技术解决方案相结合,实现固态硬盘存储虚拟化,形成一个更灵活更动态的数据中心。

  Virtensys公司于2005年成立,于2009年推出了可实现服务器I/O虚拟化的聚合交换机。与传统的服务器和聚合交换机相比,Virtensys的产品旨在降低成本和功耗并促进管理。

  美光科技表示此次收购预计于本月底完成,有关收购的具体细节不便透漏。

Micron buys storage virtualization startup

U.S. memory chip vendor Micron Technology Inc. announced Friday (Jan. 20) the acquisition of Virtensys Ltd., a privately held provider of PCIe-sharing solutions based in Manchester, England, and Beaverton, Ore. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Micron (Boise, Idaho) said the acquisition would strengthen its enterprise storage portfolio by allowing it to pair its solid state drives (SSDs) with Virtensys' PCIe virtualization technology, enabling data centers to share local storage across multiple servers.

"Virtensys' PCIe-sharing technology has helped change the way data center operators manage and deploy their virtualized I/O resources, and Micron's enterprise PCIe drive delivers market-leading speed, reliability and power efficiency," said Edward Doller, Micron vice president and chief memory systems architect, in a statement. "This agreement would enable a combination of enterprise technology solutions that have the opportunity to virtualize SSD storage on the path to a more flexible and dynamic data center."

Virtensys founded in 2005, rolled out aggregation switches that virtualize server I/O in hardware in 2009. The company's systems aim to lower cost and power consumption and ease management compared to traditional servers and aggregation switches.

The transaction is subject to closing conditions and is currently anticipated to close by the end of the month, Micron said. Specific terms of the proposed agreement are confidential, the company said.
