COO: VCE converged infrastructure not affected by Dell-EMC

#VCE's converged systems cater to a wide array of users, but will still differ from #Dell 's converged products after the purchase of VCE's parent company, #EMC, according to COO Todd Pavone.

Like its parent company, EMC, VCE is going through a transition period. VCE recently named longtime EMC executive Chad Sakac its president to oversee the converged infrastructure group, which will likely grow in importance when server vendor Dell completes its $67 billionacquisition of EMC.

VCE COO Todd Pavone, who was part of VCE since its 2009 inception, said some things won't change -- even after Dell assumes control of EMC. Pavone said #Cisco will remain in its current role as a VCE partner, and VCE's converged infrastructure products differ enough from Dell's converged offerings to avoid overlap.

VCE consists of three main converged system products: the #Vblock, which uses Cisco networking and servers; #VxRack for hyperscale environments; and the #EVO:RAIL appliance #VSPEX Blue.

SearchVirtualStorage recently talked to Pavone about VCE's converged infrastructure portfolio and strategy going forward as EMC's main converged infrastructure business.
