Sales staff exodus at PernixData as Nutanix gobbles up caching biz

Analysis Amid mounting evidence that #Nutanix has bought #PernixData, both companies are still keeping their lips firmly and officially sealed. Pernix insiders and several well-placed industry sources have now confirmed the acquisition privately to The Register. Separately, Dan Edson – senior director of marketing operations, automation and demand generation at PernixData – updated his LinkedIn page to read, at one point, "PernixData (Acquired by Nutanix)." That admission has since been scrubbed from his profile. Edson is still at Pernix. Meanwhile, ex-Pernix CTO Frank Denneman told us Nutanix has bought the company. We have also learned Denneman was not the only leaver. Here's what we know of the PernixData sales and marketing staff exodus:
