14 DAY TRIAL // We saw that SanDisk formed an exclusive partnership with Diskeeper and, now, the same company is revealed to have initiated the process for acquiring FlashSoft.
FlashSoft is a developer of software for enterprises that want to make do with smaller and cheaper storage configurations but still operate optimally.
Among other things, its products can lead to servers that operate more virtual machines than usual.
SanDisk will offer this type of software with its SAS, PCI Express and SATA enterprise products.
The company will also sell the software standalone, not just packaged with hardware.
“The acquisition of FlashSoft represents an important step in SanDisk’s strategy of delivering complete SSD and software solutions to enterprise storage customers,” said Sanjay Mehrotra, president and CEO of SanDisk.
“FlashSoft’s software products complement our growing family of SAS, PCIe and SATA Enterprise SSDs, and we are pleased to welcome FlashSoft to the SanDisk family.”
