NVELO has done an exceptional job making SSD caching work in an almost seamless way, as well as delivering on the promise of SSD speeds and hard drive capacity at a very affordable price point. While NVELO has had aspirations of penetrating the enterprise space, they’ve found greatest traction in consumer computing where caching is fertile new ground. NVELO’s storage technology integration into Samsung’s SSD unit will give customers access to a more diversified portfolio of NAND storage solutions and likely ultimately ends up in the hands of enterprise customers where caching technology is more readily deployed and competition is intensifying.
The full details of the agreement were not disclosed; however, the acquisition involves all technology and personnel under NVELO, Inc.
