  • Company Description
    Over the years, the team of ScaleIO founders has been involved in various situations in which a customer had acquired expensive SAN products that were standing unopened, still in their cartons and shrink wrap, in the data center. The reason? Not enough power, cooling, or switch ports to connect the storage. At the same time, thousands of internal disks, supporting just a few gigabytes of operating system each, were spinning in the application servers, hogging power, cooling and space.
