The blog was started by Ocarina Networks, developer of the world’s most advanced data-reduction solution for primary storage. Ocarina was acquired by Dell in July 2010 to accelerate Dell’s deployment of advanced optimization technologies across it’s entire product offering. The blog also features guest posts from industry leaders, customers, and influencers, on how storage innovations are helping to shape the future of data-driven businesses.
