In this podcast, recorded live on 13th October 2017 in London, Chris talks to Violin Systems CEO, Ebrahim Abbasi. Violin Systems is the new name for Violin Memory, one of the pioneers of all-flash storage. Violin Memory entered chapter 11 in December 2016 and the company assets were eventually acquired by the Soros Group.
Violin Systems is back, with no debt, positive cashflow and plans for a strong future. Chris and Ebrahim discuss the software acquired from the relationship with Falconstor and taking a more software-focused approach to product development. We can expect scale-out, tiering and SDS-based solutions in the future. The discussion finishes up with a conversation about how the company will work to become credible and compete in an increasingly competitive all-flash market.
