EMC Secures Its Future
Enterprise Storage Forum – Sep 22, 2006
”
IBM, for example, has announced security enhancements that tie together operating systems, mainframe processors, software and storage systems, including tape, as part of a cross-domain, total ecosystem approach. Sun, on the other hand, handles security from a server and host software perspective, while companies like Cisco prefer a network model, where they sit between users and servers, and servers and storage. “EMC is moving up from being a storage hardware and storage management software vendor into a broader data and information management role that has to include a strong security element,” says Greg Schulz, senior analyst and founder of StorageIO. “To remain competitive, vendors need to expand their offerings. Thus, traditional storage vendors must add value beyond storage systems without losing sight of their bread and butter business. ”
Growing Dominance
By spending tens of billions on mergers over the last decade, EMC has steadily expanded its dominance in the storage sector. “EMC has spent probably the equivalent of the GNP of some small nations on acquisitions over the past 10 to 15 years” says Schulz… If EMC is able to successfully harness these areas in conjunction with its own core competencies, it can further strengthen its position in the market. “A key determinant of M&A success is, of course, the integration piece,” says Taylor. “Very few companies succeed in this area even if the target and the deal itself is well-planned and executed. ”
Schultz concurs. But he believes EMC’s track record is better than many in this regard. Centera, CLARiiON and VMware are three examples where the company has added value via an acquisition. Not every acquisition has been a resounding success, however.
