During the first European Tech Field Day Extra (at VMworld EU in Barcelona) the first company that we met was X-IO Technologies.

During the first European Tech Field Day Extra (at VMworld EU in Barcelona) we have met again VMTurbo. The presentation was pretty similar to the one at the past Virtualization Field Day 3 in Palo Alto earlier in 2014 (see this post).

The core founding team started VMTurbo in 2009 (the initial company was called SMARTS but was soon acquired by EMC), realizing that the rapid growth of virtualization in the datacenter was redefining the management requirements for companies of all sizes. The VMTurbo platform first launched in August 2010 and since that time more than 10,000 users worldwide.

There where Shmuel Kliger (President and Founder, VMTurbo) and Alec Kemp (Director of Systems Engineering, VMTurbo).
