As the company transitions to be a multi-platform player, the feeling is to have management who are experts about software, the converged infrastructure market, and familiar with the players in the space. Ergo the new CEO, and ergo the new levels of backing from investors. The company is still hiring in its field and OEM spaces, and in conversations with multiple IHV partners.

Rex Wang with Jeremy Geelan, Cloud Computing Expo Conference Chair, during his November 4 keynote at the Santa Clara Convention Center
