In February the most popular virtualization company for P2V migrations , PlateSpin, was acquired by Novell for $205 Million.
In October, the founder and CEO Stephen Pollack left his own creature for personal reasons, but he couldn’t stay away of the virtualization market for much time: today the startup Embotics announces that he joined its Advisory Board.
Pollack certainly has the position to facilitate the acquisition of Embotics or at least the introduction to the thousands of PlateSpin customers.
For sure this is a good move from this young company focused on the so called VM lifecycle management market.
