EMC has extended its Ionix platform with the acquisition
ofFastScale
Technology, a California-based provider of software
platforms, to support private cloud infrastructures.
EMC said FastScale bolsters Ionix by simplifying end-to-end
management and improving the performance, density and efficiency of
applications and software deployed on unified infrastructures.
Ionix is EMC's product family for automating IT management
across a unified infrastructure of storage, compute, network and
virtualisation resources.

deeper management capabilities via FastScale's unique application
stack management and provisioning, but we also begin to help
customers fundamentally change the way they approach compliance,
security and configuration management in the private cloud."
