VergeIO Wins ‘Best of Show' at 19 th Annual FMS Awards
BUSINESS WIRE)-- VergeIO, the VMware alternative and pioneer in ultraconverged infrastructure, was named Most Innovative Startup Company at FMS: the Future of Memory and Storage, the industry's premier event for next-generation memory and storage technologies. FMS Best of Show (BoS) Awards recognizes companies' products and solutions as innovative leaders in the memory and storage technologies industry. There are eight distinct award categories which address the wide range of high-performance memory and storage innovations in the market. Criteria for nominations include innovative designs as well as the potential for industry leadership. The Most Innovative Startup Company award honors businesses on the entrepreneurial journey from inspiration and learning, all the way through startup, scale up and becoming a market disruptor, and a champion in the technology landscape. 'Virtual infrastructure has created great value for many generations of distributed systems and data centers, but virtualization platforms are increasingly challenged by cost, complexity and fragmentation. The future represents an entirely new class of infrastructure software for memory, storage and compute,' said Jay Kramer, Chair of the Awards Program and President of Network Storage Advisors Inc. 'We are proud to recognize VergeIO as the most innovative startup company for bringing to market a fully integrated, AI-ready infrastructure which merges compute, storage and networking into a single memory optimized operating environment. This includes VergeHV, an AI-optimized hypervisor with direct GPU access, VergeFabric, software-defined networking for high-throughput AI clusters, and VergeIQ to create isolated Virtual Data Centers (VDCs) to run and manage AI models securely, privately and at scale.' VergeIO is the leading VMware Alternative. Unlike hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI), its ultraconverged infrastructure (UCI) collapses the traditional IT stack (virtualization, storage and networking) into an integrated data center operating environment, VergeOS. Its efficiency enables greater workload density using existing hardware while improving data resiliency. The result is dramatically lower costs, improved availability and greatly simplified IT. 'Recognition of a job well done – whether it's by industry experts, partners or your customers – is always a validating experience,' said Yan Ness, CEO of VergeIO. 'In winning Most Innovative Startup Company at this year's FMS Awards, we have earned acknowledgement as a leader of storage technology that showcases our capabilities in delivering reduced costs, improved agility and increased performance for critical workloads. All of us at VergeIO look forward to continuing our mission to simplifying and improving IT infrastructures.' Taking place August 5–7 in the heart of Silicon Valley at the Santa Clara Convention Center, FMS 2025 is the world's largest industry conference and exhibition in this sector, FMS highlights mainstream applications, breakthrough innovations, key enabling technologies and the full spectrum of players – from leading vendors to disruptive startups. Additional information about the event is available at VergeIO is the leading VMware alternative, delivering a unified platform that converges virtualization, storage, networking, AI, and backup into a single software-defined solution.
