Continuing its acquisitive streak, EMC announced the purchase of network management software company System Management Arts, Inc., also known as SMARTS. Recently, EMC has been doing a lot of work in the area of ILM or Information Lifecycle Management. EMC developed the first Content Addressed Storage system, called Centera. This radical platform continued to address the specific needs of ILM in a rapidly changing technical environment. History EMC began in 1979, founded by Richard (Dick) Egan and Roger Marino. Originally a manufacturer of memory boards, (and before that, selling computer furniture) they quickly began expanding beyond memory to disk drives. Spurred on by the brainpower of Moshe Yanai, EMC quickly grew to the top with innovative and large storage platforms. A series of acquisitions helped grow EMC to the number one spot of data storage platforms in the world. External links
