IBM to acquire Texas Memory Systems
Added On:8/17/2012 9:26:00 AM

In a bid to augment its line of storage and data center systems with solid state technology, the tech giant IBM is planning to acquire flash memory system provider Texas Memory Systems (TMS). 

Founded in 1978, Texas Memory Systems is a high-end enterprise storage technology provider, which sells high performance solid state disk-based storage systems under the product name 'RamSan'. TMS offers both rack-mounted storage as well as PCIe cards embedded with flash. 

It is reportedly said that IBM is actually planning to incorporate TMS products into IBM's PureSystems prepackaged hardware systems, as well as into IBM’s other storage, server and software product lines. However, IBM will continue to support the products TMS has already sold to customers, as well as invest in improving TMS technologies. 

According to Brian Truskowski, IBM’s General Manager of systems storage and networking, solid state technologies will become a core component of Smarter Storage line of storage systems after Texas Memory Systems (TMS)’s acquisition. 

The financial terms of the deal have not been disclosed, yet. However, the deal is expected to close later this year.
