NEW! Top 10 Storage Startups to Watch: Page 15 of 24

Thanks to its integration with virtualization, Racemi's software can help in configuration and provisioning projects that involve both physical and virtual servers. "We handle all the things that VMware doesn't," explains Hoffman. "When you deploy a VM in a disaster recovery environment, VMware does not configure the network and storage surrounding the VM."

Hoffman offers Racemi's partnership with BladeLogic as a further example of DynaCenter's capabilities. "BladeLogic manages all the configuration stuff, they document it, and we act on it."

The startup told Byte and Switch that it has racked up around eight customers for DynaCenter, including CDC Software and Acton, Mass.-based auditing firm Lumigent.

Racemi is looking to increase its 36-strong workforce to over 100 people during the next 12 months, Hoffman says, with a focus on software development, and sales.

The startup, which clinched $3.4 million in A-1 funding from Atlanta-based Pattillo Investments LLC in early 2007, is considering a large funding round this year to fund additional hires and marketing, according to Hoffman.
