EMC Acquires Authentica: Page 3 of 3

The storage giant is not the only vendor making moves in this space at the moment. Rival HP, for example, is also planning more M&A, and smaller vendors Vignette and Interwoven are also making their presence felt. (See HP Plans HW/SW Upgrades, Vignette Helps Connecticut, Vignette, Sun, DaimlerChrysler Team, Interwoven Acquires Scrittura, and Interwoven Delivers Content Storage .)

The EMC spokesman confirmed that all 23 Authentica employees, including CEO John Bruce, will be moving over to the storage vendor, although the startup's headquarters in Lexington, Mass., will be closed: "They will be brought into EMC facilities."
