He brings his expertise to lead the research in the hyper-converged and virtual SAN technology areas. With his addition to the staff, Evaluator Group will also expand coverage of open storage latforms.
 
New developments in storage include disaggregation of systems with software that is independent of the hardware. Now we see storage hardware from vendors that previously did not sell complete storage systems,” said Randy Kerns, senior strategist, Evaluator Group. “This has led to the open storage platform, which is the basis for creation of storage offerings to meet differing demands in both cloud (private and public) and traditional IT environments.”
 
I’m excited to be joining this first-class organization and cover these hot topics in our industry,” Slack said.
 
Slack joins Evaluator Group with 25 years of technology experience, ranging from senior product manager for a data protection and archive storage systems manufacturer, to regional manager for a national systems integrator that designed and implemented storage systems. He has spent the last six years as a senior analyst where he focused on scale-out architectures, virtual SAN, software-defined storage, and hyper-converged solutions. He has written over 500 articles, blogs, and product analyses on a range of topics in the storage, virtualization, and cloud technology spaces.
 
Eric brings his knowledge of storage systems, virtualization and cloud technologies that will help Evaluator Group expand its coverage into open storage platforms,” said Camberley Bates, MD, Evaluator Group. “In addition to maintaining research in the hyper-converged technology area, Eric Slack will be developing reviews and education on products and solutions from these vendors.”
