As the company transitions to be a multi-platform player, the feeling is to have management who are experts about software, the converged infrastructure market, and familiar with the players in the space. Ergo the new CEO, and ergo the new levels of backing from investors. The company is still hiring in its field and OEM spaces, and in conversations with multiple IHV partners.

Egenera's foundational Processing Area Network (PAN) architecture, the SAN-like stuff that virtualizes network, storage and compute resources so applications and data services can be provisioned, managed, moved and scaled, has been patented. The US patent is number 7,231,430. Filed for in January 2002, it took the Patent and Trademark Office three-and-a-half years to send back its first comment. The company also got a patent on accessing Windows consoles in a virtualized environment, No. 7,228,265.
