Gemstone Acquired Again

May 7, 2010 6:53:04.532

Gemstone has been acquired again - by a big player:

SpringSource, a division of VMware, Inc, and the leader in Java application infrastructure and management, today announced that VMware has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire GemStone Systems, Inc., a privately held provider of enterprise data management solutions based in Beaverton, Oregon

We'll have to wait to see what - if anything - that means for the Smalltalk business there. The focus of the acquisition seems to be Gemfire.

For the foreseeable future there should be no impact on the Smalltalk product line ... other than positive ones:)

oops ... the previous comment "For the foreseeable future there should be no impact on the Smalltalk product line" was mine:)
