Relationship Will Drive Accelerated Product Development to Meet Customer Needs

GlobalLogic, with engineering centers across North America, Europe, India, and South America, was selected after a comprehensive review of five potential partners. Violin Memory chose GlobalLogic in part because of the synergy between the two organizations, which will bring together talent and technical expertise in cloud storage.

This partnership will accelerate the development of the next generation platform for Violin Memory with ongoing R&D projects augmenting existing resources.

The GlobalLogic engineering center in Kiev has already begun working with Violin Memory on software QA and will expand into other areas of product development beginning in August, 2016.
