Corio, Inc.

Corio, Inc. was an enterprise Application Service Provider (ASP) founded in September 1998 in San Carlos, California, and incorporated in Delaware, formed by acquiring the capital stock of Data Systems Connectors, Inc. Corio implemented, hosted and managed packaged enterprise business software from Oracle, PeopleSoft, SAP, Ariba and Siebel Systems on behalf of medium and large public, private, non-profit and public sector customers, delivering ERP, CRM and e-business functionality as a service from secure third-party data centers over IP networks. The company operated two lines of business — Application Management Services and Professional Services — and partnered with (i)Structure, XO Communications and Qwest for data center and network infrastructure. Backed by Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers (29.5% pre-IPO across the KPCB Java Fund, KPCB VIII, KPCB VIII Founders Fund and KPCB Information Sciences Zaibatsu Fund II, with Vinod Khosla and Ted Schlein on the board) and Cap Gemini Ernst & Young, Corio went public on NASDAQ in 2000. IBM agreed to acquire Corio on 24 January 2005 for $2.82 per share in cash via Nike Acquisition Corp.; Corio filed its Form 15 deregistration on 15 March 2005 and was absorbed into IBM. The company is defunct, publishes no API, developer portal or documentation, and corio.com is a parked domain — there is no API surface to enrich.

  notes: 'Identity resolved and verified against SEC EDGAR (CIK 0001111001): defunct enterprise ASP acquired by IBM in 2005.
    No API, docs, packages, well-known documents or event surface exist. corio.com resolves to a parked soft-404 catch-all
    (208.91.197.195) that returns HTTP 200 for every path, so no well-known artifacts were harvestable. No GitHub org (404);
    npm "corio" is an empty placeholder with zero versions and PyPI "corio" is unrelated third-party tooling by fmtr — neither
    is first-party, so no packages artifact was written.'
