Datrium

Datrium was a Sunnyvale, California enterprise infrastructure company founded in 2012 by Brian Biles and Hugo Patterson (both formerly of Data Domain / EMC). Its flagship DVX ("Distributed Virtual X") platform introduced an "open convergence" architecture that separated compute from durable storage for virtualized data centers, and the company later pivoted toward cloud disaster-recovery-as-a-service (Datrium DRaaS with DRaaS Connect and ControlShield). Datrium was backed by Lightspeed Venture Partners, NEA, and others, and was acquired by VMware in July 2020, with its technology folded into VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery. The company no longer operates independently and publishes no active developer portal or public API. This profile is retained in the API Evangelist network as a historical portfolio-company record surfaced from Lightspeed Venture Partners' portfolio.

Datrium is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Hyperconverged Infrastructure, Data Storage, Disaster Recovery, and Cloud.
