Datamation:  Is Citrix's $500 Million Purchase of XenSource Paying Off?
   


Writer Jeff Vance talks with industry analysts and Citrix CMO Wes Wasson to determine the success of Citrix in the server virtualization space since acquiring XenSource in 2007.  Vance points out that “one of the big questions with any acquisition, regardless of its size, is how well the organizations integrate. By this measure, the XenSource acquisition has been a success. Citrix has rolled out an enterprise-class virtualization portfolio based on Xen and changed its pricing model, giving away XenServer and focusing on selling virtualization management capabilities.”
