(InfoWorld) - Hewlett-Packard Co. is acquiring a storage software company that the company says will give it important leverage in the enterprise-class network-attached storage (NAS) market. HP on Monday signed a definitive agreement to acquire PolyServe Inc., of Beaverton, Oregon, but did not disclose the terms of the transaction. PolyServe has 117 employees. With PolyServe's software, information from file or database servers can be consolidated into a single, shared pool of storage that is highly available and can be expanded to match business demands, HP said in a news release. PolyServe, founded in 1999, has been an HP partner for the last two years. Its software can run on HP's storage arrays and Proliant servers in Linux and Microsoft Corp. Windows environments. The acquisition also means HP can run PolyServe software on NAS blade servers. Blades are the fastest growing segment of the server industry. HP placed second to EMC Corp. in storage hardware revenue in the third quarter of 2006, according to a report from IDC. HP held 17.6 percent of the worldwide market in the third quarter with sales of US$760 million, while EMC lead with a 21.4 percent share on revenue of $927 million.

(InfoWorld) - Banking and insurance conglomerate ING Group has finalized contracts worth â¬750 millionÂ ($994 million) with a consortium of companies to provide workspace services for its 53,000 employees in Europe. The contracts with Royal KPN, Getronics, Atos Origin, and AccentureÂ are each for seven years and cover the installation, maintenance, and support of desktop PCs, laptops, printers and telephones, the companies said Thursday. It's the biggest of three outsourcing deals that ING has finalized recently, worth a combined total of â¬1.3 billion. They are part of a cost-cutting plan announced last November that is designed to save the company â¬460 million per year, including â¬230 million from operations and IT. ABN AMRO Bank made a similar moveÂ last year, announcing a plan to outsource its IT operations worldwide in a series of deals worth â¬1.8 billion over five years. The bulk of that contract went to IBM. KPN took the biggest slice of the latest ING contract. It was awarded â¬269 million to provide fixed and mobile communications, call center, LAN (local area networking) and conferencing services for staff in the Netherlands and Belgium. Atos Origin was awarded â¬216 million to design and manage ING's back-end office automation, including e-mail and the active directory, and provide related support for end users. Getronics was awarded â¬213 million for help desk and on-site support for end users, as well as hardware purchasing and asset management. Accenture was awarded â¬52 million to be the "integrator," coordinating services and managing the supplier contracts. When ING announced an initial agreement with the four companies in July it said the contracts would run for five years and be worth about â¬800 million. It estimated that 550 full-time employees would be transferred to the contractors. That number will now be 430, it said Thursday. Of the earlier outsourcing contracts, on Nov. 6 ING finalized a six-year, â¬200 million deal with LogicaCMG for application management, IT maintenance and testing. And on Dec. 6 it signed a seven-year, â¬350 million contract with the U.K.'s Astron to process its banking and insurance documents.
