Who has provided VIM's besides EMC?

[Bryce Godfrey]

Information about who actually is supporting XAM and providing VIM's
to access their storage system seems hard to find. XAM seems like a
perfect candidate to allow my company to monitor multiple storage
systems with a single API, but its hard to find information about XAM
support outside of EMC.
A single repository of links and what not would be very helpfull
instead of googling around hoping for the best.

Hi Bryce,

SNIA plans to put such a page up, for all the platforms and ISVs to
list their products and offerings.

The platform support includes:

- Sun: http://opensolaris.org/os/project/honeycomb/
- HP: http://h71028.www7.hp.com/enterprise/w1/en/software/information-management-governance-ediscovery-integrated-archive-platform.html
- Storageswitch to enable storage platforms: http://www.storageswitch.com/

Several of the ISVs releasing product in 2009 include:
