History

DynamicOps' establishment is connected to Credit Suisse. Its original virtualization software was initially developed inside Credit Suisse’s Global Research and Development Group in 2005. In 2007, after having deployed and used the software to manage its virtual machines, Credit Suisse Ventures decided to fund a separate company to further develop and market the product. DynamicOps was incorporated on January 31, 2008, and publicly launched later that spring.[1] Leslie Muller, who led the development effort at Credit Suisse, became the co-founder and CTO of DynamicOps. The company had raised a total of $27M in venture funding from Credit Suisse, Intel Capital,[2][3] Sierra Ventures,[4] and Next World Capital. Additionally, DynamicOps had a multi-year licensing and distribution agreement with Dell,[5] in which DynamicOps software was a component of Virtual Integrated System solution.

In July 2012, DynamicOps was acquired by VMware for a price ranging from $100 to $150 million.[6]
