Trying too hard to sound too smart. What is this, a high school newspaper?
If you want to insinuate that there is some sinister grand plan then how about, I don't know, investigate and provide proof? You know, being a journalist. Instead we have to read smartass innuendo in which you are trying way too hard to sound "edgy".
Looked into the Veeam HyperFlex thing, looks like not everyone can do that with APIs as you claim. HyperFlex is the only hyperconverged solution that allows native snapshot integation with Veeam. Couldn't find anything for VSAN, Nutanix, or Windows SS Direct. Would have appreciated if you had spent mote time on research than peddling ridiculous theories.
