You might not have heard of EMC, but it’s a technology behemoth that runs many of the services you use today.
The company provides datacenter storage for large technology companies — and today, it’s been acquired by Dell.
It’s the largest technology acquisition ever, coming in at $67 billion and eclipsing the next-largest in which Avago acquired chipset maker Broadcom for $37 billion in May 2015.
The offer put to EMC by Dell is $33.15 per share, with the remainder in securities equating to the value of EMC-controlled VMware, which will remain a listed company.
