In the latest example of a small software firm with cutting-edge technology being scooped up by a big-name tech player, privately held Trigo Technologies has agreed to be acquired by IBM (NYSE: IBM) , where its technology will become part of Big Blue's burgeoning middleware portfolio. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. Trigo, which is based in Brisbane, California, and is a longtime partner of IBM, has offices around the world and approximately 150 employees.
IBM said it will integrate Trigo's data synchronization software, which is used by major companies to streamline their back-office supply-chain operations, into its hugely popular WebSphere enterprise software platform.
