Convedia manufactures proprietary hardware and software. Their gadgets handle media streams (such as internet-based telephone calls, streaming movies, and prosaic recorded announcements) and are found in networks everywhere.
Recently Convedia announced that they will "disaggregate their software from their hardware. Instead of being bound just to their proprietary hardware, they will put their software inside everything from "purpose-built high end media servers, through ATCA blade and hardware accelerator products, to software-only implementations running on generic Linux servers or embedded in proprietary third-party platforms such as routers, switches, and gateways." It's a bold move, and one that illustrates perfectly how to use disaggregation to find new products inside old ones.
