In 2009, SYNNEX’s System Integration Division, focused heavily on the server/storage/appliance market as demand for custom servers in large-scale deployments, ignited. This prompted SYNNEX SVP and general manager, Steve Ichinaga, and a small team to create a new group better able to meet this niche’s unique needs. The group’s custom hyperscale server business exploded after Steve led a partnership with Facebook, which in turn fed into the creation of the Open Compute Project and this SYNNEX group becoming the world’s first OCP Solutions Provider. Steve officially founded Hyve Solutions, a wholly owned subsidiary SYNNEX Corporation, in 2011. He currently heads Hyve Solutions as well as engineering-focused Hyve Design Solutions, founded in 2019 to deepen and strengthen the team’s total value to hyperscale datacenter customers.
