      HPE has silently stopped making and supporting as of immediately, their OpenSDN networking platform that they have been pitching for the last several years. Customers have been told that they will need to find another solutions and sales have already ceased.

        Wow. I can understand dropping product lines if they're not making money, but immediately burning it all without communicating this to customers. HPE, that doesn't look good at all.

          I agree, not a good sign for the health of the new company. Burning bridges with customers, presumably big ones, means that they were desperate and had to make the move rather than just doing it strategically.
