VCE (abbreviation for "Virtual Computing Environment") was a division of EMC Corporation that manufactures converged infrastructure appliances for enterprise environments. Founded in 2009 under the name Acadia, it was originally a joint venture between EMC and Cisco Systems, with additional investments by Intel and EMC subsidiary VMware. EMC acquired a 90% controlling stake in VCE from Cisco in October 2014, giving it majority ownership. At the beginning of 2016, VCE was fully integrated into EMC and became the Converged Platform Division of EMC.
