K.C. Choi Leaves Hewlett Packard Enterprise

Veteran Hewlett Packard technologist K.C. Choi has left the company, a person close to Hewlett Packard Enterprise said. His departure could complicate CEO Meg Whitman’s hopes of promoting a new computing architecture that is central to the revival of the company formed in the break-up of H-P last year.

UPDATE: Mr. Choi has joined storage vendor EMC in an as-yet unannounced executive role, a person close to EMC said. EMC is in the process of being acquired by Dell for $63.5 billion, and EMC shareholders approved the deal last week.
