Title:  Storage Marketecture: What is Really New in Storage and Where is it All Going?
Description:  Jacob Farmer of Cambridge Computer discusses data storage technology and storage trends.
What:  May 2017 BayLISA Meetup
When:  Recorded on 2017-05-18
Where:  LinkedIn corporate offices, Sunnyvale, CA

Abstract:

There is always something new in data storage. . . or is there? Is software defined storage new?  Is hyper-convergence anything more than virtualizing the array controller? Object stores aren’t new. They have been around forever. Even erasure codes date back to the 1960s.   This session is a crash course in the new stuff that is actually changing   the data storage landscape. We trace the evolution of modern storage systems from lowly hard drives and file systems to modern cloud-scale distributed storage architectures.  We answer the questions what is really new, how does the evolution of hardware influence best practices in storage, and how is any of this going to get the job done faster, easier, or more economically?

Topics covered include:  NVMe, NVMf, Hyper-convergence, Software Defined,  RoCE, RONNIE, SMR, Object Stores.
