LIVE WEBCAST: 10GbE – Key Trends, Drivers and Predictions

Jason Blosil, Gary Gumanow, David Fair, SNIA-ESF
Is 2012 the year for 10GbE adoption? Join this live Webcast to hear the technical and economic justifications that will likely make 2012 the “breakout year” for 10GbE. From virtualization and network convergence, to the general availability of LAN on Motherboard (LOM) and 10GBASE-T cabling, SNIA experts will examine the disruptive technologies driving this protocol forward as well as the significant economic benefits that early adopters have seen.

  • Achieving Cloud Storage Interoperability to Benefit Enterprise Storage Clouds Jun 13 2013 6:00 pm UTC 45 mins
    Enterprise Storage moving toward the cloud requires an interoperable interface foundation to avoid vendor lock-in and provide choice. This tutorial will provide an overview of the features of a Enterprise cloud storage standard and explain how interoperability between clouds is achieved.

    What should you be requiring from your cloud vendors?
    How can you expect standards to roll out in implementations?

    Learning Objectives
    How this cloud storage standard can achieve interoperability and what this interoperability means to you.
    How you can use the cloud storage standard both internally for private clouds as well as for public clouds.
  • Realities of Solid State Storage Jun 6 2013 12:00 am UTC 75 mins
    Solid State storage promises to transform the capabilities and economics of the "performance" segment of enterprise storage, and a myriad of different vendor implementations of solid state have arrived on the scene.
    Early implementations simply replace some HDDs in enterprise arrays with SSDs, but is one-for-one replacement of disks really the most effective way to utilize SSDs? New approaches for accelerating array performance with Solid State have arrived, ranging from SSD caching, SSD tiering, and/or creating entire Volumes/LUNs from Solid State. This tutorial will compare the performance, reliability, endurance, and cost properties of different SSD approaches, illustrate the impact of SSD properties on typical enterprise I/O workloads, and give users a roadmap for how to think about Solid State influencing their future storage architecture.
  • Interoperable Cloud Storage with the CDMI Standard Jun 4 2013 3:00 pm UTC 75 mins
    The Cloud Data Management Interface (CDMI) is an industry standard on its way to ISO ratification. There is now an open source reference implementation available from SNIA as well. Storage vendors and Cloud providers have started announcing their implementations of the CDMI standard, demonstrating the reality of interoperable cloud storage. This talk will help you understand how to keep from getting locked into any given vendor by using the standard. Real world examples will help you understand how to apply this to your own situation.
    •Walk away with an understanding of the specific CDMI features, such as a standard cloud interchange format, that enable interoperable cloud storage.
    •Gain a deeper understanding of the outstanding issues of cloud storage interoperability and how the standard helps ease this pain.
    •Now that the standard is being implemented, understand what to put in an RFP for cloud storage that prevents vendor lock-in.

  • How Many IOPS Is Enough? Recorded: May 15 2013 62 mins
    There are lots of SSDs on the market today offering IOPS (I/Os Per Second) performance in the thousands to hundreds of thousands, with indications that future models will offer speeds in the million-IOPS range. Meanwhile HDDs support from tens to hundreds of IOPS, depending on spindle speed and interface. Not every application can use the extreme performance of high-end SSDs, and some may not benefit from high IOPS at all. Since performance is tied to cost, users can save money if they understand how many IOPS the system really needs. This webinar will draw from the recent study by Coughlin Associates and Objective Analysis that examined what makes an application require high IOPS and which profiled applications according to their needs.
  • Deploying Public, Private, and Hybrid Storage Clouds Recorded: May 7 2013 60 mins
    Everyone has heard talk of cloud but do you know how to deploy one? This session will be a technical dive into implementations of popular public, private, and hybrid storage cloud use cases and best practices examples of how they can fit into your existing IT operations. SNIA's Cloud Storage Initiative (CSI) has created the Cloud Data Management Interface (CDMI) as a de jure standard which can assist you in your cloud deployments utilizing both traditional file systems and new cloud file system formats. This presentation will dive into the details of designing and deploying public, private, and hybrid storage clouds including how CDMI can assist with cloud federation, peering, differentiation, and how CDMI can interact with external systems for event management, configuration management, workflows, auditing, billing, and authorization.

  • The Business Case for Cloud Recorded: Apr 9 2013 53 mins
    The fast emerging cloud services business arena is creating numerous new opportunities for both IT users and IT players beyond the traditional Enterprise IT ecosystem. In response, SNIA's Cloud Storage Initiative (CSI) has created the Cloud Data Management Interface (CDMI). Designed to enable interoperable cloud storage and data management, the CDMI specification is addressing a total cloud storage solution helping users avoid the chaos of proprietary advances and partial solution APIs that would erode the integrity of the cloud model. This presentation will cover popular use cases for cloud including storage clouds and enterprise or application specific clouds. Multi-tenancy, private, and hybrid clouds are of interest to IT professionals, and this tutorial explores various cloud options and scenarios, along with options and recommendations for building your business case.
