A Guide to Automotive Data Storage – Future Trends, Use Cases and Features

Whether you’re working at a traditional on-prem data center, a co-lo or XSP, we all know data storage growth is explosive … but your costs needn’t be. For those of us that spend our lives around data center storage (however sad that might sound)! we know there are some things that can’t be ignored:
• Power and cooling costs 
• Errors from drives causing replacement
• Long-term reliability
Join us as we discuss how Western Digital takes an innovative approach to reducing hidden costs of bulk storage.

Cutting the Hidden Costs of Data Center Storage Arrays

This webinar illustrates the new design options and benefits that the use of NVMe over Fabrics can provide when deployed with high performance parallel filesystems.  It will show a new system architecture which maintains or increases deployment resiliency while potentially decreasing server requirements which reduces total cost of ownership.  The presentation concludes with the review of a 9-node Lustre cluster proof of concept design and the results attained therein.

Improving Parallel File System Performance & Reliability with NVMe-oF™ Storage

All Flash Arrays have been use for many years now and have provided significant speed up of application performance along with the flexibility of disaggregated storage.  Recent performance advances in NVMe SSDs have created yet another performance gap between Direct Attached Storage in servers and traditional Fibre Channel and SAS attached All Flash Arrays.  NVMe-oF closes this gap by enabling the newest NVMe SSDs to be fabric attached to multiple servers.  Get the bandwidth and low latency of NVMe plus the scalability of disaggregated storage.  This webinar will walk you through the performance advantages of NVMe-oF and demonstrate the simplicity of Western Digital’s ethernet attached flash array, OpenFlex Data24.

Outperform SAS AFAs Using  NVMe-oF

The Low-down on Low-cost Storage: Balancing Affordability and Accessibility

Hyper-Converged solutions deliver the value of composing hardware into variable sized virtual servers, but are limited to the hardware resources available from the vendor who sells the chassis. Open Composable Disaggregated infrastructure (CDI) is the latest innovation that provides the value of disaggregating compute, storage, and even memory resources plus the benefit of enabling multiple vendors to compete for your business. Learn how Open CDI can benefit your organization, and the products from Western Digital that make it possible.

How Open CDI Can Benefit Your Organization

Managing large data sets is challenging whether it’s terrestrial climate change data, business intelligence or information from IOT devices. It is becoming increasingly critical to be able to effectively plan the infrastructure for the data repositories that can help us unlock the secrets and insights ourdata can provide.Join us as we discuss new developments in large-scale storage to sort out some of the key requirements and building blocks for big data.
What you’ll learn:
•How physical data transport can be faster and more secure than over-the-wire
•Why organizations are deploying cost-effective large-scale storage systems
•How NVMe-over-Fabrics can improve performance in large data sets

Innovations in Storing and Managing Live Data Sets

In the digital age, data does more than just drive the business forward – for many organization data is the business.  Data storage architectures must provide a number of key capabilities to match the importance of data.  Resilient architectures which can minimize the impact of system and component level failures will be needed.  Data storage must also have composability to adapt to the rapidly changing performance needs of workloads.  The lifecycle management of these systems must also be improved to allow rapid deployments, capacity additions, while reducing the day-to-day management burden for infrastructure professionals, while reducing operational costs.  

Please join OSNEXUS, Western Digital and 451 Research’s Henry Baltazar, Research Director, Storage on June 10th, 2021 for a webinar in which we will be discussing the future requirements for data storage.
