We could not do the work of the SNIA without our passionate and dedicated volunteers. We are pleased to recognize the following honorees in three unique categories. The first set of honors represents those voted on SNIA members via an anonymous survey tool. The second is an award granted by the SNIA's Technical Council. And finally, the Storage Management Initiative (SMI) recognized volunteers working to forward and strengthen its mission.
