Join the End User Council

Join the EUC - membership is open exclusively and free to storage end users so sign up now by clicking here.

The mission of the End User Council is three-fold:

1. To provide an infrastructure to promote, within computing end-user communities (storage specific or otherwise), open dialogue about the requirements for, and the challenges of, storage networking technology adoption and use.

2. To provide the end-user community a direct voice into the Storage Networking Industry Association to assert their shared storage requirements and goals.

3. To encourage and support an open channel between the storage end-user community and storage networking industry developers. Ultimately, the End User Council provides a means to streamline the process of turning shared storage requirements into solutions, expanding business opportunities for vendors and placing viable products into customers’ hands sooner.
