Now in its fourth year and again expected to draw more than 250 developers and engineers participating in over 50 sessions in multiple tracks, the Storage Developer Conference (SDC) is the only event created by the storage industry for the storage industry.

SDC provides the information and know-how to further advance solutions with features that shorten time to market for a developed solution, increase acceptability and interoperability in production environments, and help participants understand where storage technologies are heading. In addition, plans are being finalized for a CIFS/SMB/SMB2 plugfest.
