Innovator, Disruptor or Laggard, Where Will Your Storage Applications Live? Next Generation Storage

With the emergence of Cloud Service Providers, new technology innovations, and elevated customer expectations, Enterprise Information Technologists continue to be faced with scalability and cost pressures. Through next-generation efficient, cost-effective scalable architectures, IT is transforming from a Cost-Center Service Provider to a valued Business Partner.

It's imperative that storage developers understand the drivers of this transition, how to leverage the open source community, embrace next generation memory storage and cloud service provider best practices in response to their infrastructure and workloads. In this session, Vice President and General Manager, Bev Crair, will discuss the leadership role Intel(r) is playing in driving the open source community for software defined storage, server based storage and upcoming technologies that will shift how storage is architected.
