Abstract
Addison Snell of Intersect360 Research will present an overview of how Big Data trends have changed some fundamental drivers in acquiring, architecting, and administering enterprise storage. With the majority of Big Data implementations coming from in-house development — Hadoop is just the tip of the iceberg — storage developers will find themselves taking on new roles that are defined by performance and scalability as much as reliability and uptime. Learn why high performance computing technologies like parallel file systems and InfiniBand could cross the Rubicon into enterprise, while an IT darling like Cloud might not play.
