Upcoming Events

Join the global community driving the future of DNA-based data storage and computing and connect with scientists, researchers and innovators like you who are shaping the next generation of deep technologies.

Tech Field Day is an invite-only technical meeting between delegates from around the world and sponsoring enterprise IT companies that share their products and ideas through presentations, demos, roundtables, and more. 

In today’s evolving IT landscape, selecting the right storage architecture is critical for optimal performance, scalability, data governance, and cost-efficiency. Furthermore, AI workloads have uniquely influenced how we meet these demands from our storage infrastructure. This webinar provides a technical deep dive into three fundamental storage deployment models – on-premises, cloud, and hybrid – examining their architectures and operational trade-offs through the lens of two key concepts: indirection (accessing data through mapping layers that provide flexibility and abstraction) and redirection (rerouting data requests to enable failover, load balancing, and optimized performance).

The SNIA Cloud Object Storage Plugfest Program provides a unique opportunity for developers, architects, and leaders to collaborate on industry best practices, expand their expert peer technical network, and enhance interoperability testing via exposure to a wide array of cloud object storage solutions.

This developer-driven program helps mature greater cloud object storage consistency, leading toward the goal of any-to-any interoperability across the ecosystem. If your organization develops software that utilizes or implements S3 or other cloud storage APIs, you don’t want to miss out

Ceph is synonymous with block, file, and object storage at petabyte to exabyte scale, powering high performance computing, AI/ML workloads, and enterprise IT environments. As generative AI workloads accelerate, these users increasingly need more than traditional storage—they need native support for embedding data and nearest neighbor search to enable retrieval augmented generation at scale.

Today, this capability is often delivered through standalone vector databases, introducing new infrastructure, unfamiliar interfaces, and significant operational overhead. Operations teams and developers alike face the cost and complexity of deploying, securing, and maintaining yet another system alongside their existing storage platforms.

Ceph’s journey toward nearest neighbor search aims to change that. Ongoing research into vector storage formats, libraries, and databases is bringing semantic search closer to where enterprise data already lives. By exposing vector search capabilities through S3 Vectors, Ceph enables AI practitioners to use familiar cloud native tools, SDKs, and workflows, without introducing a separate vector database.

In this webinar, we will explore how LanceDB libraries power a vector search implementation in Ceph, delivered through S3 Vectors API actions. Attendees will see how Ceph can provide out of the box, billion scale, multi tenant nearest neighbor search that meets the needs of most RAG workloads while preserving the unified, software defined storage model enterprises already trust.

As power densities continue to rise in servers, thermal management is becoming a critical challenge. Traditional air cooling is increasingly strained in high-density environments, driving interest in more efficient approaches. These more efficient approaches touch all aspects of the server including the SSD. 

In this webinar, Anthony Constantine and Scott Shadley examine the role of liquid cooling in modern SSD deployments. The session will cover key liquid cooling methods, their advantages in heat transfer and performance, and the emerging specification changes shaping the industry.

Join us to better understand how liquid cooling is shaping the future of SSDs and what it means for your storage infrastructure.

FMS: the Future of Memory and Storage is an all-inclusive international memory and storage showcase. It is the event for the memory and storage industry. As a leading independent global conference and exhibition, FMS is now in its 20th year, offering enhanced support to the industry.

AI Infra Summit is the ultimate stage for AI infrastructure players, and hosts a unique blend of systems and AI market intelligence.

Join the SNIA STA community for a hands-on Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) STA Storage Plugfest, co-located with the SNIA Developer Conference (SDC). This collaborative interoperability event brings together industry leaders to test, validate, and improve SAS implementations in a secure, vendor-neutral environment.

The SNIA SMB3 Interoperability (IO) Lab will start on September 27 for set up, and take place September 28-October 1, 2026, in conjunction with SNIA's SDC at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Santa Clara, CA. The purpose of the IO Lab is for vendors to bring their implementations of SMB3 to test, identify, and fix bugs in a collaborative setting with the goal of providing a forum in which companies can develop interoperable products.

 SDC is a premier educational conference dedicated to providing vendor-neutral information on advancements in data technology. Delve into a dynamic environment featuring curated tutorials, insightful sessions, and keynote speakers selected by industry experts.

Whether you're a software engineer, product manager, or CTO, SDC caters to professionals across all disciplines. Join us at SDC to embrace the evolving landscape of technology and expand your expertise.
