The Wikibon Data Storage Portal contains data storage industry research, articles, expert opinion, case studies, and data storage company profiles.
WikitipEMC customers should expect to integrate the piece parts themselvesDespite excellent announcements in SMB and SaaS, customers should not expect EMC to provide true 'out of the box' storage infrastructure, across the board, anytime soon. Rather customers should expect to build integrated storage capabilities from multiple piece parts, many from EMC's acquisitions in document management, virtualization, security, etc. In the near-to-mid-term, EMC customers will continue to bear the costs of maintaining excellent skills in storage planning, design, integration and administration. |
Featured Case StudyVirtualization Energizes Cal State UniversityJohn Charles is the CIO of California State University, East Bay (CSUEB) and Rich Avila is Director, Server & Network Operations. In late 2007 they were both looking down the barrel of a gun. The total amount of power being used in the data center was 67KVA. The maximum power from the current plant was 75kVA. PG&E had informed them that no more power could be delivered. They would be out of power in less than six months. A new data center was planned, but would not be available for two years. |

Featured How-To Note |
Storage Virtualization Design and DeploymentA main impediment to storage virtualization is the lack of multiple storage vendor (heterogeneous) support within available virtualization technologies. This inhibits deployment across a data center. The only practical approach is either to implement a single vendor solution across the whole of the data center (practical only for small and some medium size data centers) or to implement virtualization in one or more of the largest storage pools within a data center. |
