Abstract: Storage Technology Trends for Archiving

Today's archives continue to face rapid data growth with tight budgets. How
do the various storage technologies compare today, and what does the future
look like? What technologies should you be considering in your archive
planning? Dr. Robert Raymond will talk about tiered storage and then review
technology trends and future projections for each, including flash, disk,
tape, etc. Dr. Raymond will cover the technology risks and challenges for
each as part of the discussion. Tom Wultich will cover the economics of tape
in particular, including history and trends, as well as future projections.
He will show the results of the model for future pricing, which you can use
to estimate your future archive costs. Tom and Bob will also be available to
answer questions about the Linear Tape File System, tiered storage, data
integrity, and more.
