Cloud Storage: A Cheap, Fast, Standardized Utility

Register for this session ▸ Here

The second generation of cloud storage is cheap, fast, and standards-based.  It's becoming simply a utility, much like electricity or bandwidth.  There are already commercial super-fast cloud storage offerings that are 80% cheaper than first generation cloud storage like Amazon S3.  We will look at the rapidly changing economics of cloud storage vs. on-premises storage and LTO tape. We'll look at the new technologies that are driving down price and increasing speeds.
