| Abstract |
|
| This session
is a hybrid of two classes, Eliminating
Backup System Bottlenecks and Next
Generation Storage Networking. We have abridged the content so
as to fit all of the material into a reasonable time window. |
|
| Topics
taken from Next Generation Storage Networking include: |
|
- Virtualization and the storage I/O path
- Inband vs. out-of-band virtualization
- Spindle virtualization
- Volume virtualization
- File system virtualization
- In-band network file system appliances
|
|
| Topics
taken from Eliminating Backup System Bottlenecks include: |
|
- Overview of backup system bottlenecks
- Conventional disk backup
- Virtual tape libraries: advantages and disadvantages
- De-duplication, commonality factoring, and single instance storage
- Block-level incremental backups
- Bare Metal Recovery
|
|
| Intended
Audience |
|
| System
administrators involved in the design and management of backup systems
and storage solutions, and policymakers responsible for protecting
their organization's data or defining an overall storage strategy.
A general familiarity with server and storage hardware is assumed.
The event focuses on architectures and core technologies, and is relevant
regardless of an attendee's backup hardware, software, storage strategy,
or specific IT environment. |
