Abstract:
The storage industry is the fastest growing segment of the IT market at 7% compared to the industry average of 4%. The growth potential has lead many companies both large and small to enter this $50B+ market.  The larger companies work to provide a variety of offerings and differentiate themselves from one another. Smaller companies are entering the market with numerous point and appliance oriented products.

Understanding the dynamics of this business & engineering world can help both professors and students relate their research, teaching, & career efforts to the storage and information management worlds. This talk will discuss technological, business, and political trends impacting this industry and relate them to the academic environment.
