Data has become the key resource in the digital economy. The popularity of enterprise digital transformation, cloud, big data, 5G, and artificial intelligence (AI) promote the rapid development of applications such as core transactions, virtualization, high-performance computing, AI, and AR/VR, which in turn demand larger, faster, and more intelligent storage.
IEEE Bangalore Section is organizing Data & Storage Symposium on 1st December 2021, an Industry flagship event connecting technology leaders across various segments of the data management and storage world.
This one-day Symposium will bring together technology leaders, innovators, entrepreneurs & thought provokers who are passionate about addressing impactful problems by turning ideas into solutions. Industry stalwarts and technology practitioners, together will share their vision on future technologies and how they will impact our way of working and living. Due to the pandemic situation, this event is organized virtually and we are very excited that it can bring participants from all over the world. Targeted audiences are from Corporate, Academia and Industry.
Theme 1 – Storage and BigData Analytics Unlock the power of BigData with new-age Data Storage Architecture. Storage optimized for processing big data with near data processing, function offloading and pushdown
Theme 2 – Data-Centric, Computational Storage Computational Architecture with function in hardware, Smart NIC and DPUs for extreme low latency data access for HPC and HPDA
Theme 3 – Exa-scale Storage Achieving performance and cost objectives with Data Lakehouse, global namespace
Theme 4 – Containerized and Composable Storage Efficiencies with virtualized and containerized deployment of storage, dis-aggregated, composable storage architecture
