Sun’s HPC Watercooler points to the latest bit of analysis by Henry Newman pointing to his call for three storage technologies that will be “truly disruptive to the enterprise storage market.” Highlights:
Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) is my number one pick for a technology that could change enterprise storage in dramatic ways.
…I have been writing about object-based storage for several years now (see Let’s Bid Adieu to Block Devices and SCSI), and I am a big proponent of T10 OSD, given the problems I see regularly with fragmentation.
…I am a big proponent of [pNFS], and it has some broad implications (see The Future of NFS Arrives and NFS Enters a Parallel Universe).
Henry’s original article is here.
