Sponsored Post: Calling All Grid Engine Users – Complete the Survey to be Entered to Win an iPad!

 

Univa is taking a survey of the motivation for Grid Engine’s use in technical computing. Non-company related results will be shared with those who participate.

For Grid Engine users specifically, the questionnaire should take about 5 minutes to complete. That’s about the same time as a cup of coffee, so for those who identify themselves properly we will send you a $5 e-Gift card for use at Starbucks, or you may select another option.

Sponsored Post: Whitepaper – The New Reliability Requirements: Tape Libraries

What is Reliability?

Very often in the tape storage market, the word “reliability” appears, yet it is difficult to find a comprehensive definition of reliability. In some cases, it means redundant hardware: in others, read‐ after‐write technology. While reliability is an important factor in tape library technology, if a company regards reliability across a limited spectrum, its reliability features will reflect the relative narrowness of this viewpoint. Spectra Logic assesses reliability from the moment data leaves the backup framework to 30 years after its creation, and so offers the widest range of reliability features available in both middle and enterprise markets. By breaking down the reliability process step by step, administrators can examine features that are important to all aspects of high reliability.

Sponsored Post: BlueArc and Personal Genomics at Bio-IT World

The Bio-IT World Conference kicks off in Boston next week with a series of sessions that herald the coming of Personal Genomics.

“There is extraordinary excitement and interest in the field of personal or consumer genomics at the moment,” commented Bio-IT World’s Kevin Davies. “We are in the first throes of a revolution in medicine and healthcare thanks to the collapsing costs of gene analysis and the dramatic success of late in mapping DNA variants that predispose to common disease.”

As the only major event that focuses on the integration of technology for research, drug discovery and clinical trials, Bio-IT World is more than just another tech conference. The IT challenges presented by Personal Genomics and other next-gen applications are staggering in terms of analysis, data processing, and storage. In this space, legacy IT architectures are simply unable to deliver predictable application performance as new instruments come online.

That’s where BlueArc comes in: our unique, hardware-accelerated storage architecture not only allows you to scale in terms of capacity, it adapts to changing data structure environments on the fly. We like to think of it as Intelligent Scale, the kind of leading-edge architecture that can help your enterprise succeed, not only now but in the future that promises rapid change like in no other industry.

Check us out. As a Platinum Sponsor of the Bio-IT World Conference in Boston, BlueArc will be showcasing our unique storage technologies at Booth #326 on April 12-14, 2011.
