Managing Big Data w/Proven Technology

Today, for #tbt, we present an oldie, but a goodie from our YouTube archives.

This video and accompanying whitepaper explores how enterprises and companies not used to “crunching” data can get up to speed and take advantage of all big data has to offer.  The sheer availability of massive amounts of big data is forcing enterprises and companies to look at data differently, but there is one significant problem.  Storage technology is not keeping up with how fast the data is growing.  Companies don’t have the technology to store or analyze it currently.

RAID, Inc. Uses Proven HPC and Supercomputing Technology to Solve Big Data Challenges

In the paper accompanying this video RAID, Inc looks at exploring the problem without getting into “too experimental technologies”. The answer lies in using technologies from HPC and supercomputing technologies developed over the past 10-20 years that are proven and reliable, and applying that same technology to new business, enterprise and wireless situations.  This whitepaper speaks more about parallel file system solutions and accompanying storage architectures that go along with that solution.  The paper outlines exactly how HPC clusters can benefit from parallel file systems and the differences in storage architecture between Lustre and GPFS.
