Register Now!
Information storage has become the principal, "main street" factor in all data processing systems from large IT applications to smaller consumer based uses. The technology that supports storage must meet the cost, capacity, power, reliability and performance requirements of each application. IDEMA’s DISKCON USA 2007 will address this technology in its present as well as projected future forms, and call on industry experts to define how these principal technologies can be applied for optimum results. Subjects for discussion will be magnetic hard disk drives, flash memories, hybrid designs, and additional emerging technologies which may reside in the laboratories today, but could have a future impact on storage. In addition, business leaders and executives will present their views on the status of the storage industry and what directions are possible for the future. Consider this a conference addressing a storage roadmap for all applications – a must to attend.
The DISKCON Trade Show features more than 65 of today’s largest and most prominent storage technology companies. These organizations will be showcasing their latest products and technology innovations--in many cases DISKCON attendees are the first to get a "sneak peek" at what's new or on the horizon.
