Jan. 28, DoM Special Seminar: Breaking Big Toys – Virtualization and Storage for Demanding Research & Academic Environments
Basic and clinical research has seen an explosion of data-hungry technology. From whole genome sequencing, to microarrays, to clinical data capture we are challenged with find places to store and process all of the data generated by modern laboratories.
Join Matt Cowger, a leading international expert on storage virtualization, as he presents a seminar to address the cutting edge of storage and virtualized computing and how academic centers can apply it to enhance research productivity and capability. Formerly of Salesforce.com, Matt is one of 53 people in the world to hold the VMware Certified Design Expert (VCDX) certification, holds the patents on methods for large scale virtual machine deployments (over 8000 VMs deployed per day) and has “broken too many ‘unbreakable’ systems to count”. Currently a Master Virtualization & Storage Engineer for Hewlett-Packard, Matt has lectured at international conferences on virtualization.
