Identity, Credential and Access Management is a foundational component of building trust. Building trust starts with determining identity, and, from there, continuing to build trust with authentication and authorization. In the supply chain it also starts with identification, authentication, and authorization. Considering how products come to  market, the ability to securely communicate is based on the same principles. By having control of identity, provisioning, governance, and authorization, ICAM, as a practice, becomes the baseline for zero trust, network micro-segmentation, and data protection. This identity-based approach is already pervasive in our IT world, and will be key to enabling trusted services in the OT world.

Does Hardware Matter in the Cloud?

Event:

Appearance: Intel Tech Field Day Showcase

Company: Intel

Personnel: Alastair Cooke

The narrative that hardware does not matter in the cloud is driven chiefly by the growing importance of software. In this Tech Field Day Showcase, presented to you by Intel, Alastair Cooke, cloud provider course teacher and co-author of Digital Infrastructure at Datacenter Scale zooms into this perception to provide an understanding of what created it in the first place and the truth of it. Asking what’s more important – the hardware or the software – is like the chicken or egg paradox. But the reality is, software that occupies the centerstage needs the hardware to exist. Without hardware, innovation at software level is not possible.


The Perfect Configuration

The fastest processors do not necessarily guarantee the highest performance in a datacenter. In this Tech Field Day Showcase presented to you by Intel, Solutions Architect and co-author of Digital Infrastructure at Datacenter Scale, Ather Beg highlights a section of the whitepaper he wrote – The Perfect Configuration, where he debunks the hype around processors. Ather argues that a processor alone cannot deliver ultimate levels of performance without the support of other components. In fact, the secret to unlocking high levels of performance is getting the configuration right, and the perfect configuration is one in which all the components in the server are equally optimized.

Where Do We Draw the Line Between Storage Infrastructure and Data – Storage Field Day Roundtable

Event: Storage Field Day 24

Company: Tech Field Day

Personnel: Stephen Foskett

Infrastructure is no longer the focus of enterprise IT, with the value of data and applications rising in prominence. Although infrastructure software and services are critical areas of consideration, the individual components that underly these systems are no longer as important. Most compute, memory, storage, and networking components function and perform similarly, so it takes a truly exceptional device to rise above the abstraction of datacenter and cloud platforms. Even when we do talk about IT infrastructure we are often referring to infrastructure as a service (cloud) or infrastructure as code not individual devices.

This roundtable discussion is moderated by Stephen Foskett of Gestalt IT and features commentary by Ray Lucchesi, Enrico Signoretti, Richard Kenyan, Andy Banta, Glenn Dekhayser, Frederic Van Haren, Gina Rosenthal, and Max Mortillaro.


Managing the Blast Radius as System Components Get Bigger – Storage Field Day Roundtable

Event: Storage Field Day 24

Appearance: Storage Field Day 24 Delegate Roundtable

Company: Tech Field Day

Video Links:

Personnel: Stephen Foskett

As every component of IT infrastructure gets bigger, we need to consider the impact of component faults. The so-called blast radius due to a failure has always been a consideration, and was taken into account with RAID, replication, high-availability architecture, and more. Even a small server has over a dozen cores, a terabyte of memory, and many terabytes of storage. We must also consider the inflation of data, adjusting for the size of applications and data sets, when comparing the impact versus historic systems. The reason components have become so large has more to do with economics of production and sale than with customer demands, and the ratio of storage capacity to data throughput has fallen, making the blast radius a real concern.

The conversation is moderated by Stephen Foskett of Gestalt IT and features David Klee, Enrico Signoretti, Glenn Dekhayser, Andy Banta, Ray Lucchesi, Frederic Van Haren, Richard Kenyan, Gina Rosenthal, and Jim Czuprynski.


Expanding the QLC Opportunity with 4th Generation Solidigm QLC SSDs

Personnel: Yuyang Sun

As data sets grow, the need for more efficient and higher capacity storage is imperative. Learn how Solidigm is planning to address higher capacity, higher performance and greater overall efficiency with the current and future QLC SSDs. Presented by Yuyang Sun, Senior Product Marketing Manager for QLC Products at Solidigm, this presentation discusses the evolution and potential of QLC (Quad-Level Cell) storage technology, emphasizing its advantages over traditional TLC (Triple-Level Cell) storage in terms of cost, capacity, and performance.

Sun highlighted the increasing demand for QLC SSDs in data centers, noting that QLC can significantly enhance capacity and provide a cost-effective solution for specific workloads. Solidigm’s QLC SSDs are designed to accommodate data-heavy applications, such as machine learning, with capacities ranging from 3.84 terabytes to a maximum of 61.44 terabytes. The cost-effectiveness of QLC, which stores four bits per cell compared to three bits for TLC, translates into approximately 25% savings in NAND costs, making it an appealing option for customers looking to optimize both performance and expenses.

The presentation also addressed concerns about endurance, clarifying that the drive’s performance should be viewed in the context of modern usage patterns. With most data center SSDs operating at less than one drive write per day (DWPD), QLC’s endurance rating allows it to cater to a wide range of applications without sacrificing reliability. Sun wrapped up by showcasing Solidigm’s fourth-generation QLC portfolio, which showcases significant advancements in performance and efficiency over previous iterations and competitive technologies, reinforcing the company’s commitment to delivering high-capacity, efficient storage solutions for data centers.

Personnel: Roger Corell

Solidigm’s perspective on storage is unique in the enterprise IT industry. The presentation led by Roger Corell, the Director of Datacenter Messaging and Content, delves into how Solidigm was founded following SK Hynix’s acquisition of Intel’s NAND SSD business and highlights the company as a new paradigm in solid-state storage. Corell emphasizes Solidigm’s distinctive technological capabilities, leveraging both floating gate and charge trap NAND technologies, which enables the creation of SSDs that can meet various storage needs. Solidigm combines decades of expertise with deep technical partnerships to develop optimized storage solutions that prioritize quality and reliability.

Corell outlines several pressing storage challenges that enterprise data centers face today. Aging infrastructure remains a significant concern, with a staggering 85-90% of data center storage still dependent on HDD technologies. This presents scaling challenges, especially in light of increasing demands for faster data access driven by richer services and high-performance computing applications. The proliferation of data-rich services and the rapid growth of data will require enterprises to rethink their storage strategies, particularly how to manage the aging hardware and deficiencies in capacity. With projections estimating global data growth to reach 175 zettabytes by the end of the decade, the need for more efficient and effective storage solutions becomes imperative.

To address these challenges, Solidigm advocates for the adoption of QLC SSDs, emphasizing their ability to provide rapid access to larger data sets more efficiently. Corell discusses the various advantages of QLC technology, including cost benefits from reduced space needs and lower operational expenses. The presentation also touches on sustainability, highlighting that QLC drives generate significantly fewer carbon emissions during production and require less cooling and power in use. By transitioning to QLC SSDs, enterprises can consolidate their storage footprints and improve overall efficiency, illustrating Solidigm’s commitment to addressing today’s storage challenges while paving the way for a more sustainable data center future.
