This is a three day technical event that you can get a $200 discount on using the code below. Jump directly to the details on SNIA's website at http://snia.org/events/dsicon2014/agenda2014 or read on for more details and the discount code. Robert Novak BayLISA President o/_____________________________________________ There is a conference taking place in Santa Clara on April 22-24 called the Data Storage Innovation Conference (DSI) that is owned and produced by an industry association - SNIA, *www.snia.org * . The agenda appears to offer a substantially rich learning experience that is designed for systems administrators, technical managers, systems engineers, and implementers from both the enterprise customer and vendor communities. We have negotiated for the members of the BayLISA to *receive a special rate of $495 (versus list $695) for a pass to DSI which entitles you to all sessions, meals, refreshments, and receptions for any or all THREE days of the conference. *If you would like to take advantage of this offer, click here and use code BayLISA100 to receive the discount. *About DSI* DSI will feature end-user case studies, presentations from storage-focused analysts and technologists, technical updates and roadmaps from industry associations like FCIA (Fibre Channel), STA (SCSI), and LTO Consortium (LTO Tape), and product presentations from vendors (both well-known and startups). The most highly-rated sessions are usually the vendor-neutral SNIA Tutorials , authored by industry experts, peer-reviewed by SNIA members, and presented by award-winning speakers on behalf of SNIA (and not their employers). In short, DSI is an event focused on data storage innovation: hardware, software, technologies, features, products, and innovative use cases that will benefit attendees in their daily work, and in developing the strategies to deal with the challenges faced by their organization. Take a look at the DSI Agenda , and I'm sure that you will find multiple sessions that will interest you, by speakers carefully selected to avoid vendor 'product-pitches'.
