NLUUG Filesystems & Storage (May 7th)

[Yaakov Nemoy]

290 Euros for non members is highway robbery. And considering how
close that location is to the 'snelweg', that's not far from the
truth.

> Every bit counts. From a single byte to billions of images, from one
> line of text to a gigantic tangled semantic web of documents, from clay
> tablets to 3D holographic memory, storage and the means to organize
> storage have always been important to humanity. Never underestimate the
> bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes, it was said; a sailboat
> crossing the Atlantic still manages rates of a little over 1GB/s
> end-to-end.

> A petabyte of storage weighs about as much as a small car, but a large
> physics experiment can fill that up in less than a week. The modern rate
> of data production and amount of data storage --and crucially also data
> search and retrieval-- have pushed the limits of computer storage and
> the traditional file system further and further back.
>
> The NLUUG Spring Conference 2009 focuses on storage and the means to
> organise it: file systems, physical storage, connections and search.
>
> The keynote speaker at the conference will be Ted Ts'o, author of the
> ext4 file system in Linux and CTO of the Linux Foundation. Other
> subjects at the conference are DRBD, desktop search and ZFS.
>
> The conference is in conference center 'De Reehorst' in Ede, The
> Netherlands. Information about the full programme and registration can
> be found at the conference website:

> As always members of NLUUG and sister organisations as well as students
> get a hefty discount.
