VisionCloud Webinar on 'Storage Clouds: Limitations, Challenges and Enablers'

Generated data is growing faster than the ability of humanity to store it.
In parallel with the explosion of digital data, our society has become critically dependent on services to extract valuable information from the data and drive decision making by individuals, businesses and government, across all aspects of life.

The webinar will give a short introduction to storage cloud systems, an emerging technology to deal with this explosion of data. The webinar will continue with a description of the VISION Cloud project, whose goal is to develop a powerful infrastructure for the reliable and effective delivery of data-intensive storage services, while facilitating the convergence of IT, media and telecommunications. Moreover the main concepts and innovations at the foundation of the VISION Cloud architecture, demonstrated through examples taken from the domains of telecommunications, media, healthcare and enterprise software will be presented.
