REMINDER: UNIX SIG, Tues. May 13: RAID Storage

          Software Forum / UniForum UNIX SIG (Sunnyvale CA)   

                        RAID Storage
  

  With UNIX servers so often offering relational databases, the   technology of the RDBMS "engine" is vital, and one level below that,   the technology of the disk storage that contains the database is   equally vital.   

  Bob Mortenson is Senior Product Manager at Mylex Corporation. Mylex,   located in Fremont, is a large OEM in the disk storage and interface   card business. Earlier, Bob worked for MaxStor and Micropolis.   

  Bob will give overview and status of the magnetic and optical   parts of the storage industry, will give a survey of the history and   status of RAID technology, and will discuss new RAID developments and   directions.
