I. Storage Customers’ Issues
The 1990-2000 Experience
Perception of “instant gain” with IT investments
Vast array of technologies promoted
Minimal consideration of risk analysis
Atmosphere of “knee jerk” reactions
“Dot Bomb” created extreme caution

II. Role of Industry Associations
Focus of IT Industry Associations
Customer Benefits: Standards Interoperability Ease of system integration, use and management Best practices for ensuring systems availability
Supplier Benefits: Meeting customer requirements Increased consumption of products Partner integration Internal efficiencies
Hosted by
II. Role of Industry Organizations
Lowers end cost Interoperability Transparency Open, extensible
Examples of key standards bodies to the storage IT consumer:
DMTF IETF ANSI ISO IEEE
The Value of Standards for Storage Architectures:
Hosted by
End users described the storage marketplace as confusing and competitive
End users unanimously viewed industry standards for interoperability as extremely valuable
End users expressed a need for vendor-neutral information on storage technologies
Members see great value in end user education from SNIA (but more is desired)
Members and industry analysts had a favorable view of the SNIA
III. The SNIA’s Contributions
SNIA – Who are We?Field Research - Findings
Hosted by
As a vendor-neutral trade organization, the
SNIA works in conjunction with its members
to make storage networking technologies
understandable, simpler to implement, easier
to manage, and recognized as valued assets
to the business process.

Storage Management Enormous growth in deployed storage
• Median Global 2000 company on-line storage capacity: 40TB at end of 1998
Interoperability Heterogeneous server, storage and infrastructureTotal Cost of Ownership Storage Networks are costly to implement and retain
“How can I manage such a growth and still deliver quality services to my customers?”
