It was a great visit and they expect to be adding a lot of capacity in their Canadian and US data centers over the next year.  In our meetings we discussed issues of storage density and  price \/ performance  ratios and how this will effect their   storage tiering strategy over the next couple of years.  These NetApp users  can&#8217;t cost justify NetApp storage for their archival and tertiary storage needs any more. A big problem in archiving for them is that they have hundreds of volumes on their Filers.  Our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simplstor.com\">SimplStor<\/a>, with its single namespace, would provide them with several advantages and reduce their costs of archival storage dramatically. <\/p>\n<p>Zerowait&#8217;s  SimplStor solution which can put a Petabyte in one rack, with a single namespace, makes a lot of sense for this customer&#8217;s application which needs reliability, high density,  and low acquisition cost.<\/p>\n<p>Looks like 2011 will be another interesting year.<\/p>\n<div class=\"blogger-post-footer\"><img width='1' height='1' src='https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/tracker\/11084229-7294155240811385451?l=zerowait.blogspot.com' alt='' \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the last few days I went to Canada to visit some customers of ours that have data centers around the world which we provide our independent NetApp service and support for.
