Research in Focus: Project Silica: Storage Solutions for the Zettabyte Era

What does cloud storage of the future look like? When you build storage at the cloud-scale this creates new opportunities as well as new challenges. In this session, we aim to have a panel that focuses on discussing innovations at multiple levels of the storage stack. From basic questions, like what is the media of the future? Is it glass and/or DNA? How do we push the more performance at lower cost from storage? What does tiering look like in the cloud-era? This and many related questions we are going to ask leaders in the field to share their visions, views, and insights.
