An Executable Big Data Storage Strategy

Wednesday, October 01, 2014 | 10:10AM–11:00AM | Meeting Room W307C/D
Session Type: Professional Development

We will present the outcome of Lehigh University's strategic storage planning effort, which motivated disparate members of our merged technology and library organization to devise and execute a plan to respond to the exponential growth in campus demand for data storage.


OUTCOMES: Learn how to plan for a tangible change in operational and service culture by framing storage services in the context of other services * Learn how to reduce expenses by sharing internal resources and know-how in order to build bridges and reduce the TCO of storage solutions * Learn how to prioritize storage practices, attract campus partners to set parameters on storage service, and shift service culture to a more strategic approach
