The War and Treaty’s Michael and Tanya Trotter grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, and Washington, DC, respectively, but both have family roots in the South. They also grew up in the musical traditions of their churches – Tanya in the Black Baptist Church and Michael in the Seventh Day Adventist Church – where they learned the power of song to move people. After becoming a father at a very young age, Michael eventually joined the armed forces and served in Iraq and Germany, where he took up songwriting as a way of dealing with his experiences there. Meanwhile Tanya embarked on a singing and acting career after a breakthrough appearance in Sister Act 2 alongside Whoopi Goldberg and Lauryn Hill. Now, after a long and sometimes traumatic journey, Michael and Tanya are married, touring, winning all sorts of awards, and set to release their fifth album together, and their fourth as The War and Treaty. Sid talks to Michael and Tanya about the new record, Plus One , as well as their collaboration with Miranda Lambert, what it was like to record at FAME studios in Muscle Shoals, and how they’re blending country, soul, gospel, and R&B.

Storage Unpacked 266 – Architectural Choices in Storage System Design 37:13

منذ 9 أيام37:13

37:13

In this episode, Chris discusses the options available to storage system vendors when building modern storage appliances, with Bill Basinas, Senior Director, Product Marketing at Infinidat. The conversation derives from an observation on architectural choices, following the move to AMD processors from Intel for the latest G4 systems built by Infinidat. AMD offers a greater core count per processor compared to Intel, allowing Infinidat to move to single socket designs, while gaining improvements from PCIe 5.0 and DDR5 memory. Ultimately, this discussion highlights how modern storage system design can take standardised components and build flexible architectures, implementing most features in software. For Infinidat, that could mean expanding its range of solutions for smaller enterprise requirements, or building out products specifically for Edge use cases. Although Bill did not reveal any future plans, the implication is clear – watch this space for future evolution of the InfiniBox architecture to a wider and more varied set of hardwaree configurations. Elapsed Time: 00:37:13 Timeline 00:00:00 – Intros 00:01:15 – How do vendors choose the hardware components for storage systems? 00:02:30 – What are the main (storage) technology challenges for customers? 00:04:08 – Customers want predictable data features 00:05:55 – Capacity demand continues to grow relentlessly 00:07:30 – Infinidat features are built into software 00:09:35 – Most AI requirements wil run on existing performance storage 00:11:20 – Modern hardware provides significant flexibility for system design 00:15:00 – AMD gives access to single and high core-count processors 00:16:10 – PCIe 5.0 provides for faster SSDs and power efficiency 00:18:46 – Infinidat has introduced smaller form-factor solutions 00:21:32 – Multiple cores will always get used! 00:25:53 – Infinidat G4 architecture provides for in-place controller upgrades 00:28:22 – Storage arrays should become more “virtual” 00:34:10 – Data services implementations are very different between vendors 00:35:55 – Hybrid architecture still has value in the Infinidat world 00:36:20 – Wrap Up Related Podcasts & Blogs Storage Unpacked 258 – Introducing Infinidat G4, InfuzeOS 8 and InfiniSafe ACP #202 – Enterprise Storage Consolidation with Phil Bullinger from Infinidat Infinidat adds customer value with SSA Express and improved SSA capacity Copyright (c) 2016-2025 Unpacked Network.

Storage Unpacked 265 – The Enduring Benefits of Centralised Storage 35:34

منذ 7 weeks35:34

35:34

In this episode, Chris discusses the enduring benefits of centralised storage, particularly with reference to storage virtualisation, with Dan Kogan, VP of Enterprise Growth and Solutions and Cody Hosterman, Senior Director of Product Management, both from Pure Storage. Centralised or shared storage has been around for over 30 years, providing efficiencies in infrastructure and operational management. In the virtualisation context, centralisation provides the ability to abstract workloads from the hypervisor and add flexibility and data management features to a centrally managed platform. Vendors, such as Pure Storage, have invested resources in making centralised storage efficient, while also providing significant security benefits that couldn’t be achieved with an HCI model. Although this discussion was intended to focus on centralisation, the ultimate conclusion of the conversation is to realise that centralised storage is a precursor to storage-as-a-service. This is where the industry is headed, whether using on-premises or public cloud infrastructure. Elapsed Time: 00:35:34 Timeline 00:00:00 – Intros 00:01:17 – Shared or Centralised Storage has become a perpetual feature of the data centre 00:02:00 – Where did centralised storage come from? 00:03:03 – VMware introduced compute efficiencies, centralised storage does the same 00:05:20 – Centralised storage now incorporates block, file and object protocols 00:07:10 – HCI was probably the biggest “challenge” to centralised storage 00:13:04 – Centralisation is bringing additional consolidation benefits 00:15:55 – Centralisation provides significant operational benefits 00:17:36 – Integrated storage (HCI) is inherently insecure compared to centralised storage 00:22:31 – Data mobility is a key requirement of modern enterprises 00:29:11 – Centralised storage is driving us towards storage-as-a-service. 00:31:10 – Storage is becoming an “endpoint” 00:32:31 – Wrap Up Related Podcasts & Blogs Analysis: Storage vendors assist in the optimisation of VMware workloads Copyright (c) 2016-2024 Unpacked Network.

Storage Unpacked 259 – Sustainable Storage in the World of AI with Shawn Rosemarin (Sponsored) 52:08

منذ 40 weeks52:08

52:08

In this episode, Chris discusses the topic of building sustainable storage solutions with Shawn Rosemarin , Global VP of Customer Engineering at Pure Storage. AI and specifically Generative AI (GenAI) has become a hot topic over the past 12 months. Businesses are looking at projects to use AI internally for productivity gains, but also to drive additional business. However, AI is still relatively expensive and requires huge volumes of training data. Training is an ongoing process that must react to changes in the data landscape, such as rights and permissions, and government regulation. With AI hardware being so expensive, it’s important to get the storage piece right, and that means having a scalable and cost effective solution. Shawn details how Pure Storage has focused on two aspects. First, the hardware, where DFMs (direct flash modules) have reached 75TB, with commitments to deliver 150TB and 300TB drives in the next few years. Second, the software management capability delivered through Purity, the operating system of Pure Storage hardware. It’s clear that building cost and power-efficient flash devices will be a challenge for the wider industry, where the focus lies with consumer devices. Pure Storage believes it is well positioned to help customers and potentially hyper-scalers in their goals to deliver efficient storage for AI. As Shawn highlights, this topic and more will be discussed at Pure Accelerate , to be held in Las Vegas from 18-21 June 2024. Check out the website where you can learn more.

Storage Unpacked 258 – Introducing Infinidat G4, InfuzeOS 8 and InfiniSafe ACP (Sponsored) 47:27

منذ 41 weeks47:27

47:27

In this episode, Chris talks to Infinidat CMO, Eric Herzog . Infinidat has announced one of the biggest upgrades in eight years, with the release of InfiniBox and InfiniBox SSA G4, the fourth generation of enterprise-class storage. Accompanying the new hardware is an upgrade to InfuzeOS, the Infinidat storage operating system, and a new feature for InfiniSafe – Automated Cyber Protection, or ACP. Infinidat has upgraded both the InfiniBox and InfiniBox SSA platforms with a generation 4 release that includes a switch to AMD processors. Using the EPYC 9554P enables Infinidat to use a single-socket design, while gaining from the move to DDR5 system memory and PCIe 5.0 I/O. The savings to the customer are space, power and cooling. The AMD move also enables Infinidat to release new hardware configurations, including a 14U rack-mount solution for edge data centres, rather than just the custom rack used to ship existing products. InfuzeOS gains an upgrade to version 8, with support for InfuzeOS in the public cloud on Microsoft Azure (AWS was announced last year). The new hardware and software improvements result in a 2x performance gain for customers. One final announcement covers InfiniSafe and the ability to automate snapshots through the integration of cyber-detection technology with InfiniBox and InfiniBox SSA. Customers can now automate the creation of immutable snapshots if their SIEM or SOAR platform detects malicious activity.

Storage Unpacked 257 – The Future of Data Storage in the Enterprise (Sponsored) 49:53

In this sponsored episode, Chris talks to Fred Lherault and Larry Touchette from Pure Storage on the evolution of storage in the enterprise and the impacts on storage administration. The conversation is divided into three areas focusing on the customer, the administrator and the business. From the customer’s perspective, the requirements of on-premises data centre storage have changed significantly. Users expect resources to be deployed on demand, using APIs, CLIs or a GUI, without the intervention of a storage administrator. The self-service aspect is also aligned with 100% availability, an expectation that has evolved from the public cloud. End users have less interest in the hardware itself, but instead focus on metrics (IOPS, latency, throughput) and see storage as an endpoint to be consumed. The role of the storage administrator has evolved to be one similar to that of a product manager. The administration role is much more focused on ensuring storage is available and operating efficiently, rather than on the mundane task of provisioning resources. This means keeping close control on capacity growth, upgrades and patching. For the business, costs and efficient consumption models are key. With 30-40% annual growth in consumed terabytes, year-on-year costs need to decline, while systems must become more power, space and cooling efficient. Pure Storage has introduced Pure1 and Fusion, tools for the business and administrators to ensure that the storage infrastructure operates efficiently and meets the SLAs expected by internal customers. During the discussion, we highlight Pure Storage’s annual user conference, Accelerate , which will take place in Las Vegas between June 18th and 21st. Here is a list of some useful related content that discusses the evolution of storage in the data centre.
