Deduplication is moving to primary storage, where disk space
can be three times as expensive as backup. We look at use
cases where primary dedupe does -- and doesn't -- make sense.
ALSO: blade server architectures are built for virtualization
and I/O. We get inside designs from Cisco and HP.

- RFI Responses: The New Data Center Network
Today's networks are under increasing pressure to support faster speeds and more virtual machines, and to carry both data and storage traffic. A network upgrade is an ideal time to evaluate the vendor you have in place. It's an opportunity to see whether your vendor's products are a fit with your business requirements or whether another vendor makes more sense.

- Wi-Fi Direct Is Here; Hang On For The Ride
By Lee H. Badman
Way back when, the original IEEE 802.11 standard provided for peer-to-peer wireless communication along with the more mainstream access point-based Wi-Fi that has become pervasive. Anyone who has taken a basic wireless networking class has learned about the Independent Basic Service Set (IBSS) which is the technical name for ad-hoc client connectivity. Before the advent of high capacity thumb drives, peer-to-peer wireless might have been used to get files from your machine to the person next to you, if you could figure out the wireless setup and opted to permit file sharing directly from your hard drive. But as is often the case, what's old has become new again, as Wi-Fi Direct makes it's entrance.

- Brocade And Cisco Maintain SAN Lock-In Status Quo With FCoE
By Mike Fratto, Editor
If you are a storage administrator, you are used to vendor lock-in driven by your storage vendor and you choose SAN equipment based on a qualified equipment list. You might even defend the lock-in as being preferable. If you are a network administrator looking at FCoE, you are going to chafe under these restrictions because you'll find your product choices restricted to whatever products the SAN vendor, Brocade or Cisco, has qualified with. If you go off the qualified equipment list, you won't get support, and you will continue to pay comparatively high prices for what should be commodity equipment and features. Both Brocade and Cisco are trying to maintain the status quo in storage by standards and non-standards based protocols for the same functions forcing you into making a difficult choice and potentially locking out competitors.

- Big Data: Store Everything And Watch Storage Grow
By David Greenfield
One of the big stories from the Teradata Partners conference that just finished up in San Diego was the huge advantage that retailers gain by the tracking the buying actions of their customers online and the enormous impact that's going to have on your storage assets in the years ahead. Business managers can't predict what questions they want to ask about their customers and can't say which collected data is useful or not. The answer is to store it all.
