- Choosing The Right Private Cloud Storage
By Joe Onisick
One of the key decisions in architecting an infrastructure for private cloud is selecting a storage platform for the deployment. Storage is a key component of the infrastructure and will play a major role in the overall performance of the private cloud. The storage decision carries additional weight due to its larger investment and typically longer refresh-cycle.

- Vendors Turn Flash To Cache, Saving Cash
By Howard Marks
Ever since EMC announced that they were putting SSDs, or as they call them Enterprise Flash Drives, into their disk arrays, we as an industry have been straining our little brains to figure out the best way to use flash memory to improve our storage. We've used flash as a storage tier inside disk arrays, as a cache in those arrays and as dedicated storage systems. More recently we've started seeing a variety of server or system side caching solutions. Is server side caching the answer?
