From the editors

As enterprises evolve their next-generation IT infrastructures, storage is taking on new style. Discoverability and recoverability are guiding principles. Optimization and virtualization are critical goals. The tools and technologies for enabling all are getting jazzier all the time, and today’s storage networks and systems are becoming faster, smarter and better than ever at keeping data accessible yet safe and in compliance with corporate policy and regulatory rules. In this, the third in our six-part New Data Center series, we explore these and other of the splashiest storage trends and technologies.
