6:30pm - 7:30pm: Guaranteeing Storage Performance in CloudStack by Mike Tutkowski

This session will introduce the basics of primary storage in CloudStack. Additionally, I discuss the challenges of guaranteeing storage performance in a cloud and how by leveraging the latest enhancements to CloudStack, storage administrators can deliver consistent, repeatable performance to 10s, 100s or 1,000s of application workloads in parallel. I'll review the CloudStack enhancements in detail, outline the management benefits they provide and discuss common go-to-market approaches.
