With tremendous amount of data being produced every day, high performance and highly available access to stored data has become a continuous challenge for enterprise IT companies and financial institutions. Due to the stringent criticality of customers’ data, financial institutions and online reservation systems mainly use high-end data storage systems offered by EMC, NetApp, HP, IBM, and Hitachi. With significant cost imposed by big amount of data, enterprise IT companies such as Facebook and Google, however, have not welcomed high-end data storage systems and instead have tried to more take advantage of low-cost storage servers. Such systems, however, suffer from major limitations such as long access latency, limited throughput, and less availability. In this talk, I first present common architectures used in data storage systems and their main differences with storage servers. Then, market trends in storage systems and storage servers will be covered. Design challenges of future storage systems are discussed next. Finally, I will present few research tracks on data storage systems including accelerating performance evaluation of disk subsystems, availability modeling, and Total Cost of Ownerships (TCO) of storage systems.
