By Pete Brey, HP StorageWorks ExDS9100 Product Marketing Manager As I'm sitting enjoying a cappuccino at the HQ of the 2009 HP Technology Forum in Las Vegas, I'm reflecting on how many changes have occurred since HPTF 2008. In that time, we started shipping the 9100 Extreme Data Storage System...

By Ian Duncan You almost certainly shouldn't have a favorite child - that can't end well. At some point in your life you may well find yourself having a favorite pair of socks - this is a normal sign of aging. Don't fight it - it's inevitable. You can (in fact I may argue you should)...

By Michael Callahan As my colleague Calvin Zito mentioned earlier today , I wanted to make a few comments on EMC's announcement of the EMC Atmos (nee Maui). Since we first started talking publically about the ExDS9100 system in May, I've been struck by the incredible diversity of the software...

In my previous post , we talked about EMC's Hulk/Maui and its conspicuous absence after early hyping by EMC management. Today I want to focus on the HP StorageWorks 9100 Extreme Data Storage System or ExDS9100. We announced it in May and at that time gave a lot of details about the product, saying...

Last November, the CEO of EMC gave a glimpse of products code named Hulk and Maui. He told the EMC Innovation Day audience that his company would deliver these to the market by May. Then came EMC World in late May. There was little to no public mention of Maui (the software component of a cloud-based...

By Calvin Zito I live in Boise Idaho and over the Fourth of July I took my kids to see Miley Cyrus in Provo, Utah at the annual Stadium of Fire. Since it was a six hour drive each way, I had a lot of time to think. One of the things I found myself contemplating was where storage was 15 years ago - that's...
