[sn-cg] GGF (OGF)19 North Carolina meeting. Session opportunity in storage.

[Chris Kantarjiev]

I'd like us to figure out how to engage the folks that have been gathering "enterprise requirements" for a couple of years now. That's EGR-RG in OGF parlance, and the fact that they're a -RG Research Group, means that they are not expected and don't expect to produce a standard.
 

That's OK in itself, but there's no point in them holding meetings if no one is going to listen to them.

I think they've collected a bunch of interesting use cases and data points, but it will take someone else paying attention to use it to drive standards. Maybe we should be the first.

(Or tell me I'm nuts, it's OK :-)

Best,
chris

Sorry it took me so long to get back to all of you. Here’s a suggestion that we discussed on the sn-cg weekly call today:

 

-          This OGF19 will not include a typical GridWorld audience, but a traditional symposium one.

-          The SN-CG projects (Storage GME,…) are still in their infancy – lots to define/discuss as yet

-          Maybe we should leverage the panel idea to promote the Enterprise Grid requirement ideas (including Data Storage) and call for a broader participation to help addressing the Enterprise readiness issues of Grid standards, especially from product developers.

-          A moderator like you John would certainly help focusing on IT users issues.

 

Thoughts/comments?

 

Cheers!

Vincent.

HI,

I'm certainly up for this.

I like the idea of staying with the panel, wouldn't mind moderating and we draw up the questions before hand. Possibly, two slides per person on topic of choice, i.e., discussing what you see as priorities—total of 5 mins each: then we would likely have 30 mins for Q&A- and like to leave 2 mins each at the end for "walk away points".



 



 Really believe that there needs to be some discussion and presentation from the storage community. I tend to run sessions a little different and more interactive and engaging. If this might be of interest. Let me get it in to the program committee.



 



Let me know ASAP if this is of interest. Thanks.
