16/03/2015 Seagate Collaborates with CERN openlab to Develop Its Breakthrough Kinetic Storage Platform

Seagate Technology plc (NASDAQ:STX), a world leader in storage solutions, announced today it has entered into a three-year partnership with CERN openlab to collaborate on the development of the Seagate Kinetic Open Storage platform. The partnership aims to help CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, to better manage and store the 100 petabytes of data the Large Hadron Collider has generated to date, as well as the additional 2-3 petabytes of information it produces on a monthly basis in its quest to further humanity’s understanding of the universe.

13/03/2015 The World's Largest Distributed Computer Grid Crunches LHC's Huge Numbers

The world's largest science experiment, the Large Hadron Collider, has potentially delivered one of physics' "Holy Grails" in the form of the Higgs boson. Much of the science came down to one number – 126, the Higgs boson's mass as measured in gigaelectronvolts. But this three-digit number rested upon something very much larger and more complicated: the more than 60,000 trillion bytes (60 petabytes) of data produced by colliding subatomic particles in four years of experiments, and the enormous computer power needed to make sense of it all.
 

12/03/2015 Inside the Large Hadron Collider: How IT powers the Greatest Experiment in history
At the press of a button, the largest machine ever made by humans will come alive. Buried around 100m underground, near Geneva, Switzerland, the Large Hadron Collider is about to make history once again when it restarts in a few weeks time. Thousands of researchers are at work in the center to discover how the world was made and what happened right after the Big Bang. Most of the time, it's the physicists that get all the credit for big breakthroughs. But they couldn't have done it without the IT guys.
04/03/2015 Der echte Nutzen von Public Cloud Infrastrukturen
Seit Anbeginn des Cloud Computing ist die Hybrid Cloud in aller Munde. Die Kernfragen, die es zu klären gilt: Was sind die Vorteile und existieren bereits tatsächlich belastbare, hybride Anwendungsfälle, die sich als Best Practice Orientierungshilfen nutzen lassen. Antworten darauf wird dieser Analyst View geben und in diesem Zuge ebenfalls die Idee hinter den Multi-Cloud-Szenarien erläutern.
20/02/2015 Hybrid und Multi-Cloud: Der echte Nutzen von Public Cloud Infrastrukturen
Was sind die Vorteile und existieren bereits tatsächlich belastbare, hybride Anwendungsfälle, die sich als Best Practice Orientierungshilfen nutzen lassen? Antworten liefert Cloud-Lead-Analyst René Büst von Crisp Research in diesem Analyst. Ein weiteres Thema dieses Beitrages sind noch offene Fragen bei Multi-Cloud-Szenarien.
