SMB 3.x improvements; storage tiering; Storage QoS; Storage Replica; data de-duplication; and many other features.\u00a0 When compared to the costs and administrative complexity of traditional SANs, these tools can provide ready solutions for environments of all sizes and types.\u00a0 The focus will be on technical details about the features and capabilities of the Windows Server platform, and how organizations can make best use of them.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It would be great if you can make it for the live session, but if not, it will also be available on-demand after the event is complete.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Note:<\/span> To access the recording of this session (and all of my past BrightTALK webinars), please search using\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.brighttalk.com\/search?q=Anil+Desai\">https:\/\/www.brighttalk.com\/search?q=Anil+Desai<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ll be giving a presentation as part of BrightTALK&#8216;s Software-Defined Week of presentations.\u00a0 The free session (registration required) is titled Software-Defined Storage Features in Windows Server 2016.\u00a0 Here&#8217;s an overview of the presentation topic: Meeting storage-related requirements has been a long-standing challenge for IT organizations, and added workload requirements from cloud- and software-defined architectures can [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[42,36,21,12,33],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1054","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-cloud-computing","category-presentations","category-vm-storage","category-virtualization","category-windows-server"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anildesai.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1054","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/anildesai.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/anildesai.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anildesai.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anildesai.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1054"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/anildesai.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1054\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1076,"href":"https:\/\/anildesai.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1054\/revisions\/1076"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anildesai.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1054"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anildesai.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1054"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anildesai.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1054"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
