Soon after Teraflops, HPC facilities were handling Peta-Byte data. The challenges of Exa, Zeta and Yotta-byte data will be a significant, possibly dominate, limiter on productivity of HPC users.
This panel will address the question "Is the HPC community ready for Exa -Byte data?" and discuss challenges of Yotta-bytes.
Specific topics include:how to maintain performance and reliability while storage systems exponentially increase in size, files and components;
how to provide information lifecycle management across loosely integrated storage subsystems;
how to enhance the ability to locate and use exa bytes of data to the right place at the right time;
enhanced tools that will be needed to assure data integrity;
and exa-byte data access methods.
The Panel will make predictions and recommendations for Yotta Scale data as well.
