Storage virtualization has been a thing for decades. The early EMC storage arrays that lay at the heart of storage area networks (SANs) were an early attempt to create a virtualized pool of storage. So successful was the concept, that EMC became the dominant force in storage for decades and is now part of Dell Technologies.

Deep learning (DL) could be defined as a form of machine learning based on artificial neural networks which harness multiple processing layers in order to extract progressively better and more high-level insights from data. In essence it is simply a more sophisticated application of artificial intelligence (AI) platforms and machine learning (ML).

Could there be a hotter topic than Data Mesh these days? Some say it’s still largely theoretical, but the promise of data mesh does make sense: Give discrete groups within an organization dominion over their own data sets, which would be housed within a broader data platform that enables self-service development. A key aspect of the vision is to build data products that are designed and managed by focused departmental teams. Ideally, computational power (and cost) would be carved out according to business value. Sound intriguing?

Alluxio, the developer of the open source data orchestration platform for data driven workloads such as large-scale analytics and AI/ML, today announced it will present a session at the Linux Foundation’s Open Source Summit about strategies for building super-contributors in an open source community. The event is being held June 20 – 24 in Austin, TX and virtual.

Today, data-driven benefits abound. However, the ability to seize new business opportunities, create new products, and deal effectively with competitive issues requires strong data management and analytics capabilities.

“Sridhar joins Alluxio at an important inflection point where businesses around the globe are leveraging large scale analytics and AI/ML to achieve competitive advantage,” said Li. “In addition to extensive data infrastructure and AI/ML expertise, he has demonstrated a proven ability to build successful product teams at fast-growing companies and implement the latest processes with larger teams to deliver sustained performance. That blend will be invaluable as we continue to build out our vision adding new innovations and continuing to scale our data orchestration platform to meet growing market demand.”
