MILPITAS, Calif., Nov. 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- LSI Corporation
(NYSE: LSI) today announced its 2nd annual Accelerating Innovation
Summit and Technology Showcase. The two-day, invitation-only event,
taking place November 16-17 in
Milpitas, Calif., brings together
LSI and other industry leaders to share their expert insights into
the issues, trends and technology solutions that will drive the
storage and networking industries in the coming years. The
accompanying Technology Showcase offers live demonstrations of the
latest innovative silicon and software technologies from LSI and
selected partners.
"The future of storage and networking requires higher
performing, more intelligent systems to contend with the data
growth caused by the proliferation of mobile devices and
datacenters," said Abhi Talwalkar,
president and CEO, LSI. "This is a vital time in our industry's
evolution, and we're bringing together experts from across the
storage and networking landscapes to talk about how adding
acceleration and intelligence to the datacenter and mobile networks
can solve the huge challenges ahead."
The summit's keynote speakers include Dr. Dileep Bhandarkar, Chief Architect, Microsoft
Global Foundation Services, and Mike
Chenery, Senior Fellow, SanDisk Enterprise Storage
Solutions. Dr. Bhandarkar will discuss one of the most pressing
issues facing the industry: how to improve total cost of ownership
and energy efficiency at all levels of the compute infrastructure
in the datacenter. Mr. Chenery will share his unique insight on how
the cloud has influenced the amount of data growth generated
worldwide, and why NAND flash memory holds the key to meeting both
current and future data storage challenges.
The summit includes multiple sessions focused on storage and
networking silicon and software technologies that are helping to
accelerate innovation in datacenters, mobile networks and the
cloud. Additionally, there will be panel discussions with industry
luminaries on topics such as the future of RAID data protection,
application acceleration using solid-state storage and 4G mobile
network architecture perspectives.
"The tremendous response to this event underscores the enormous
challenges of the rapidly changing marketplace. Today's datacenter
or mobile network architect has to balance competing priorities
such as power consumption, surging network traffic and rapidly
growing data volumes, and the summit is a place to meet with peers
to better understand the landscape and the innovative solutions
available," Talwalkar continued.
Summit attendees may also visit the LSI Technology Showcase to
view 30 live demonstrations of the latest storage and networking
technologies from LSI and select partners. Partner exhibits will be
hosted by AMD, Amkor Technology, Apache, Cadence, Enea, IDT, Mentor
Graphics, SandForce, SanDisk, SerialTek, Synopsys, TSMC and Wind
River.
