Storage in the AI Era: Performance, Protection & Resilience
AI is fundamentally reshaping enterprise storage environments. From AI/ML workloads that place unprecedented demands on performance and scalability, to automation that accelerates configuration change, today’s storage leaders are operating in a far more dynamic – and far less forgiving – environment than ever before.
At the same time, storage and backup systems have become a primary target for ransomware and destructive attacks, placing cyber resilience squarely on the infrastructure agenda.
Storage in the AI Era: Performance, Protection & Resilience is a Virtual Panel bringing together enterprise storage vendors to share perspectives on how organizations are adapting to these shifts.
Drawing on insights from real‑world deployments across enterprise environments, the panel will examine how organizations are modernizing storage strategies to support AI‑driven workloads – while ensuring these platforms remain secure, recoverable, and resilient under real‑world attack conditions.
Panelists will share what they are seeing across customers: common gaps, emerging best practices, and how leading organizations are protecting last‑line‑of‑defense systems such as storage and backup.
Attendees will gain a broader, market‑level view of how storage architectures are evolving in the AI era, and what it takes to build resilience before an incident puts those assumptions to the test
