Confluent Inc. today announced new features in its cloud service that make it easier for users of its Apache Kafka-based streaming engine to store data in the Apache Iceberg table format. The new ...

An engineering researcher at RIT has discovered the means to process data using DNA. Their biocomputing design is a breakthrough that builds on innovative DNA engineering and computing system advances ...

Data storage and data processing have always been separate functions, but what if they could be unified and achieve much better performance? That’s the promise of computational storage. Although media ...

Diminutive computers have always been of particular interest to me. Just how much processing power, storage capacity, and the like can be cost-effectively squeezed into a tiny form factor while still ...

Big data generating applications are geared to flood data centers and edge infrastructure (as well as personal devices) over the next few years. Applications such as higher resolution, higher frame ...

We talk to Jeff Whitaker, vice-president for product marketing at scale-out NAS maker Panasas, about why storage is the key bottleneck in artificial intelligence (AI) processing. In this podcast, we ...

Enterprises are said to be awash in data, and one of the problems posed by all this data is not just storing it, but processing it. Storage architectures have by and large been keeping up with the ...

As Moore’s Law loses steam, off-loading data compression, data encryption, low-level data data processing, and other heavy-duty computation tasks to storage nodes makes sense. Here’s how that would ...
