Simplified Namespace Management Using CDMI and Open Standards
Explore namespace management simplification through open standards in this 46-minute webinar presented by David Slik, SNIA Cloud Storage Technical Work Group Chair, and Michael Hoard from Intel. Dive into the complexities of modern dynamic namespaces that combine block, file, object, key-value, queue, and graph-based resources across multiple systems and locations. Learn how the SNIA Cloud Data Management Interface (CDMI™), an ISO-certified standard (ISO/IEC 17826:2022), addresses challenges in managing distributed resources. Discover solutions for namespace discovery, introspection, exports, and imports while examining the limitations of proprietary management systems, industry evolution, and cross-platform portability issues. Master practical use cases for implementing CDMI-based namespace management to achieve simplified, consistent control over complex data environments.
