The event enables tech vendors and real engineers \/ architects \/ bloggers (aka delegates) to sit down and have a conversation about their latest products, along with\u00a0technology and industry trends.<\/p>\n<p>Ever been reading up on a vendor\u2019s website about their technology and had some questions they didn\u2019t answer? One of the roles of the TFD delegates is to ask the questions which help viewers to understand the technology. If you tune in live, you can also post questions via Twitter and the delegates, who will happily ask them on your behalf!<\/p>\n<p>As a delegate it\u2019s an awesome experience as you get to spend several days visiting some of the biggest and newest companies in the industry,\u00a0nerding out with like-minded individuals, and learning as much from the other delegates as you do from the vendors!<\/p>\n<p>So with this in mind, I am very pleased to say that I will be joining the TFD crew for the fourth time in Denver, for <a href=\"http:\/\/techfieldday.com\/event\/sfd13\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Storage Field Day 13<\/a>,\u00a0from the 14th-16th of June!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2132\" src=\"http:\/\/tekhead.it\/wp-uploads\/www.tekhead.org\/2017\/06\/sfd13vendors.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"379\" height=\"145\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tekhead.it\/wp-uploads\/www.tekhead.org\/2017\/06\/sfd13vendors.png 379w, https:\/\/tekhead.it\/wp-uploads\/www.tekhead.org\/2017\/06\/sfd13vendors-150x57.png 150w, https:\/\/tekhead.it\/wp-uploads\/www.tekhead.org\/2017\/06\/sfd13vendors-300x115.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 379px) 100vw, 379px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As you can see from the list of vendors, there are some really interesting sessions coming up! Having previously met with <a href=\"http:\/\/tekhead.it\/blog\/2015\/11\/software-defined-storage-virtualisation-how-useful-is-that-then\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Primary Data<\/a>, it will be great to catch up with them and find out about how they have improved in the past couple of years. We also use quite a selection of DellEMC products at my organisation, so it will be really good to meet them and get the latest updates.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, I am particularly keen to find out what future trends and movements will be from the perspective of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.snia.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SNIA<\/a>, the Storage Network Industry Association, about some of the most cutting edge developments in the industry.<\/p>\n<h5>SFD13 Sounds great!
