Information Storage and Management (ISM) is a unique course that provides a comprehensive
understanding of the various storage infrastructure components in data center environments. It
enables participants to make informed decisions on storage-related technologies in an
increasingly complex IT environment, which is fast changing with the adoption of software-defined
infrastructure management and third platform technologies (cloud, Big Data, social, and mobile
technologies). It provides a strong understanding of storage technologies and prepares
participants for advanced concepts, technologies, and processes. Participants will learn the
architectures, features, and benefits of intelligent storage systems including block-based, file-
based, object-based, and unified storage; software-defined storage; storage networking
technologies such as FC SAN, IP SAN, and FCoE SAN; business continuity solutions such as
backup and replication; the highly-critical areas of information security; and storage infrastructure
management. This course takes an open-approach to describe all the concepts and technologies,
which are further illustrated and reinforced with EMC-related product examples.
