SNIA Got $350,000 From iStor, Mu Security and NetApp

The Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA) announced that
three new members of the SNIA Technology Center Champions Program
members iStor, Mu Security and NetApp have collectively contributed
over $350,000 in equipment in 2007 that will help support new hands-on
training programs at the association’s Technology Center in Colorado
Springs, Colorado.

The SNIA Technology Center provides year-round availability and remote
hosting of the technologies and equipment that drive the SNIA’s
involvement throughout the storage industry. The Tech Center Champions
Program ensures that the latest technologies are implemented and used
for the development of storage standards and interoperability testing,
as well as educational programs and solution demonstrations of
cutting-edge technologies at Storage Networking World conferences
around the world.

Since opening the SNIA Technology Center in 2002, the SNIA has hosted
more than 4,000 end-users at the Colorado Springs, CO facility for
training and education. This new program will be integrated into the
SNIA Education curriculum and ensure end users receive the same level
of vendor-neutral learning they have come to expect from the
Association.
