This entry-level Storage Options and Data Management Best Practices workshop introduces IU faculty, staff, and students to high performance storage options. It will introduce attendees to the various options for digital storage available through UITS Research Technologies, including Slate, Geode, and the Scholarly Data Archive (SDA). All digital storage options are not made equal, and all have various benefits and tradeoffs. With this in mind, this workshop seeks to empower users to confidently make educated decisions about which types of storage work best for their particular needs and use cases.

Topics covered will include comparative analyses of various types of storage media (chiefly, spinning disk vs. magnetic tape), breakdowns of various use cases and which types of storage work best for a particular use case, and comparative analyses of various technologies and methods for accessing IU digital storage resources.

Workshop attendees will:
-Become familiar with the various options for digital storage provided by UITS Research Technologies.
-Decipher the differences between these options.
-Choose which storage options best suit their particular needs.
-Learn the various technologies and methods used for accessing UITS RT storage options, again with an eye towards which technologies and methods best suit their needs.

The workshop is taught by staff of Research Technologies, a division of University Information Technology Services and a center in the Pervasive Technology Institute at Indiana University.
