dinCloud’s CTO, was featured in ComputerWorld on techniques to control the chaos in data storage. Chase emphasizes the importance of minimizing latency, quoting that “one latency saving technique is to perform traditional mechanisms, such as encryption, compression, and de-duplication, before they hit the disk (in-line) versus once they’ve been saved to the disk (on-line). If you wait until they are on the disk you’ll increase system load, as such procedures require further manipulation to increase efficiency.”
