Abstract

In 2006, Sloan Kettering Institute opened its new Mortimer B. Zuckerman 23-story research center. This effectively doubled the size of SKI, which is still growing. With these new labs coming in, storage growth has been explosive. Implementing cost-effective storage tiers has allowed SKI's Research Computing group to effectively manage this storage growth.
