Description
The objective of this job is to design next‐generation data processing models for applications that require general data orchestration, independent of any programming model. Based on the Petabyte-Storage Device ETERNUS CD10000, you focus on workflows how to link data and applications on high scale petabyte dimensions.
Huge amounts of data require a change in the model of handling them.
Previous technologies tend not to expand to the new dimensions. This opens ranges of opportunities solve the existing issues (virtualization, sync-and-sharing, mobile data) in new storage dimensions and new storage approaches.
You can examine how old and new storage systems can interact and how and storage clusters and computation can come work closer in future.
The research focuses the integration of new scale-out storage systems into new application areas. The candidate therefore explores this opportunities based on a list of example applications. The resulting approaches should generalize the gained insights, helping to bring storage and computation closer together.
You will be given the opportunity to present for a PhD in cooperation with the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz (JGU). There will be multiple visits may last several months, as well as visits to other locations of partners within the ETN for education and liaison purposes.
The storage location and design shall be improved. This shall conclude into more efficiency for the IT “cloud” storage eco system. You will implement methods to achieve more efficient storing, caching, replicating and moving big data.
To apply, please email a cover letter, CV, contact address of at least two professional references and copies of degree certificates to Dr. Sepp Stieger. Incomplete applications will not be considered or answered.
