This year's event will again be jointly sponsored by the Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA) and DMTF. Led by DMTF vice president of alliances, Mark Carlson, the agenda for the meetings will focus on technical topics and address the technical work done by each of the DMTF Alliance Partners. Registration is free; view the current schedule here.

Co-located with the Technical Symposium, the System Management Forum will host the first DASH Plugfest to resolve interoperability problems early in the development cycle. All member companies that have DASH MAP implementations, DASH-enabled management applications or tools that expose or exercise DASH interfaces are welcome to participate.
