My organization has written a book about Information and Storage Management, and we’re previewing it over in the EMC Proven Professional community.  The book hasn’t been released yet, so the only place to get a little sneak peek of it right now is to visit the Industry Readiness section of the Proven community.

I’ve written before about the importance of storage education, and really its more than just storage education. Where are we going to find workers trained in end-to-end management of information systems? Who is teaching folks coming out of school topics such as:

• Challenges and solutions for data storage and data management
• Intelligent storage systems
• Storage networking (FC-SAN, IP-SAN, NAS)
• Backup, recovery, and archive (including CAS)
• Business continuity and disaster recovery
• Storage security and virtualization
• Managing and monitoring the storage infrastructure

That’s what this book is all about. I know I would have LOVED an end-to-end book like this when I came to EMC straight out of college. How about you?
