Storage World Conference
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Storage World Conference (sometimes called SWC) was a conference for data storage, networking, and IT professionals in the United States.[1] Associated with the Association of Storage Networking Professionals, SWC was held from 2001 through 2006.[citation needed] The event was oriented towards end users of data storage equipment and software, and included a professional certification program to encourage attendance at educational sessions.[citation needed]
In 2001, conference organizers decided to proceed with the event in San Jose, California, despite the September 11 attacks in New York and Washington, DC.[2] Between 2001 and 2002, attendance at the event doubled.[1] In 2002, protesters gathered outside the conference in San Jose during the keynote by StorageTek CEO Pat Martin.[3]
