Which copy of that file is the real one? Dinner, off the record, in Midtown

Joe Fay chairs a Register dinner in New York on the file infrastructure nobody has got around to replacing, with nothing on the record.

Which copy of that file is the real one? Dinner, off the record, in Midtown

On Tuesday, October 27th, The Register hosted a private dinner in New York for senior technology, infrastructure and data leaders. The event, which took place in Midtown, was held under the Chatham House Rule, meaning nothing said would leave the table. The discussion focused on the challenges of managing unstructured file data in distributed teams, with the aim of modernizing storage and governance investments without replacing existing systems.

Joe Fay, the moderator from The Register, led the conversation, ensuring that everyone was treated as a peer and that no one pitched their ideas. The dinner lasted from 6:00pm to 8:30pm at The Capital Grille, located at 120 W 51st Street, and the spots were limited and invitation-only.

Holly Bossert, Commercial Sales US at LucidLink, joined the discussion to provide insights. The main topics included handling the growth in unstructured data, supporting distributed teams without incurring duplicate file costs, dealing with sync and version control, and assessing the effectiveness of these measures against security incidents. The evening aimed to discuss practical solutions to current challenges, rather than planning for the future.
