International Conference on Massive Storage Systems and Technology
Since the conference was founded, in 1974, by the leading national laboratories, MSST has been a venue for massive-scale storage system designers and implementers, storage architects, researchers, and vendors to share best practices and discuss building and securing the world's largest storage systems for high-performance computing, web-scale systems, and enterprises.
Since 2014, MSST, which is the longest-running storage systems conference, has been hosted by the School of Engineering at Santa Clara University, which itself is not just the Jesuit university of Silicon Valley, and therefore a part of a five-century-long educational tradition, but is also the longest-operating institution of higher education in California.
