PDSW'26 builds upon the rich legacy of its predecessor workshops, the Petascale Data Storage Workshop (PDSW, 2006–2015) and the Data Intensive Scalable Computing Systems (DISCS, 2012–2015) workshop. The increasing importance of efficient data storage and management continues to drive scientific productivity across traditional simulation-based HPC environments and emerging Cloud, AI/ML, and Big Data analysis frameworks. Challenges are compounded by the rapidly expanding volumes of experimental and observational data, the growing disparity between computational and storage hardware performance, and the rise of novel data-driven algorithms in machine learning. This workshop aims to advance research and development by addressing the most pressing challenges in large-scale data storage and processing. We invite the community to contribute original research manuscripts that introduce and evaluate novel algorithms or architectures, share significant scientific case studies or workloads, or assess the reproducibility of previously published work. We emphasize the importance of community collaboration for problem identification, workload capture, solution interoperability, standardization, and shared tools. Authors are encouraged to provide comprehensive experimental environment details (software versions, benchmark configurations, etc.) to promote transparency and facilitate collaborative progress. ----------------------------- Topics of Interest ----------------------------- - Scalable Architectures: Distributed data storage, archival, and virtualization. - New Data Processing Models and Algorithms: Application of innovative data processing models and algorithms for parallel computing and analysis. - Performance Analysis: Benchmarking, resource management, and workload studies. - Cloud and Container-Based Models: Enabling cloud and container-based frameworks for large-scale data analysis. - Storage Technologies: Adaptation to emerging hardware and computing models. - Data Integrity: Techniques to ensure data integrity, availability, reliability, and fault tolerance. - Programming Models and Frameworks: Big data solutions for data-intensive computing. - Hybrid Cloud Data Processing: Integration of hybrid cloud and on-premise data processing. - Cloud-Specific Opportunities: Data storage and transit opportunities specific to cloud computing. - Storage System Programmability: Enhancing programmability in storage systems. - Data Reduction Techniques: Filtering, compression, and reduction techniques for large-scale data. - File and Metadata Management: Parallel file systems, metadata management at scale. - In-Situ and In-Transit Processing: Integrating computation into the memory and storage hierarchy for in-situ and in-transit data processing. - Alternative Storage Models: Object stores, key-value stores, and other data storage models. - Productivity Tools: Tools for data-intensive computing, data mining, and knowledge discovery. - Data Movement: Managing data movement between compute and data-intensive components. - Cross-Cloud Data Management: Efficient data management across different cloud environments. - AI-enhanced Systems: Storage system optimization and data analytics using machine learning. - New Memory and Storage Systems: Innovative techniques and performance evaluation for new memory and storage systems. - AI and Agentic related data management: tools and techniques necessary to support AI workloads and Agentic AI data analytics for online decision making.

To assist with our planning for future LUG events, we are seeking organizations interested in hosting a Lustre User Group (LUG) Conference. Hosting LUG is a great opportunity to showcase your organization, engage with the Lustre community, and help shape one of the premier technical events for users and developers of Lustre and related technologies. If your organization is interested in hosting a future LUG, or if you'd simply like to learn more about what's involved, we'd love to hear from you. We're happy to answer questions and discuss how OpenSFS partners with host organizations to make the event successful. Please contact admin at opensfs.org to express your interest or request additional information. We look forward to working with the community to identify future hosts and continue making LUG a valuable event for everyone. Thanks for your ongoing support of the Lustre community!
