- Describe the overall characteristics of data
- List and classify different data types within the data taxonomy
- Identify the problems of scale and management in big data
- Discuss the various application requirements in storage, and map the design choices for storage systems
- Recall the memory hierarchy in computer systems and explain the tradeoffs of cost, performance, and capacity at each layer
- Recall the various types of devices used in storage systems
- Describe the various abstractions exposed to applications in storage systems
- Discuss the design considerations of local and distributed file systems
