Dear Partners and Clients,

Join us at the IBM Research Lab in Rüschlikon for the “IBM Swiss Winter Storage Technical Session“ with IBM Technical Gurus.

Topics to include the FlashCore Modules (FCM4) which is integral to IBM's integrated Ransomware Threat Detection which baselines a new era in real-time cyber resiliency.

Content-Aware Storage (CAS), engineered to enhance the value of AI applications, such as retrieval augmented generation (RAG) for faster time to insights, reduced cost, improved performance, enhanced security, and streamlined operations. 

Also, hear about the innovation in tape hardware and the future of tape technology (IBM Diamondback Tape Library) and the integration and use of IBM Deep Archive. 

We look forward to welcoming you!
 

Date: 6 November 2025
Location: IBM Research Lab, Säumerstrasse 4, 8803 Rüschlikon, Zürich
