This article is a brief summary of
a talk given at CA-World 99. As the talk itself was an introduction to the
subject, it necessarily follows that this article only skims the surface!
RAID (Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks) technology was developed at Berkeley
in the 80s as a way of configuring several small unreliable disks to provide
larger and/or more resilient volumes. The advances in disk technology in recent
years have removed some of the original need for RAID. It can, however, still
play a useful role in the disk subsystem of an Ingres system.
