<span class="s1"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">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.</span></span><span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black"> </span></span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
