Please review draft of new page: Converged storage page

I would like to create a new page for converged storage, a term that is notable. Please could you review and let me know if this meets the standards. thanks Sfiteditor (talk) 16:57, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

now in User:Sfiteditor/Converged storage see below W Nowicki (talk) 22:09, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for reviewing Sfiteditor (talk) 16:57, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

If you are looking for review of a new page before it goes live...

you may be interested in Wikipedia:Articles for creation. You likely will get more rapid feedback there. Regards! VQuakr (talk) 19:20, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

Another place to look is Wikipedia:Requests for feedback but since you already got our attention, I took the liberty of moving it first into a subpage, User:Sfiteditor/Converged storage so the changes can be tracked and then moved to main space if and when notability is established. A bunch of style issues need to be worked on, which I can start on to give you some examples. W Nowicki (talk) 22:09, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

Feedback

I started auditing the sources, and not sure this is going to work. Take a look at some cosmetic issues like avoiding duplicate ref tags by using names. But the main problem is the topic itself. Your citation for the definition starts off on a bad way by not even using the term you claim it defines. As a person long experienced in this and related fields, I was wondering if you might be talking about something like Converged Enhanced Ethernet (where the same network is used for both storage and other networking access), or perhaps boxes that implement both file server (NAS) and block access (SAN), called Unified Network Storage by a leading brand (although others use other terms). So this seems to fall a bit under the neologism category. Not really an industry standard term. It looks like HP might use this term as a buzzword to make it appear the various storage products they sell are similar in some way? But tht is just a marketing prorgam, and we do not cover those in wikipedia. It also seems in some places you are just stalking about direct-attach storage? Since that is what "compute and storage together" is after all. Would need much clarification to get published. W Nowicki (talk) 23:11, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
