Daniel Ellard

I graduated in June 2004, but the Harvard EECS folk are kind enough to let me keep a web page here.

I currently work for the Advanced Technology Group (ATG) at NetApp in Waltham, MA. I am working on distributed, federated file systems and new storage architectures that leverage the properties of flash memory to create systems with unparalled price/performance (and performance/watt).

Previously I worked for Sun Microsystems Laboratories on topics related to distributed systems and large, fault tolerant data storage systems including Neuromancer and Project DarkStar.

Prior to graduation I was a graduate student member of the SyRaH -- (Systems Research at Harvard) team. My thesis advisor was Margo Seltzer and the other members of my thesis committee were Matt Welsh, Jim Waldo, and Michael Rabin.
