On **March 26, 2021 at 11:00 CDT** , we will present the webinar, Hermes – A Distributed Buffering System for Heterogeneous Storage Hierarchies.

**Abstract**  
In this webinar, we will provide an update on an NSF-funded joint effort between the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT) and The HDF Group. We will explain Hermes’ goals and what differentiates it from existing technologies. We will introduce our team members, and present Hermes’ current status including the abstractions involved, high-level API, as well as its system architecture. Different team members will present the results they’ve obtained under this project. Finally, we’ve prepared a few demonstrations, and we will show how you can get involved.
