On March 30th 2010, first collisions took place at 7 TeV in the LHC, creating a phenomenal quantity of data. This not only marked the start of a new era for particle physics but also presents an enormous challenge in the field of computing, in terms of data transfer, storage and processing. And this is what we will be focussing on this spotlight on CERN. Interview with Ian Bird.
