From HandWiki - Reading time: 1 min
The SCSI Trade Association (STA, previously SCSITA), is an industry trade group which exists to promote the use of SCSI technology. It was formed in 1996. As of 2012[update], sponsor members include HP, Intel, LSI Logic, PMC-Sierra, and Seagate.[1] Requirements for membership are (1) manufacturing or selling SCSI related products or services and (2) paying dues and fees, which start at $4500/year.[2]
STA is now part of SNIA, as of 2023 (see https://www.snia.org/news_events/newsroom/announces-new-scsi-trade-association-forum). See current information about the group here: https://www.snia.org/groups/sta.
The STA does not define SCSI technical standards; that is the job of the INCITS T10 Committee.[3] Rather, SCSITA promotes the use of SCSI and establishes standard marketing terminology and trademarks. They also foster vendor inter-operability.[4]
