Description

IBM's Storage Archive software, part of its comprehensive storage portfolio, features a user-friendly graphical interface that facilitates the management of data stored in tape drives and libraries, utilizing the Linear Tape File System (LTFS) standard for the reading, writing, and exchanging of metadata on tape cartridges. This solution allows users to directly and intuitively access their tape-stored data, removing the necessity for extra tape management tools or software to retrieve information. Furthermore, Storage Archive provides three distinct software options tailored for managing digital files with the LTFS format: Single Drive Edition, Library Edition, and Enterprise Edition, catering to various organizational needs and scales. With these options, users can choose the most suitable solution to efficiently handle their archival data requirements.

Description

StarWind VTL enables organizations to transition away from expensive physical tape backup systems while still meeting regulatory requirements for data retention and archiving, utilizing on-premises Virtual Tape Libraries combined with cloud and object storage tiering. To safeguard your backups against ransomware threats, they can be kept "air-gapped" on virtual tapes. You have the flexibility to replicate and tier backups to any public cloud, utilizing industry-standard object storage for enhanced scalability, security, and cost-effectiveness. We are excited to present a consumption-based licensing model for StarWind VTL, eliminating restrictions on the number of installations or backup servers. Instead, you only pay for the data managed by the VTL instances operating within your infrastructure. Additionally, we offer automatic discounts for larger data sets, meaning that as your archive grows, the cost per terabyte decreases significantly. As we introduce the subscription model gradually across different regions, your sales representative is ready to provide you with specific information regarding availability in your area, ensuring that you have the best options suited for your needs. This approach allows businesses to enhance their backup strategies while optimizing their budgets effectively.
