Description

In the modern era, the speed and volume of data generation are escalating rapidly, particularly in sectors such as research, media, and diagnostics. To address the challenges associated with storing and archiving this vast amount of information, the PoINT Archival Gateway offers a robust solution by securely managing large datasets on tape storage systems with impressive transfer rates while adhering to regulatory standards. This software-based, high-performance object storage system is designed to work seamlessly with tape libraries, enabling the efficient storage and archiving of hundreds of petabytes of data. A key aspect that underpins the effectiveness of the PoINT Archival Gateway is its ability to swiftly receive incoming data and write it securely to storage media in a format that allows for quick retrieval later. Furthermore, its exceptional scalability allows the system to accommodate transfer rates exceeding 1 PB per day, making it an ideal choice for organizations facing the challenges of massive data influx. This combination of features ensures that the PoINT Archival Gateway remains a leading choice for data management in an increasingly data-driven world.

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.
