Hybrid Storage
March 2009 - The blending of two disparate storage platforms into a single efficient system can be called a hybrid storage solution. PowerFile is on the forefront of storage evolution. Santa Clara-based PowerFile offers unique hybrid archival data storage solutions that classify, migrate, store, and protect corporate information in ways unachievable by traditional technologies. They have helped some of the greatest companies in the world experience the benefits of their hybrid Blu-ray archival storage technology. CUC has begun selling the new OmniLib/A3-series content-aware hybrid storage appliance solution that bridges the gap between modern data and legacy infrastructures. Incorporating PowerFile patented technology, the OmniLib/A3 was engineered to promote security and high availability of data within dedicated or mixed UNIX and Windows® environments. By integrating both Common Internet File System (CIFS) and Network File System (NFS) protocols, OmniLib/A3 allows you to focus on applications and not the back-end storage that supports them. Employing currently available 50GB blu-ray media, the OmniLib/A3 provides 140TB of uncompressed raw archival on-line storage capacity. For more information, go here.
