IBM tape storage
With the enormous increase in data storage that organisations are experiencing the need to ensure reliable and secure backup is vital for both business continuity and compliance requirements
Tape backup storage is still an important part of overall storage infrastructure for protecting and retaining data. It is the storage option with the lowest total cost of ownership for:
• Protecting data
• Securely backing up and storing data both short term and for long-term archives
• Record keeping and disaster recovery
IBM tape storage solutions
IBM has been developing innovative tape technologies for the past 60 years. This innovation has been acknowledged with awards for the IBM Linear Tape File System (LTFS). The first file system that works in conjunction with tape technology, LTFS sets a new standard for ease-of-use and portability for tape storage.
IBM tape storage offers solutions for backup, recovery, archiving, data protection and retention. The IBM backup tape storage solutions are available for every type of requirement: enterprise, midrange and entry.
In addition IBM virtual tape systems are also available to provide continuous data protection for local and remote data centres. These deliver continuous data availability with automated replication and recovery.
