Nowadays organisations come across several transactions and activities which is impossible to recognise. Additionally, due to the COVID-19 pandemic situation, data volumes continue to grow exponentially. Storing and managing these large amounts of structured and unstructured data is the pain point for many organisations. Therefore, there is a need to have a place where these data can be stored and can be used for future retrieval. Also, a good storage system ensures clean and hassle-free environment.
Organisations depend on many storage media like flash, cloud, and disk. A good storage system provides greater flexibility to users. Management of these storage helps in keeping check on the number of users accessing it. Furthermore, data analysis and forecasting become easy if they are managed properly.
Tape backup is the most consistent and cheapest way to store data. Once the tape system is set up, it is easy to run and expand. Therefore, it is chosen in larger organisations to gain the disk-based advantages. Further, it can also integrate VTLs into disk-based offsite replication and disaster recovery systems. Newer VTLs are providing NAS support to interconnect with as many network protocols as possible.
Tyrone Verta is a unified architecture that provides FC, 1G, 10G,25G, 40G, 100G, IB and IP connectivity for NAS, SAN and VTL operations. It consolidates file, block, and object data in a single storage solution where you can achieve key business benefits in cost-effective ways while eliminating the need for separate storage boxes.
Tape technology has many benefits over the disk and flashes technology. The biggest advantage of VTL is its seamless integration into an existing tape backup infrastructure.
