VARINDIA- INDIA'S FRONTLINE IT MAGAZINE

Extending its leadership in the enterprise storage market, Oracle has announced the StorageTek T10000C tape drive, which provides the highest performance, lowest total cost of ownership at one-third to one-fifth the floor space of any tiered storage, archive or backup solution.

Oracle's StorageTek tiered storage solutions incorporate the advantages of both disk and tape, and deliver the most scalable, cost-efficient and energy-efficient storage solutions for heterogeneous data protection, consolidation, archiving and cloud environments.

Compared to disk-only solutions from EMC, Oracle's StorageTek solution scales to 30x the capacity, and 50x the performance, while requiring 99-per cent less power and cooling. The capacity and throughput increase helps customers drastically reduce the cost of enterprise storage, while providing the fastest backup and archive solutions.

"The release of the StorageTek T10000C tape drive reaffirms Oracle's undisputed leadership in tape technology,"said James Cates, Vice-President, Hardware Development, Oracle. "The StorageTek T10000C sets the new standard in tape by storing over three times more data on a single cartridge than any other tape drive.

Combining it with the StorageTek SL3000 and SL8500 libraries help ensure that customers, regardless of size, can afford to retain critical data without concern for future scalability."

Oracle's StorageTek tape storage solutions are the first to scale to an exabyte (1000 PB, with 2:1 compression) to handle the world's largest archive and long-term backup requirements. The solutions include in-line encryption which provides the critical data protection that enterprise customers demand while remaining completely transparent to the application and without any performance degradation.
