Enhance data management
ASM software provides scalability so storage capacity can be increased at a low cost. Archival images are separated from archival data to optimize performance. ASM software provides a simple system to make copies of archived data and information available to applications when they are needed.
Support e-mail archiving
ASM software features enhance e-mail systems, providing automatic migration of e-mail messages from servers to tape based on defined data policies and automatic shortcuts to newly archived messages and attachments. With ASM software, e-mail attachments are managed separately from messages to further reduce storage requirements.
Reduce cost
ASM software stores and manages data for compliance and non-compliance archives using a tiered storage approach. Automated management of data placement virtually eliminates human intervention. Information is placed in the most cost-effective location, while enabling you to meet your service level requirements.
Improve primary data performance
ASM software reduces the glut of dormant data in the primary data path, improving performance and reducing daily backup requirements. The software populates all tiers of storage concurrently and removes the data from the primary path. Copies of the data are distributed electronically through disk-to-disk replication and client/server copy management.
Simplify storage management
By integrating disk and tape into a seamless storage solution, ASM software helps simplify storage management. You can store all types of content in one or many file systems and manage it online or offline.
Increase availability
With ASM software, your data is seamlessly and transparently available to users no matter where the data is stored. And if your primary copy fails, the second copy can be read seamlessly.
