COPAN Systems and
Luminex Software announced that they have partnered to enable mainframe users to take
advantage of COPAN Systems’ Enterprise MAID (Massive Array of Idle
Disks) for mainframe data protection solutions.
The
partnership enables mainframe enterprises, which typically process
massive volumes of “write once, read occasionally” persistent data, to
seamlessly offload that data to COPAN Systems Enterprise MAID (Massive
Array of Idle Disks) solutions. The integration of the Luminex Channel
Gateway with COPAN Systems Revolution Series provides a more efficient
and cost-effective method of managing persistent data while ensuring
the data reliability and availability that mainframe users have come to
expect. Customers will realize significant savings in power, cooling
and floor space via the Enterprise MAID platform while gaining access
to the unprecedented amounts of storage density and scalability
required by large enterprise environments.
