Plasmon Integrates NetApp RAID in Its Archiving Appliance

The UK company was not successful with its own disk array technology.

Plasmon PLC announced NetArchive, the first enterprise-class archive solution that blends the best online and long term storage archive architectures with bundled data management software to provide data integrity, longevity and disaster recovery, to ensure  critical data is highly available and authentic.

Plasmon’s NetArchive is a powerful combination of technologies that recognises that different data classes have unique requirements for access, e-discovery, and longevity. NetArchive integrates NetApp RAID technologies with Plasmon’s Archive Appliance and intelligent data management software to allow customers to provision data within NetArchive according to its unique storage requirements. NetArchive is an easy to order and install, integrated solution that provides immediate access to critical data via RAID storage, and a long-term, energy-efficient copy on Plasmon’s Archive Appliance. By provisioning data to NetArchive, data can be moved between RAID and the Archive Appliance via automated policy management software, reducing the cost and complexity of managing archives.

NetArchive is a key step toward the realisation of Plasmon’s strategy to simplify the archive process through virtualisation,” said Steven Murphy, Chief Executive Officer, Plasmon. “NetArchive revolutionises our customer’s approach to archiving by delivering an intelligence-based system behind a single storage node. The NetArchive leverages appropriate storage technologies to balance capacity, performance and storage costs against the legal and business value of data and improves operational efficiencies while meeting customer requirements for a robust disaster recovery strategy.”

Terri McClure, ESG analyst adds: “Customers can no longer afford to deal with the complexity associated with the morass of solutions most vendors offer to move persistent data to secondary, tertiary, and off-site storage tiers. IT professionals want a virtualised archive solution to manage data for business and regulatory requirements with multiple price, performance, and retention choices. Plasmon NetArchive enables just that solution.”

NetArchive is available immediately through Plasmon and certified Plasmon resellers.
