Data Storage Solutions, SAN-Storage area networks by Rorke Data

Stringent laws now require that electronic records managers and IS/IT managers be more accountable than ever. Beyond ensuring that information systems and records are reliable and efficient, managers must be certain that the data stored is available and accurate for an ever-increasing range of legal and regulatory purposes. Statutes require that courts and regulators expect companies to establish rules for the reliable capture, retention, management, storage, and deletion of information. It's imperative that the data be reliably retrieved when needed. The cost of failing to meet these requirements can be devastating.

First Widely-Adopted Tape Technology Offering WORM

DLTIce, in conjunction with the award-winning DLTSage™ architecture platform, provides customers WORM (Write Once, Read Many) archival functionality with a complete set of management tools and strong software support. DLTIce makes the SDLT 600 the first super drive that can utilize standard media for both traditional backup and archiving as well as for regulatory compliance.

DLTIce makes it possible for you to extend your existing investments in the SDLT 600 tape drive and Super DLTtape II media as integral components in compliant data storage environments.

DLTtape™ Technology is the first widely-adopted midrange tape technology to offer a WORM (Write Once Read Many) solution that provides secure, quick, and easy retrieval of archived records for government compliance.

Multi-Purpose Media Saves Money

DLTIce functionality is available at no additional charge, and ships with SDLT 600 tape drives and media.

The key to DLTIce's increased value and easy implementation is the use of standard Super DLTtape II media cartridges in the powerful SDLT 600 tape drives. There is no need for a separate media pool, and no reason to purchase different media. Data cannot be overwritten or reformatted, but can be appended.

Locked in DLTIce's Layers of Security

DLTIce provides multiple layers of security to assure compliance. Starting with the media itself, the DLTIce WORM capability places an electronic key on each tape to ensure WORM integrity. This unique identifier can not be altered, providing a tamper-proof archived tape version that meets stringent compliance requirements to ensure integrity protection and full accessibility with reliable duplication.

At the IT administrator level, DLTSage™ - Quantum's award-winning suite of predictive and preventative management tools - enables DLTIce functionality and verifies system integrity. This combination of DLTSage and DLTIce allows IT administrators to address the five elements of regulatory compliance:

integrity protection
accessibility
duplication
migration
auditing
