Storagetek Application Storage Manager™ (ASM) is intelligent data movement software that is designed to automate data management and retrieval across a storage hierarchy via user-defined policies.

With ASM software, you can grow without limits, ensure business continuity and maximize IT productivity while you reduce costs dramatically - primarily because you can avoid adding more disk or optical platters. And ASM software offers a lot more:
Save the expense associated with replicating data on disk and optical platters, which requires significant, unnecessary capacity.
Manage available disk capacities at specified thresholds by clearing space allocated to copied data.
Copy files automatically and transparently from expensive online disk to designated tiers of less expensive automated removable media.
Retrieve files as needed based on predictable response performance.
Make remote disaster recovery copies automatically.
Reduce IT resource consumption because there's less disk or platters to manage.
Ensure fastest access with dynamic load balancing.
Please users with non-disruptive, automatic data backup based on user-define policies.
