StorSentry - Continuous monitoring of all the tape storage infrastructure.
With the exponential growth in data volumes, the capacity of IT centers to save, protect and make available data has become a major challenge for businesses and organizations.
The StorSentry century solution addresses durability and availability issues that apply to data stored on magnetic tape.
StorSentry is used to anticipate malfunction problems affecting the hardware and software infrastructure.
A real-time dashboard identifies errors; alarms are triggered in line with preset thresholds.
Action recommendations are generated in line with the risk management policy defined.
Customized reporting provides ongoing monitoring for the systems implemented.
The storage unit operating history obtained brings you essential information for properly managing infrastructure capacity.
StorSentry - An overall approach for managing business data and information assets
The unique StorSentry technology provides:
Continuous monitoring of all the tape storage infrastructure.
