Active Archive, Cloud Backup & DR
Reduce Storage Footprint, Eliminate Tape, Gain Scale, Simplify Management
Enterprises are increasingly finding the need to extract and analyze archived data. Compliance regulations have made data accessibility and retention a business requirement.
The Challenge with Traditional Data Archiving
Traditional data archiving moves inactive data to a lower cost medium. While that sounds like a good way to save money on high cost storage, there are many problems with it
Complexity
Traditional archive adds management and infrastructure complexity. And when used across multiple locations, that complexity grows
Storage Bloat
As multiple redundant or similar files are archived, the archive can suffer from storage bloat. The rate of unstructured storage growth compounds this
Not Accessible
When an enterprise needs to extract data from the archive, it can be a slow, difficult process. This is particularly true of data stored off site on tape or other media
Active Archiving in the Cloud
Panzura Freedom Archive™ keeps 100% of data available, while intelligently moving cold data to less expensive storage. Traditional archive uses a complex and expensive system of data tiering hardware and software to achieve this. Panzura solves this by consolidating archive data in the cloud, where it is affordable, permanently available, and protected by cloud durability.
Freedom Archive Delivers Value to Your Enterprise
Reduce Storage Footprint
Data is deduplicated and compressed before it is sent to the cloud, reducing the total footprint and associated storage costs
Gain Cloud Scale
Purchase cloud capacity as it is needed and scale on-demand. Cloud storage can easily scale to meet the needs of any organization
Eliminate Tape Backup
Archiving data directly to the cloud means that organizations never have to send tapes offsite again
Simplify Management
Tape management is simplified as archive data is consolidated in the cloud. Fast metadata access means data recovery is quick and easy.
