Virtualization of Tape Storage

Overview

Disk-based virtual tape backup devices, when combined with removable tape for archiving, are a particularly effective data protection strategy, delivering the very tangible benefits of both disk and tape for securing data efficiently and cost-effectively at all points in its lifecycle. This paper discusses the advantages of a D2D2T strategy in reference to Cybernetics' miSAN V Series, iSAN V Series, and HSTC models.
