Media-Alliance to support DiskArchive ALTO-100

Media-Alliance has added support for the ALTO-100 Disk Archive to its existing Tape Archive capability.
|
Media-Alliance is the first Media Asset Management supplier to integrate new technology developed by DiskArchive Corporation within its MediaXplorer solution. ALTO-100 is an archive based on Hard Disk Drives as an alternative to data tapes which is set to radically change the ways in which Broadcast and Media companies archive their assets.
DiskArchive's ALTO-100 offers an innovative approach which is more affordable both in capital cost and total cost of ownership. It is more secure and offers faster access to data than solutions based on tape. With the introduction of ALTO-100 there is no reason to adopt a tape based archive in a new installation.
ALTO-100 offers a storage capacity of about 100TB in a 5RU or 4RU rack mountable chassis, corresponding to 1 Petabyte (1,000 Terabytes) of data in a standard equipment rack giving a storage density roughly 4 times greater than a tape library. Unlike a Tape Archive, ALTO-100 requires very little maintenance and is both economical and environmentally friendly to run since disks that are not in use are switched off automatically.
At IBC 2010 Media-Alliance will unveil several new products and enhancements to its present product line. New products will include PANDORA, an integrated monitoring tool; ORIGIN which offers live, real-time and file based Quality Check and AVIO, a next-generation Ingest Server offering unique features for Enterprise Ingest applications.
