Scalar Tape Libraries

Low-cost, secure storage for long-term data archiving and cyber protection.

Low-Cost, Reliable Long-Term Data Storage for Massive Data Growth

Tape is the most cost-effective, secure storage option that requires very little power to store data for long periods and is a crucial component in the fight against cyber threats. Tape has also emerged as a key part of cloud and hyperscale infrastructures because it provides secure, long-term storage for compliance, digital media, and image archiving. As a result, the largest data centers on the planet are using tape extensively.

The Benefits of a Scalar Tape Library

Lowest-Cost Long-Term Storage

LTO tape continues to provide the lowest-cost long-term storage solution, and for PB-scale data sets is a fraction of the cost of public cloud and other cold storage solutions. Scalar Tape systems further reduce total cost with space efficient designs, iLayer Proactive diagnostics and analytics, automated monitoring and reporting, and integration with cloud-based AIOps software to reduce administrative time.

Easily Manage Data Growth

A modular design that simplifies adding storage slots for capacity growth and drives for greater performance. Capacity-on-Demand (CoD) slot licensing provides a level of storage granularity to help you better manage your storage costs in a pay-as-you-grow approach with capacity scaling from 1,875 TB up to 1,057 PB based on LTO-10 compressed capacity.

Ensure Data Integrity and Securityt

Our Scalar Tape Libraries are the most secure tape libraries on the market, with over 25 unique features and capabilities that form a comprehensive security framework which controls system access, provides system monitoring and event detection, data security and encryption, and unique features for cyber protection and data integrity.
