Quantum Tape Library - Scalar with LTO-8 Capacity and Performance Enhancement
Solves Big Data Challenges Through Storage Density, Low Power Consumption, and Innovative Ease of Management
Solves Big Data Challenges Through Storage Density, Low Power Consumption, and Innovative Ease of Management
Quantum announced that it will apply LTO Ultrium format generation 8 technology to its Scalar tape library and StorNext AEL archive systems starting in December.
The latest LTO-8 tape expands the value of tape storage, which is characterized by low cost and high efficiency, with twice the capacity of LTO-7 and 20% performance improvement. It is a solution suitable for unstructured data that has been rapidly increasing recently.
Key features of the Quantum Scalar tape library include: ▲A converged design with embedded computing capabilities (optional) that stores large volumes of data closer to applications and reduces network infrastructure load. ▲EDLM policy-based media status inspection and automated data migration provide self-healing and self-protecting backup and archive capabilities. ▲In-library vaulting through Active Vault enhances security and content access while reducing costs. ▲Library operation automation through RESTful web services makes repetitive tasks easier to automate.

Based on Quantum-certified LTO-8 media, Quantum provides a multi-tier solution through these technological enhancements to address continuous data growth and data protection issues in fields such as media and entertainment, cloud-based cold storage, video surveillance, university research, and autonomous vehicles.
The combination of Scalar and StorNext AEL tape automation with LTO-8 technology provides superior storage density compared to legacy tape technologies, and the LTO bit error rate of Quantum-certified media is equivalent to existing media. LTO technology is suitable for enterprises using inexpensive "big data" storage for long-term archival or using tape as an offline copy to protect data against cyber attacks such as ransomware.

LTO-8 technology will first be applied in December 2017 to Quantum's Scalar i6000, Scalar i6, Scalar i3, and Scalar i500 libraries and Quantum-certified media. Subsequently, it will be applied to other platforms following device verification.
