Curious as to how IBM is currently contributing to the success of the tape data storage market? You may be surprised at their effort to keep tape alive and well for years to come!

In May of 2011, IBM announced the release of “Big Data,” which now actively competes with EMC World. IBM’s Big Data products will include tape storage backup, enhanced archiving, and deduplication in an effort to make the process of storing massive amounts of data in an efficient manner.

IBM’s goal is to offer a wide variety of ways to store, archive, and protect various data types. Thus, it can be said that the name “Big Data” serves to encompass more than data volume. Additionally, IBM is working to make the accessing of data easier and more streamlined with their new line of products.

IBM’s Historical Commitment to Tape

Are you aware of the fact that IBM has been in the tape business since 1952? Back in those days, IBM invented magnetic tape. Because of its early commitment to tape, IBM has worked to develop digital data storage products that support tape. Much of their present commitment to tape can be pinpointed to IBM’s understanding that between 50 and 60 percent of the world’s businesses utilize a mix of digital and tape for data storage.

According to Doug Balog, General Manager of IBM’s Storage Business Unit, “IBM has an edge over storage vendors like EMC that don’t support tape. Tape and disk can be used together to deliver clients tired storage that enables them to store data within the different tiers based on their data priorities.”

This is enough reason to reveal the legitimacy of tape in today’s world. Plus, it is a major sign that companies such as IBM, Sony, HP, and Quantum are putting millions of dollars into tape advancement for the coming years.

IBM Big Data Specifics

IBM’s release of the TS3500 Tape Library in 2011 made it the industry’s first tape library system providing more than 2.7 exabytes available! Just to give you an idea as to how expansive an exabyte is, it is represented as 1,000,000,000,000,000,000! According to Balog, that is three times all mobile data generated in the US in 2010.

This means that IBM is providing unlimited storage within a single tape system. It utilizes cartridges that hold a total of 4TB of data each and is capable of holding thousands of cartridges at a time.

It must be made clear that not every TS3500 owner does not utilize its full capability, rather most will grow their use of the system and build it out as needed. Additionally, they can make use of a wide variety of features including the IBM Linear Tape File System Library Edition (LTFS LE). This makes the expansive library easier to use through indexing, searches, and shared data stored on Generation 5 LTO tape.

Who Would Utilize Such a Huge Library?

There are a number of large organizations that make use of the TS3500 including oil and gas exploration companies, weather-prediction services, and other organizations needing to maintain massive amounts of data.

IBM, Clustering and More

Just when you thought that its advancements couldn’t get any more impressive, the company also shared that it has made major advancements in storage clustering IT with the Scale-Out Network Attached Storage (Sonas) system and Information Archive. SONAS is now capable of being scaled out to more than 14 petabytes of clustered storage.

Also, the IBM TS7700 Virtual Tape Library product line has seen a major upgrade to double the number of virtual tape cartridges. This means that it can now hold an amazing 2 million!! More news is certain to come out of the IBM headquarters in the coming months. We’ll keep you posted!

If you have been on the fence about investing in tape for data storage, you may be interested to learn that Sony has recently decided to license the soon to be released LTO-6 technology.

A few days ago, Sony announced that it has signed a licensing contract with the Linear Tape Open (LTO) consortium, which includes the brain trust of HP, IBM, and Quantum.

With the current economy and the rapid density growth of tape, Sony has decided that tape is a solid investment for corporations around the world. In fact, the LTO-6 will boast of 3.2TB of raw data storage capacity, 8TB with 2.5.1 compression, and 210MB/Sec transfer rate.

This makes tape a powerful choice for organizations that realize how expensive disk storage can be for storing large amounts of legacy data. On the other hand, the offline nature of tape helps reduce energy costs. Plus, you can’t get more durable than tape, as it can sit for decades and still work perfectly when important data is needed for recall.

When the LTO-6 hits the market, it will mark the sixth generation of LTO tape made available to organizations and more than double the amount of storage currently available with LTO-5 devices. In order to make such an amazing jump in density, Sony will utilize a newly developed magnetic particle and other key manufacturing advances which have yet to be disclosed.

For tape fans who like the LTO-5’s Linear Tape File System (LTFS), they will be thrilled that the all-new LTO-6 will also include the feature. The specs surrounding the LTO-6 have yet to be revealed, but it is very probable that there will be other groundbreaking features included.

The LTO consortium’s primary concern is to continually develop tape that is easy to utilize, while providing a safe and effective manner in which to store proprietary data. In an effort to assure the market that tape will be around for years to come, the consortium has already announced that the LTO-7 and LTO-8 will be released in 2014 and 2016 respectively. The LTO-7 will boast of 6.4TB of raw data storage, and the LTO-8 will offer an amazing 12.8TB!

It is probable that Sony jumped at the idea of developing a line of LTO-6 products because of the LTO’s commitment to density growth in the coming years.

For those who have doubted tape’s longevity, the above news will definitely provide a new perspective!

As we promised in the previous article ‘Visit RYM at Storage Visions Conference Jan. 8-9th’  below are our thoughts on this event.

It was the first time we decided to attend this Convention, and as an exhibitor and sponsor, we really liked it. Once again, meeting our current clients and potential new ones is an experience we cannot get enough of. Indeed, sharing our business face to face is something we enjoy. The visitors to our booth were really interested in our services, and we secured some nice business relationships moving forward. So good news: we are already recycling media from clients we met at this show since we got back two days ago.

We explained to everyone who came talk to us that our first priority was the secure data erasure. We also assured them about our certified tape media that is guaranteed equal to new performance with a lifetime warranty.

What was different from other Conventions was that many of the people who attended were in the press industry, must be because of CES the following day. But of course there were also end-users and some IT professionals like ourselves.

To show you what you missed, we took some photos so that it helps you get an idea of this event.

Leave us a comment if you have a personal review of this Convention, if you were there and what you thought about it!

In today’s world, organizations are quickly both growing their corporate data volumes and are becoming more concerned about security.

In their effort to manage massive amounts of data and keep it secure, IT managers are working day and night to find ways to ensure in-time data availability.

As technology is continually progressing, a growing number of large and medium sized organizations are tackling such challenges with HP’s ultra-high capacity LTO Ultrium 5 backup system. HP’s system offers the following features:

• Simplified data management

• Efficient storage/retrieval of huge data amounts under increased workloads

• Dynamic data rate matching for faster backups

• Dual media partitioning system for easy use

• Low-cost per GB in compressed mode = less than 5 cents

Because of its amazing capabilities and low-cost, many emerging and budget conscious organizations have chosen the system.

Additionally, the distinguishing feature of the HP LTO 5 Ultrium, which has IT managers reeling, is the dual media partitioning system. Also, for the first time a tape system works very similarly to a USB flash drive! Administrators can drag and drop or cut and paste data on to the LTO5 tape cartridge for ease of use.

The HP LTO5’s capacity sitting is an impressive 1.5TB and 140 MB/sec native speed. This backs up tech experts’ claims that tape density continues to grow exponentially. Back up capacity is an impressive 3 TB of data. The result of such capacity is a reduced number of tapes needed for storage, as compared to a few years ago. This is significant, as tape detractors often referred to the large amounts of shelf spaced for its housing.

There are no worries where the installation of an HP LTO5 system is concerned. Organizations can choose from two different models – one is full-height and the other half-height. Once installed, the system can be used for network back-ups, data mining, video archiving, complex IT infrastructures, and more. When tapes are full, the cartridges can be either stored on or off-site for years to come. They are extremely durable and can be recalled for use at any time.

LTO5 cartridges can be both bought new and/or used from leading tape recycling firm Recycle Your Media. The benefits of either purchasing recycled tape or selling used tape are twofold: (1) It makes tapes a true moneysaving investment, and (2) It decreases the number of tapes dumped into landfills each year.

Plus, for organizations looking to upgrade from an older tape system to the HP LTO5, it is a money saving proposal to worth with Recycle Your Media. Legacy tapes can be sold for cash and then be applied to the overall cost of newer tape. For more information on the recycling process, please call 949-757-0100.
