Scalar i500 - The Intelligent Scalable Midrange Tape Library
Created for midrange storage environments, Scalar i500 tape libraries
feature integrated iLayer software to dramatically improve the
management, proactive monitoring, and security of your growing
organization’s backup process.
With advanced diagnostic services, library resource management, and
I/O management inside the library, iLayer monitors itself, so you don’t
have to worry about failed backups or restores. Plus, Scalar i500 tape
libraries are simple to install, operate, and maintain and can
accommodate continual data growth, expanding to up to 643 TB of
capacity.
The Scalar i500 includes Quantum’s iLayer software with proactive
monitoring and remote diagnostics that can reduce management time
by 75%, reduce service calls by 50%, and shorten issue resolution
times by 30%. Its capacity-on-demand scalability lets it grow
non-disruptively with users’ data.
Security features like access control and FIPS compliant encryption key
management safeguards your data while it’s in the library, after export,
and when it’s offsite. And the Scalar i500 is designed to integrate easily
with disk backup, making it the perfect library for tiered storage
architectures. With the Scalar i500, IT managers can be assured they
have a scalable, reliable, secure, high-performance archive and
effective long term protection for years into the future, no matter how
their storage needs evolve
Proactive remote diagnostics and relational diagnostics through innovative iLayer software
Enhanced encryption solutions to secure your data
Common management and service provided across disk and tape solutions
Rack-mount design for easy and flexible installation options
Retains up to 643 TB of data
