StorHouse:

StorHouse is an intelligent, hardware-independent, storage virtualization and data management platform for archiving, retrieving, and backing up large volumes of relational and file-based information. The system supports an automatically managed pool of traditional and alternative storage devices, including tape, disk, solid state devices, and most other generally available storage technologies. Enterprises primarily deploy StorHouse as an integral component of an overall enterprise storage infrastructure for large-scale active archive applications. The system also supports database extension systems, information lifecycle management initiatives, digital preservation programs, and native file format backups of terabytes to petabytes of data residing on operational systems.

StorHouse features include:

• All-in-one platform functionality that provides both archive and backup capabilities in a single system
• An industry-standard relational file system layer that archives, retrieves, and/or backs up any format of unstructured data in native file format with no need for application modifications
• Comprehensive SQL, ODBC, ESQL, and bulk data loader/unloader interfaces as well as integrated connectivity to Oracle, SQL Server, IBM DB2 UDB, and SAP
• Scalability to trillions of files and multiple petabytes of managed data with no performance degradation
• A native file format backup approach that provides self-service access to information and eliminates the need for legacy data re-staging and restoration
• Virtualized storage that concurrently uses multiple media types such as disk and tape to lower the total cost of data ownership and allows organizations to control data storage by creating rules about how information is stored based on frequency of access and retrieval time requirements
• Automated system, storage, and data management, including storage allocation and control as well as data migration, replication, backup, recovery, and retention
• Active content validation and repair processes to ensure archive integrity and reliability

• Easy incorporation of higher-capacity and more advanced technologies as they become available with no performance degradation or system downtime to ensure future accessibility of current data

• User-friendly, browser-based management tools that automate many routine system administration tasks
