zantaz mulls bringing tape restoration



Zantaz mulls bringing tape restoration to Europe | Computer Business Review

Archiving vendor Zantaz Inc is considering the introduction of its

backup tape restoration technology to Europe.

Steve King, CEO of the Pleasanton, California-based company, said

it developed its data restoration capability in 2002 and offers it

as a service. He explained that the technology is relevant in

compliance scenarios, where the retention period of data is

changing. "We can take the stuff that held on tape and make it more

readily accessible on disk."

In addition to the increased accessibility, he went on, this

service reduces the risk of holding data on tape, as well as

enabling de-duping.

"It also helps when it comes to the deadline for deleting the data,

because deletion from backup tapes is something of an issue in its

own right," said Glenn Perachio, Zantaz' European sales director.
