Overview
MagStor is the industry leader in tape backup support for leading service providers and end users. Our years of experience in tape hardware solutions has led us to develop a comprehensive set of solutions for archive data migration, restoration, and assurance services. Tape backup is still recognized as best-in-class for archiving enterprise data due to immunity from cybercrimes, low cost per TB, and long media lifespan. As tape archives age, complications can arise for IT admins needing to respond effectively to restoration requests for compliance, legal, and testing requirements.
Where a tape may no longer be readable or have data corruption issues. We offer data recovery for all types of tape media.
Older generation media is often re-read and rewritten to current formats/generations to extend lifespan by refreshing media.
Because tape capacity increases over time, older archives can be harder to manage. Consolidation migrates archives to higher capacity media.
Prepare your data for e-discovery services with compliant processes and the right partner.
Increase redundancy quickly when prior archiving practices lacked sufficient copies via cloning services for tape.
Migrate tape to new formats or cloud storage to meet strategy requirements or standardize archive technology.
