CAMINOSOFT OFFERS COMPREHENSIVE TAPE LIBRARY SUPPORT FOR THE COMPANY'S INFORMATION LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS

December 17, 2003 
WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--December 17, 2003-- CaminoSoft Corp. CMSF, a leading provider of Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) solutions, for Novell NetWare and Microsoft Windows 2000 environments, announced today the availability of comprehensive tape library management support for its ILM offerings.

Nearly all organizations are experiencing explosive storage growth, driven specifically by space-hungry applications like email, computer-aided design, graphics and multimedia, document imaging, and user-controlled directories. While merely keeping pace with demand is an important and daunting issue for IT professionals, managing the data intelligently, growing the storage infrastructure cost-effectively, maintaining data retention compliance with myriad industry regulations, and providing users with immediate access to all of their files have become the real challenges.

“CaminoSoft’s Managed Server HSM™ Library Edition provides a simple, cost-effective solution for handling the complexities of data storage management,” said Neil Murvin, Vice President of Research & Development for CaminoSoft. “The Library Edition offers all of the features of our standard Managed Server HSM software, including: intuitive, centralized Windows-based administration; advanced data migration, retention, and deletion policies; and support for off-the-shelf IDE RAID devices, NAS appliances, SAN arrays, and general purpose file servers.”


Murvin continued: “The Library Edition extends this robust functionality by providing the additional capability to migrate files further along a storage hierarchy to popular tape libraries, autoloaders, and jukeboxes from leading vendors such as Hewlett Packard, StorageTek, ADIC, and Overland Data. As an organization’s requirements expand, additional peripheral devices and/or library media can be easily added to the storage pool. The combined options supported by the Library Edition provide an ILM storage hierarchy capable of virtually infinite growth, increased data availability, and rigorous regulatory compliance over a lifecycle.”
