WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif--February 5, 2007 --CaminoSoft Corp. (OTC.BB:CMSF - News), a leading provider of tiered storage solutions for Microsoft Windows 2000/2003 and Novell NetWare environments, today announced that its Managed Server HSM™ software has been certified to operate with storage arrays offered by RAID Inc., a leading manufacturer of custom storage solutions and managed storage services.
“CaminoSoft’s storage management software, combined with RAID’s Magellan, X-class and Falcon series products, provides solutions that scale from small/medium business to enterprise-level applications. These cost-effective solutions enable organizations to address the rapid expansion of data and management of storage resources,” said Richard Krueger, vice president of marketing & alliances at CaminoSoft. “We are pleased to establish this partnership, which enhances the market potential for Managed Server HSM software and RAID’s high-performance, high-capacity storage lineup.”
CaminoSoft’s Managed Server HSM software allows organizations to establish comprehensive administrative policies that reclaim primary storage resources for active files, dramatically reduce backup and recovery time, control file retention, and facilitate governance and regulatory compliance. With CaminoSoft’s server-based solutions, administrators can readily configure policies governing usage of virtualized storage pools without user interruption or involvement. In the background, Managed Server HSM automatically monitors server volume activity and dynamically assesses watermarks against real-time storage utilization to make decisions about migrating files that are infrequently accessed.
The result is that organizations can now automate file migration and retrieval from primary to secondary and tertiary storage, gain immediate and seamless access to migrated files, and achieve full administrative control over migration activity via policy maintenance. This operation is transparent from the perspective of system users,
who continue to read and write files on the same servers, volumes and folders as they always have. See [Managed Server HSM Software]
“We are excited to partner with CaminoSoft to create a seamless ILM solution. Users can now combine our enterprise class storage with CaminoSoft’s Managed Server HSM software, with several excellent options including fibre channel, SAS and SATA solutions that deliver storage scalability, redundancy and speed to dramatically reduce backup and recovery time,” stated Robert Picardi, chief operating officer of RAID Incorporated.
RAID’s Magellan series addresses the unique requirements of long-term data storage expansion by offering administrators a modular approach to deploying tiered storage solutions for applications that require storage performance, high availability and cost-effectiveness. Customers can increase capacity as businesses grow with the option to add up to 60 drives. The Magellan offers a SAS/FC host and SAS/SATA drives, which can be configured to balance performance with capacity -- offering a flexible, cost-effective storage system with no single point of failure. RAID also offers more robust fibre channel solutions with its X-class line of products, as well as its popular Falcon series SATA-2 line of storage. “Partnering with CaminoSoft was an important initiative for both RAID and its customers who are looking at solutions for managing their data. RAID’s storage solutions, combined with CaminoSoft’s Managed Server HSM software, provide an intelligent solution to meet the ongoing challenges of data storage management,” stated Picardi.
