• Other large scale tape environments, such as:
– High-speed data-save operations where backup windows are critical and large
amounts of data are archived to tape.
– Large-scale automated tape installations where performance, capacity, and
reliability are requirements.
– Large-scale mass data archive applications where massive amounts of data
need to be quickly saved to tape for storage and later recalled (examples
include the seismic industry, data warehousing, and record management
applications).
– Environments where both streaming and start/stop (access), large and small
file workloads are required.
Other target customers for the TS1140 Tape Drive are encryption opportunities in
medium to large enterprises in the financial sector, government and public sector,
and other industries that must protect their customer tape data from loss or theft.
