Quantum Tape Library i40/i80 Comparison with other Tape Library.
And please find the some of the
Problem which Tape admin faces and their solution via Installing Quantum Tape
Solutions.
Some
Common challenges and their Solution via Quantum tape Libraries.
1. The amount
of data we have to protect is growing we don’t know how much capacity will be
needed in 3 year.
Sol: The Scalar i40/i80 products provide market
leading investment protection with Capacity-on-Demand (COD) scalability – this
allows you to simply expand your capacity 60% through a software license –
there is no hardware to purchase or install, saving you time and money.
Quantum tape library in i40 gives you first 25 slots
and then with COD license you can grow to 40 slots, no need to buy new hardware.
2. We do not
have large technical staff- we cannot afford to spend time on managing a
complex automation product.
Sol: The Scalar i40/i80 simplifies everything from
initial setup and on-going management to adding capacity over time. With over
30,000 iLayer libraries shipped, the iLayer management software has shown to
reduce management time by over 50% in most instances.

Management time by over 50%
3. We do not
have technical staff onsite- how do we simply swap the correct tapes for
offsite disaster recovery protection with our non-technical resources?
Sol: The Scalar i40/i80 has
large import/export (I/E) slots to simplify the exchange of media for offsite
disaster recovery. Administrative personnel can simply replace tapes placed in
the I/E slot for offsite storage, without complicated commands and
without access to the internal library tapes – ensuring only the correct tapes
are removed and the backup operations continue without interference.
Quantum i40 have 5 I/E slots which will help you to
exchange of media for offsite disaster recovery.
4. We spend too
much time dealing with failed backup jobs- what’s available to reduce this
issue for us.
Sol: The iLayer feature in Scalar i40/i80 proactively
monitors events inside the library and sends email alerts to assigned personnel
and/or Quantum service to ensure the library is not the cause of a failed
backup or restore – iLayer has shown to reduce service calls by 50%.

proactively monitors events inside the library by sending mails and
reduces service calls by 50%
5. We need to protect our data from getting
into the wrong hands both from a government compliance concern and from a
corporate security concern.
Sol: The Scalar i40/i80
support the highest level of encryption, AES-256 bit encryption standard, to
ensure regulatory compliance and sensitive company data is protected, even
while being stored offsite
Quantum i40 AES -256 encryption will protect
your data.
