If you asked Spectra to define the term “data resiliency,” we’d say that it refers to the ability of data and its infrastructure to “spring back” in situations where it is compromised. Data resiliency relates to digitally preserving organizational assets in the event of a natural disaster or data center corruption by means of redundant components and data availability. It is essentially an organization’s ability to avoid unexpected disruptions to data workflows and stay up and running.

Scott Tewksbury
Senior Talent Advisor
“As a senior talent advisor for Spectra logic, I recruit new talent for all departments, from Manufacturing and Engineering to Sales and Finance, and everything in between. One of my most memorable projects was being assigned the task of filling 10 open positions for Software Development Engineers in a very short period of time when I first arrived at Spectra. This included recruiting, sourcing, interview scheduling, and job offering. Today, along with the people and culture, the best part of my job is making a difference in people’s lives by recruiting them and watching them thrive professionally in their new roles.”

Mark Wright

“I’ve spent the last 23 years at Spectra, and still enjoy all the face-to-face interactions I have with customers, partners and colleagues.

A Spectra Rep listens to the technical needs of a customer, presents viable solutions, determines budgets, fends off competitive options, and ultimately helps customers solve their tough business challenges.

Spectra Logic: A niche storage empire
Over 43 years Spectra Logic has built a niche tape, archive, nearline, object, on-premises, and multi-cloud data management empire.
"When we set out on our search to find a storage solution capable of preserving Imperial War Museums’ substantial digital archive, there were specific criteria on which we were not willing to compromise. Spectra met all of our requirements and then some, and now continues to deliver with StorCycle’s storage lifecycle management capabilities."
– Ian Crawford, Chief Information Officer, Imperial War Museums
"We appreciate the collaborative relationship and Spectra’s attentiveness to incorporating our feedback and ideas into solution enhancements. Our continuing investment into Spectra technology on behalf of our organization has proven invaluable in helping us implement the next level architectural model taking us into the future."
– Eric Grau, Manager – Media Asset Management, Joyce Meyer Ministries
"The new library has just shy of 14,000 slots for tapes. We were able to easily move all 70 petabytes of existing data into the new system and have grown to 104 petabytes in size and have plenty of room for at least a year or two before we have to start thinking about expanding."
– HPC Linux Systems Engineer, OLCF
"We have to store a lot of data for long periods of time. A single microscope can capture 10TB of data in as little as a few hours, and a published breakthrough on cancer research can take anywhere from a few years to a couple of decades. The BlackPearl and tape solution from Spectra provides a scalable and cost-effective way to store multiple data workflows with varying retention requirements."
– Jeffrey McDonald, director of IT, Hormel Institute at University of Minnesota
