Strategic partnership delivers easy-to-consume, highly cost-effective tape-based solution to archive data at scale without the need for special skills, large capital investments or on-premises infrastructure
BOULDER, Colo. and TUSTIN, Calif., May 14, 2024 – Spectra Logic®, a global leader in data management and data storage solutions, and Geyser Data, an innovative provider of sustainable cloud archive solutions, today announced a strategic partnership to jointly create and deliver the industry’s first tape-as-a-service (TaaS) offering.
Did you know that according to the International Energy Agency, data centers globally consume about 200 terawatt-hours of electricity annually, roughly one percent of the world’s total energy supply?
While cloud storage, disk, and flash drives are popular data storage solutions, magnetic tape remains an unbeatable option for long-term data preservation and archiving. Thanks to its cost-effectiveness and durability, tape remains one of the most reliable methods for keeping data safe for decades to come. But not all tapes are created equal. When it comes to high-quality tape media, Spectra Certified Media takes things to the next level.
