**NEW** Hybrid Cloud Storage Solution with Breakthrough Operational CostĪt IBC 20214, DAC will demonstrate a new storage concept which overturns the traditional economic barriers that have made the cloud unaffordable as a storage platform for long form broadcast content in native resolution. ALTO users can populate the EX-60 with locally sourced off-the-shelf disks on a buy-as-you-go basis with any mix of disk size and vendor in any slot, making ALTO highly competitive and totally future-proof for large-scale storage of infrequently accessed material in Content Libraries or Archives. ALTO is a Cold Storage solution that can accommodate up to 300 TB of storage in each 4RU module, with an exceptionally low power dissipation of around 1 watt per Terabyte. The EX-60 meets the growing demand for larger capacity and more densely packed media storage. Alan Hoggarth, Managing Director, Disk Archive CorporationĭAC will unveil the new EX-60 Storage Expansion for the ALTO Archive and Content Library for the first time at IBC 2014. At IBC 2014, we are introducing denser and more efficient storage than ever before and offering new ways to harness public and private cloud storage in cost-effective hybrid solutions. DAC is changing the storage landscape by offering the enormous benefits of a completely tapeless solution for archive and content library storage. Established in 2009, Disk Archive Corporation is a privately-owned company drawing on more than 15 years experience designing, delivering and supporting Media Storage, Media Asset Management and Archive Management solutions.ĭemand for storage is growing exponentially, driven by new high resolution formats, multiple versioning, the greater number of origination sources, higher shooting ratios, and the desire to keep more of the original pre-edit content. Compared to conventional archive systems, ALTO is easier to own and more affordable to operate. ALTO is optimized for longevity, security and performance, with a very low total cost of ownership and low environmental impact. DAC's ALTO archive storage systems use leading-edge disk drive technology to offer performance and economic benefits over Data Tape Libraries, allowing media companies to accommodate new strategies for data protection and complete the transition to fully tapeless operation. develops high capacity, high availability solutions for long-term, large-volume, completely tapeless storage of Media files.

With ALTO drives can be purchased 'as you go' from multiple leading suppliers, in any available capacity, as part of your operational expenses, as your business needs to extra archiving capacity. This REPLICATION technique used in ALTO offers superior user-configurable protection, removable media, and inherent disaster recovery capability by storing non-segmented files that do not happen with alto storage. This means that in an on-premise RAID all the disks must be purchased as part of the initial capital project, from a single vendor and with identical capacity and performance.ĪLTO offers better protection than a RAID array by writing complete data files to multiple locations on different disks, allowing disks to be spun-down safely and offering the additional benefit of removable media. In an era where disk drive technologies and capacities are evolving rapidly, RAID also locks the user into a single disk drive size and type throughout the system. The risk of losing your valuable media and data is tangible as drives start to fail. RAID based storage technology, whether on-premise or in the cloud, has unacceptable vulnerabilities when used with high-capacity disk drives.
