PoINT Storage Manager

PoINT Storage Manager: Efficient tiered storage management and archiving

Physical storage is a significant cost factor in the IT considering the continuously growing requirements regarding performance, availability and capacity. PoINT Storage Manager decreases acquisition cost by combining different storage systems within an automated Multi Tier Storage Architecture. In addition, PoINT Storage Manager also decreases backup and recovery times and therefore cuts down corresponding cost through integrated replication and archiving. Replacement of obsolete storage systems, which is quite often very expensive, as well as their integration into a new storage system (storage consolidation) is an integral part of this "software only" solution. Hence, PoINT Storage Manager reduces future migration cost already at this early stage.
