Introduction In the face of rapid data growth, cloud storage offers enterprises the opportunity to reduce not only the capital costs of purchasing storage but also the operational costs of managing it. More and more companies want to migrate their existing applications to the cloud environment, however without affecting the original data infrastructure, it not […]
Hierarchical storage management (HSM) is a data storage technique that automatically moves data between high-cost and low-cost storage media. HSM systems exist because high-speed storage devices, such as solid state drive arrays, are more expensive (per byte stored) than slower devices, such as hard disk drives, optical discs and magnetic tape drives. While it would be ideal to have all data available on high-speed devices all the time, […]
CloudTier Storage Tiering SDK (also Hierarchical Storage Management, HSM) is a data storage technique that automatically moves data between high-cost and low-cost storage media, is the automated progression or demotion of data across different tiers of storage devices and media. The CloudTier Storage Tiering SDK provides you an automatic way of managing and distributing data […]
A cloud archive is storage as a service for long-term data retention. Cloud archiving is a service to move the rarely accessed cold data to the public cloud. Public clouds require no special on-premises hardware or software. An organization can reduce its data center footprint and use less power and cooling resources by storing data […]
Archiving as a service can simplify the process of storing critical data in a secure location where it will be safe for future use. Major cloud storage firms such as AWS and Microsoft Azure offer data backup and archiving services. The flexibility of the archiving-as-a-service model allows them to avoid upfront investments in infrastructure, as […]
Automated Storage Tiering Automated tiered storage (also automated storage tiering) is the automated progression or demotion of data across different tiers (types) of storage devices and media. The movement of data takes place in an automated way with the help of a software or embedded firmware and is assigned to the related media according to […]
Hybrid cloud storage is an approach to managing cloud storage that uses both local and off-site resources. The hybrid cloud storage infrastructure is often used to supplement internal data storage with public cloud storage. Policy engines keep frequently used data on-site while simultaneously moving inactive data to the cloud in a transparent manner. Ideally, a hybrid cloud implementation […]
A cloud storage gateway is a hardware- or software-based appliance located on the customer premises that serves as a bridge between local applications and remote cloud-based storage. A cloud storage gateway provides basic protocol translation and simple connectivity to allow the incompatible technologies to communicate transparently. EaseFilter Cloud Storage Gateway is the service that connects an […]

分層存儲軟件開發包可以為開發雲歸檔軟件提供簡單解決方案，它允許您以無縫、安全和透明的方式將現有的本地應用程序與遠程雲存儲基礎架構集成。雲分層是一種數據存儲技術，可以在高成本的本地存儲和低成本的遠程雲存儲之間自動移動數據，它提供了一個本地雲存儲層，它允許您釋放本地存儲容量，通過移動將較冷的數據輸出到雲存儲，從而減少資本和運營支出。 透明的雲數據文件訪問 通過創建 ILM（信息生命週期管理器）策略，將文件遷移到雲存儲後將創建一個存根文件。存根文件在外觀和行為上都像一個普通文件，它與原始物理文件具有相同的文件屬性（文件大小、創建時間、最後寫入時間、最後訪問時間），同時也保持了原始文件的安全性。存根文件是具有稀疏文件和重分析點屬性的文件，您自定義的標籤數據可以嵌入到存根文件中。存根文件不佔用文件數據的存儲空間，它只保留文件的元數據。當stub文件被訪問時，雲存儲中的文件數據會被透明地回調到存根文件中，您可以根據回調策略對存根文件進行再水化或直接將數據返回給應用程序。 無縫集成雲文件到本地應用程序 我們的 CloudTier Cloud Storage Connect 服務可以將本地軟件設備與基於雲的存儲連接起來，以無縫、安全和透明的方式將您現有的本地應用程序與遠程雲存儲基礎架構集成。遷移您的應用程序不會中斷本地文件到遠程雲存儲，不需要更改您現有的應用程序和基礎架構。 1. 根據文件類型、文件大小、文件屬性設置文件雲遷移策略。 2. 文件遷移到雲存儲後，根據策略創建存根文件，可以釋放本地存儲空間。 3. 通過讀取本地應用程序的存根文件來透明地訪問云存儲。 4. 將數據從遠程雲存儲透明回傳到本地，根據策略為最近訪問的文件重新水化存根文件。 非結構化數據的雲歸檔解決方案 雲歸檔是將數據移動到雲中二級存儲的過程，雲歸檔的潛在好處包括成本更低、訪問更方便、不會中斷和更改現有應用程序和基礎架構。自動將您組織的所有文件存檔、管理和保護到雲端，透明地訪問您的存檔文件。 降低存儲成本：如果您有 2 TB 的昂貴服務器存儲，其中 50% 的數據從未或很少訪問，使用 CloudTier 分層存儲，您可以將 1 TB 的數據傳輸到 NAS 存儲或云存儲，您可以節省 1 TB 的存儲空間SAN RAID 存儲中的空間。 最大化服務器的硬盤可用空間： 在不影響用戶的情況下回收存儲空間。設置策略以自動從文件服務器中刪除舊文件，清理磁盤空間，並用智能快捷方式“存根”替換它們，從存檔中無形地檢索原始文件。 提高效率：當用戶需要這些數據時，可以實時透明地訪問。如果您需要恢復和還原意外刪除或錯誤修改的文件，您可以從存儲庫中還原文件甚至整個文件夾。 減少服務器備份時間和恢復時間，只需要備份經常使用的文件。 提高數據安全性：服務器中的數據可以加密，通過存儲管理軟件訪問這些數據，只有授權用戶才能訪問這些數據，並且可以記錄訪問活動。 為了去除重複數據，存儲服務器只保留單實例。 雲存儲分層的應用實例 雲存儲分層可廣泛應用於電信、政府、石油、醫療等行業。當用戶和應用程序訪問本地存儲中的存根文件時，是完全透明的，系統會自動將數據從遠程存儲服務器恢復回存根文件。網絡附加存儲是可擴展的、分層的存儲產品，為用戶提供了無限的在線數據空間。 醫療保健數據存檔：越來越多的醫療保健提供者需要將患者醫療記錄數據保留多年。當記錄包含高分辨率圖像和超聲內容時，對患者數據的存儲要求會迅速增加。 業務政策強制數據存檔：公司可以在日常運營過程中生成 PB 的數據，以滿足法律合規性要求。 Archive Storage 可以與 ISV […]
Data protection is used to describe both the operational backup of data and business continuity/disaster recovery (BC/DR). Data protection strategies are evolving along two lines: data availability and data management. Data reliability means that data is complete and accurate, and it is a crucial foundation for building data trust across the organization. Ensuring data reliability […]
