The Active Archive Alliance today announced that BDT Media Automation (BDT), a leading global developer and manufacturer of data storage systems for data centers and the cloud, has joined the organization. The Active Archive Alliance comprises industry-leading storage and data management vendors that collectively support and promote the use of active archives in delivering modern solutions to meet today's data growth challenges.
"We're pleased to have BDT join the Active Archive Alliance and showcase their role in the data management and active archive ecosystem," said Rich Gadomski, co-chairperson of the Active Archive Alliance and director of channel sales and new business development at FUJIFILM North America Corp., Data Storage Solutions. "Active archives are needed more than ever in this era of explosive data growth including AI related data storage requirements. The storage of cold and infrequently accessed data within an active archive makes a considerable difference in lowering both costs and energy consumption."
Active archives enable reliable, online, and cost-effective access to data throughout its life by helping to move data to the appropriate storage tiers, minimizing costs while maintaining ease of user accessibility. They are ideal for organizations with large volumes of data and those with regulatory requirements for storing, retaining and releasing data. These include industries such as finance, video surveillance, healthcare, high-performance computing, scientific research, media and entertainment and more.
BDT offers OEM partners reliable and efficient solutions for the secure, long-term archiving of large volumes of data. The company's products include discrete tape libraries from 8-24 slots as well as scalable tape libraries with up to 1,115 slots per 48" IT rack.
"Our customers can store or archive large amounts of data securely and for the long term, preventing data loss effectively and efficiently," said Marc Steinhilber, CEO of BDT Media Automation. "We're excited to work with members of the Active Archive Alliance in providing end users with technical expertise and guidance to design and implement modern active archive strategies."
