Media Tape Storage

DataSpace have developed a range of offsite backup and media vaulting services that ensure the safe protection of a clients’ vital backup from the time they pop out of the on-site backup drive through to the time when the tape has passed its’ active life threshold.

Working closely with a clients’ IT managers, DataSpace can offer advice and assistance on all aspects of backup vaulting whether using stand alone tape cycles or GFS (Grandfather-Father-Son) or Tower of Hanoi cycles Dataspace media managers have the knowledge and experience to guide clients through an effective backup routine to ensure full data recovery in the event of a disaster or data loss.

Once registered to the advanced bar code tracking system all tapes/discs are monitored for movement and when delivered back to a client as part of cycle they are registered to an authorised user of the system. When a backup cycle encompasses one or more tapes they can be registered as a set of information and will always be retrieved as a complete set of information rather than individual tapes – an essential feature for larger clients operating SAP systems with SOX compliance issue to be upheld.
