StorageTek 5800 System

May 2008

Are you juggling millions of unstructured files in your fixed content storage system? You're probably grappling with several issues: data sprawl, poor search, slow retrieval, limited metadata, growing storage database licensing fees, and nagging data integrity declines. You can solve many of these issues with the Sun StorageTek 5800 System.

The Sun StorageTek 5800 system is the first integrated, fixed-content archiving system built using open source software, and is excellent for preservation and digital archiving. The system includes extensive metadata facilities, extreme data protection against data corruption and data loss, and enhanced reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS).

Now, for a limited time, save big on this cost-effective solution — priced especially for educational institutions.
