FileTek to Integrate StorHouse® with
EMC Centera™ Content Addressed Storage

New York, New York (April 29, 2002) - FileTek, Inc., a data storage and access management systems provider, today announced that it has entered into a technology agreement with EMC Corporation to integrate FileTek's StorHouse® data management software product with the newly announced EMC Centera™ content addressed storage (CAS) solution. The integration is expected to be finalized and solutions generally available in the third quarter.

EMC Centera represents new software-driven storage architecture, specifically built to address the unique information storage requirements of long-lasting, unchanging digital objects, or fixed content.

When integrated with Centera, StorHouse will provide a cost-effective online data storage system with relational access to large amounts of rich media. StorHouse and Centera customers will benefit by the ability to use standard SQL queries to quickly access specific fixed content data stored on disk. In addition, StorHouse provides a standard file system interface, which uses its relational database to manage billions of files in petabyte-size storage systems and can provide both SQL and file system access to the same information.

"We're very excited about supporting EMC's efforts to provide economical online availability to rich media objects," said Dave Daughters, FileTek's Vice President of Marketing and Business Development. "FileTek's tradition of giving customers economical access to business-critical information fits well within our new EMC relationship."

"Centera and StorHouse are a great match," said Tom Heiser, EMC's Vice President and General Manager, Content Addressed Storage. "Both products enhance each other's strengths and bring to market a substantial value in data storage and access. EMC looks forward to our combined technical and marketing efforts."

FileTek's flagship product, StorHouse, transparently integrates with the most popular databases, such as Oracle®, DB2 UDB™, and SQL Server™, and supports industry-standard gateways and data access methods. For more information, e-mail info@filetek.com or call +1 301-517-1823.
