StorHouse with MAID Technology - Leveraging COPAN Systems Revolution 200T for More Reliable, Scalable, and Affordable Data Aging

Download a PDF version of this data sheet.

Data-intensive government agencies and top-tier companies worldwide rely on StorHouse® data and access management systems from FileTek to manage their increasing volumes of unstructured content and relational data. StorHouse is the trusted solution of choice because of its virtually unlimited scalability, open architecture, support of compliant media, and proven economic benefits. In addition, StorHouse optimizes access performance of alternative storage media such as ATA disk and tape, and it is the only system that can manage relational and standard file system data in a single repository.

Now, by implementing the Revolution 200T Massive Array of Idle Disks (MAID) technology from COPAN Systems, FileTek redefines the optimal cost-performance storage architecture. By closing the access gap between ATA disk and tape, StorHouse provides the performance and reliability of RAID at the cost and scalability of high-capacity tape.

Figure 1 illustrates this new StorHouse architecture.

Why StorHouse and COPAN MAID?
With the Revolution 200T as its principal storage layer, StorHouse provides an online repository of unstructured content and relational data with:

  • Sub-second average access time to all primary data

  • Dramatic lifecycle cost savings over alternative content addressed storage (CAS) or ATA RAID/tape solutions

  • Optimized performance through drive spin-up and spin-down control

  • RAID reliability and data protection

  • Automatic replication and backup/recovery, including compliant media

  • Ensured business continuity

  • Massive scalability to multiple petabytes and beyond

  • Enterprise-wide data sharing from Windows®, UNIX®, and mainframe platforms

  • Simplified system administration


In addition, unlike competitive solutions for storing and managing fixed content, StorHouse supports standard (open) interfaces, which eliminate the need for applications to write to a proprietary application program interface (API).
