Solution: Protect important data permanently
A growing number of companies from the field of industry, the public sector, the healthcare industry, and many more are opting for enaio® each year. What they need from their IT systems varies as much as the organizations themselves do. One thing they do share in common, however, is that they all need a solution for digitally archiving large volumes of data and documents in an audit-proof manner.
In the past, tape jukeboxes had served as the primary solution to this problem. These systems are relatively slow and prone to error, and only offer limited storage capacity. That’s why this technology is losing ground by the day and being replaced by modern hard drive systems. These systems offer clear advantages in terms of access times, the cost of acquiring and operating them, and the time required to administer them.
As the number of applicable laws and compliance regulations increases, companies cannot afford to put off the decision to develop and expand the relevant storage infrastructure. Wherever large amounts of data are involved, digital archiving should take place in separate storage solutions to ensure that the data cannot be altered and sufficient backups are performed.
