Software vendor Arkeia will offer a sneak preview of its yet-to-be-launched EdgeFort appliance at SNW. EdgeFort, which is Arkeia's first hardware product, contains disk-to-disk-to-tape software, a VTL, and encryption. Dave Elliott, Arkeia's vice president of marketing, told Byte and Switch that the EdgeFort devices are aimed squarely at remote offices. "With this architecture, you don't need anyone locally to install or manage the backup software, or manage the daily backups," he says.
The 1U EdgeFort 100 is intended for disk-based backup, whereas the 2U EdgeFort 200 contains both disk and tape. Both devices will be available later in Q2, with pricing for the 100 likely to be below $3,000 and the 200 priced somewhere between $6,000 and $8,000.
