Spectra Dedupes With FalconStor

CHICAGO -- Spectra Logic, the data storage innovator, has signed a joint partnership agreement with FalconStor Software Inc., where Spectra will integrate FalconStor Virtual Tape Library and deduplication software on its nTier Intelligent Secondary Storage (ISS) appliances. The bundled solution eliminates storage of redundant data on the nTier disk backup target while maintaining integration with the tape archive solution. Spectra Logic pre-configures and optimizes the nTier Deduplication feature to ensure it arrives ready to deploy, saving customers' hours of installation and configuration time.

"Spectra Logic is well established in disk and tape library-based data protection, backup and archive," said Bernie Wu, vice president of business development at FalconStor. "We are pleased to partner with Spectra and look forward to working with them to provide customers with easy to deploy, highly scalable, enterprise-proven virtual tape technology."
