  • Mainframe Virtual Tape: Improve Operational Efficiencies and Mitigate Risk in the Data Center (1.0 MB)
  • The role of tape in mainframe environments is quite varied as it is relied upon for backup data, archival data, data base log files and mission critical transaction files. These applications highlight the contrast between the perception and reality of using tape for storage, and offer an opportunity for significant improvements in operational efficiency and risk mitigation when implementing a virtual tape storage strategy.

    New EMC mainframe VTL solutions provide enterprise data centers with lower tape processing costs, improved end-user service levels, innovative disaster recovery alternatives, and the ability to include deduplication and compliant (WORM) storage in the mainframe environment.

    Attend this session to learn about:

    • The benefits of implementing a VTL in mainframe environments
    • New EMC solutions focused on increasing operational efficiency and mitigating risk in your data center
    • How EMC customers have realized the benefits of mainframe virtual tape in their organizations
