SGI has added a range of storage archive solutions with the acquisition of COPAN Systems for $US2 million.
COPAN storage solutions are designed to provide Disk-to-Disk and Virtual Tape Library (VTL) capabilities for cost-effective management of large data environments.
SGI acquired the assets with the goal of expanding SGI’s storage portfolio to include a highly scalable, energy efficient enterprise Massive Array of Idle Disks (MAID) platform.
Mark J. Barrenechea, SGI CEO, said “The need for real-time access to long-term persistent data is expected to continue to expand. This acquisition will allow SGI to participate directly in this market.”
