New Features Of AIT Tape Technology

Non-changeable data protection’s demand has increased over the years. The manufacturers of tape products have added new technologies that can provide a backup solution meeting the budget of the customers. The customers of SMB and enterprises require more efficient, cost effective and high capacity tape technology that can satisfy their regulatory needs. Data tapes offering the WORM feature ensure data integrity. WORM technology has proved to be the best reliable technique to protect the recorded data. AIT in the first the first tape medium in which the WORM technology was included. WORM technology in AIT lowers the ownership cost.  AIT technology saves the investment of the business in tape medium.

Multiple-recording heads are used by all of the data tape formats to increase the transfer speeds of its next generation. Higher performance levels are achievable in the linear mechanisms if the host systems have the ability to tolerate the high rates of input/output throughput. Higher rates of input/output throughput to tape, specifically in the compressible working environment of most real world SMB applications are not achievable by the linear technologies. 

Low priced LTO, AIT, Travan, QIC and VXA tapes are available at Tape4backup dot com.

Effectiveness of I/O throughput is limited by the of file systems, system interfaces, application software and over-head of sub-systems. The latencies inherited by the system leads to frequent cycles of start/stop (called shoe shining), because the drive has to wait for the information that is being transferred. This shoe shining effect lowers the performance level and also increases the stress on the tape media. So the long term reliability can also be affected. The transfer speed performance of AIT tape technology matches the capabilities of SMB systems.

Performance and storage capacity has been doubled by Sony Corporation in the AIT-5 tape version. Features of Helical scan, Advanced Metal Evaporated technique along with low tape tension and gentle motion of tape reel enable the AIT 5 tape format to achieve the durability, and performance level demanded by the users. AIT tape technology is extensively being utilized in the enterprises, shows that it has proven itself as the most efficient tape format in meeting the customer’s demands. Small sized AIT-5 cartridge has all the technologies that are best suited to support the requirements of both future and today’s working environments.

The architecture and design Sony AIT-5 tape continues the legacy and also offers new additional powerful features of head-tracking servo mechanism that assures accurate storage and retrieval of data under stress and harsh conditions. AME technology contributes to the increased performance and longevity of the key components of the AIT5 tape drive and media. Unmatchable reliability, optimized performance, high data density, robustness and cost efficiency ideally position the AIT tape format in satisfying the requirements of data archiving & protection in the branch office applications as well as the SMB. Small sized AIT-5 cartridge has all the technologies that are best suited to support the requirements of both future and today’s working environments.
