The next evolution in archiving appliances extending the capabilities of the original Cache-A Archiving appliances, the Platform Pro-Cache takes network archiving to a new level of efficiency. Boasting industry standard capabilities including Full and Incremental Backups, recurring jobs, tar, LTFS and ability to read existing Cache-A tapes, The Pro-Cache starts where the prior version left off. However, with a full searchable catalog of every file copied to tape, custom metadata management, proxy generation before archives and the ability to view proxies on archived assets, the new Pro-Cache takes LTO to a new level of efficiency.
