Strategic partnership delivers easy-to-consume, highly cost-effective tape-based solution to archive data at scale without the need for special skills, large capital investments or on-premises infrastructure.

Spectra Logic and Geyser Data have embarked on a groundbreaking venture to revolutionize data storage by launching a tape-as-a-service (TaaS) offering.

Spectra Logic customers buy its TFinity and Cube tape library systems for deployment on-premises as backup and archive targets, often front-ended by a BlackPearl file and object gateway.

This is probably the cheapest way to store 1000TB of data online safely and securely — tape behemoth rents 18TB LTO-9 tapes and undercuts Wasabi and BackBlaze cloud storage by 75%. Spectra Logic and Geyser Data serve up TAPAS.
