  HSTC
High Performance Virtual Tape Library.


Cybernetics' HSTC™ is a stunning breakthrough in data protection. Designed with incredible flexibility for adapting to your environment and for evolving with your growing network or enterprise, our High Speed Tape Cache capitalizes on the power of virtualizing extremely low cost, ultra-fast disk storage to create numerous virtual tape drives and tapes. The HSTC™ supports multiple host initiators with independent, iSCSI and SCSI interfaces, for virtually limitless configuration possibilities. At disk-to-disk speed, the HSTC™ writes in parallel, simultaneous data streams to independent virtual tape drives to complete backup within your minimum possible backup window. The Offload feature can launch offline tape archiving to easily create any number of tape copies for local and offsite storage, with absolutely no impact on your network or host operations. The virtual backup tapes will remain cached on disk for as long as you need them, ready for the fastest possible restore.

Minimize Risk While Maximizing Up-Time

Optimizing an innovative D2D2T disk staging strategy, Cybernetics' HSTC™ delivers the ultimate high availability recovery solution. Because the HSTC™ can automatically create redundant copies of all backup files on disk and tape, there is no longer any single point of failure in your backup and recovery process. A live copy is cached on disk, and any number of archive copies can then be transferred to tape in a serverless, offline mode. And, because each virtual tape is a completely independent data set, the HSTC™ has all the benefits of interleaving with none of the risk of multiplexed tape sets, which can be rendered useless by loss on any single tape in the set. The very high capacity of the HSTC™ disk storage makes it possible to cache days or weeks of virtual backup tapes, ready to restore at absolute maximum speed. An emergency restore of 100GB from a DLT 8000 drive will take 2.5 to 5 hours just to read the data off tape. The HSTC™ can read 100GB in less than twenty minutes.
