S 3
Your S3 Object Storage to Tape complete solution
The ORION S3 already comes with an integrated S3-to-tape gateway in the form of an S3 appliance. The appliance is housed directly in the library rack. The appliance is equipped with a PoINT Archival Gateway, a corresponding server and the necessary storage cache. The ORION S3 starts with 974 tape slots and 3 LTO-FH drives or with 920 tape slots and 21 LTO-FH drives. Other configurations are of course possible. Thanks to the S3 head, the ORION S3 can be scaled in width to several 1,000 tape slots.
Special features of the ORION S3
In the ORION S3, the first 6 height units are left free for the installation of the PoINT Archival Gateway Appliances. The libraries are delivered complete with the installed and preconfigured PoINT Archvial Gateway Appliance through our Axians logistics center. The standardized S3 interface allows data to be written to tape quickly and easily. With the PoINT Archival Gateway the ORION can be scaled to up to 8 tape libraries. This means that upto 8.779 tape slots can be served. The PoINT Archival Gateway Appliances are manufactured by our partners Boston-Server and RNT. The Appliances are also available with Dell Technologies Hardware.
