Storage Software:
Spectra StorCycle® Storage Lifecycle Management Software
StorCycle is a cost-effective storage management software that reduces the total cost of storage while leaving all data accessible, all the time. StorCycle identifies and moves inactive data or completed projects from primary file-based storage to a lower tier of storage, that includes object storage, NAS, tape and cloud. This action frees up primary storage capacity for active projects, improves performance, and reduces administrative time. Perfectly suited for industries such as genomics, education, research, media and entertainment, and general IT environments, StorCycle can drastically reduce an organization’s total cost of storage without changing the user experience of accessing data.
