Cache-A To Unveil Automated Archive Workflow Features At NAB

Cache-A Corporation is to unveil new features – Workflow Templates and Incremental Archiving – that can be used to automate a range of regular LTO-tape archive tasks and deliver greater levels of asset protection insurance, during NAB 2014 on booth #SL9027.

With the new Workflow Templates capability, Cache-A users can create, run manually or automate, and schedule a wide range of background archive tasks and routines with a range of connected devices.
"A powerful feature of Workflow Templates is the ability to create Incremental Archives – to set-up regular, automatic LTFS LTO-tape copying of only those files that are new or have changed since the last archive was made," the company said.
"The main advantage of Incremental Archiving is that fewer files are copied in the period between full archive sessions, which means that less tape is used and archive sessions are shorter. Furthermore, automating regular archive sessions increases peace-of-mind that assets are secure on an on-going basis."
With Cache-A’s Incremental Archive capability any data can be found and restored on a file-by-file or folder basis and restored to a destination determined by the user. Because this feature leverages LTFS, back-ups can be recovered on any third party LTFS capable equipment.
To operate Workflow Templates, Cache-A has added a new web-based template management feature into the latest software user interface and will publish a companion set of tutorials and learning tools online.
"Cache-A’s new Workflow Templates tools create opportunities to automate a wide range of tasks, while also improving efficiency, reducing labor and human error," said Phil Ritti, CEO of Cache-A. "The addition of Incremental Archiving further improves the insurance users need to quickly recover from any accidents, errors, failures or disasters."
Cache-A expects to ship the new software features during summer 2014, and will release further product and pricing information at that time.
