Will LTO7 from HPE be able to take the top slot in storage?
Currently, HPE is on 2nd position in backup solutions, acquired within a short span of few years
HP Enterprise (HPE) has acquired the second position in backup solution within a short span. With the launch of LTO7, it aspires to achieve the number one position thus surpassing EMC. The top slot is currently held by EMC. When HP entered the storage solutions market, it started from the bottom of the ladder with so many players above it. Within a short span, it has acquired the second slot. The credit goes to its innovative solutions and a strict roadmap. The roadmap for LTO 8, LTO 9 and LTO 10 is clearly defined and the teams are working on it accordingly. HPE LTO 7 has a capacity of 15 TB (Terabytes). This is the compressed data capacity. The uncompressed or raw data capacity is 6.5 TB. This is a tremendous achievement by HPE by launching an unbeatable and versatile fantastico solution in backup and storage. HPE StoreEver is the latest entrant in the race. A single cartridge of LTO 7 can store up to 15 TB of compressed data. This is, in reality, a dream come true for storage hungry corporate. The solution is obviously a boon for media, entertainment and streaming businesses.

HPE has launched its seventh generation external storage product with the release of StoreEver LTO Ultrium 15000 external tape. As is evident, that increase in capacity helps technology in many ways. It reduces the physical storage requirement for tapes. The management becomes easier. The capacity increase helps you in using lesser number of tapes for the same amount of data. The security gets enhanced due to the decrease in the number of tapes. With the increase in manageability, it also helps in easier sorting and labelling. And on top of it, if there is a list of fantastico features that enhance your performance, there is nothing like it. The LTO 7 comes with an intelligent solution for incremental backup. Its deduplication feature ensures only the unique data gets backed up. Every bit of data that is backed up gets encrypted using AES 256-bit.
