GENESIS: The Solution to the
Optical Conversion
|
Optical
migrations typically involve the movement of very large
amounts of data to newer storage media. Although Optical
storage is generally used in the role of long term
repository and there may be many years worth of data
stored, sometimes the data is still active (being
retrieved) and this access combined with the sheer size
of the data repository means that the conversion process
could last weeks or months. The potential for media
failures and data integrity issues increases with the
amount of data and the conversion time.
GENESIS
is a database driven tool that uses a processing
calendar to assign the daily conversion work for GENESIS
in an allotted timeframe. The product is parameter
driven to control all aspects of the data migration
including the details of the storage groups.
In
addition, GENESIS includes logic that optimizes data
access during the migration to reduce platter
mounts/dismounts and flips which can significantly
impact migration time and reduce media failures.

eliminate the expense of optical workloads check out GENESIS!
