Storage lifecycle

Use disk and archives together.

Hoard supports data archiving and storage lifecycle management across secondary disk copies, prepared data packages, and tape archives. Retain important datasets, review recorded contents, and find the available copies when they are needed.

Secondary disk copies

Keep protected files on additional disk storage for access and recovery.

Prepared data packages

Bundle a dataset for archive or transport and review the package’s recorded contents.

Tape archives

Send selected data to tape and track the cartridge, its contents, and physical custody.

Long-term and offsite data

Remember where the archive went.

When a cartridge leaves the library, custody history can record its location and whether it remains available for recovery. If files are needed later, the record helps identify which media must be returned.

Track archive contents

Review the files recorded on a cartridge.

Record media location

Keep onsite and offsite movement details with the cartridge record.

Support another recovery site

Portable archive information can help a separate Hoard installation locate recorded tape contents.

More than tape

Pick protection destinations for each need.

Disk copies can support storage refreshes and distribution. Packages can support transport. Tape can support long-term retention. Hoard helps your team keep the protection history together across these workflows.

Retain the work your team depends on

Keep research, engineering, and project data available for later use.

Completed projects often need to be preserved beyond their working life. Hoard helps your team retain managed copies and their recorded contents so earlier data can be located when a project, partner, or recovery effort needs it.

Preserve research and engineering datasets

Keep managed copies of source datasets, analysis results, and project deliverables on the storage selected for retention. Review which files were copied and where those copies are recorded.

Prepare a project handoff

Package a collection of files for archive or transport. Review the recorded package contents before it is transferred, retained, or used in a later recovery workflow.
