A 30,000TB tower powered by a 70-year-old technology - Spectra Logic proves that data tape still has a place in an AI world with storage system that can handle thousands of LTO-9 tapes News
Spectra Logic has introduced the Spectra Cube tape library, a cloud-optimized system for on-premise, hybrid cloud, and IaaS environments that is designed to be quickly deployed, dynamically scaled, and easily serviced without tools or downtime.
The Spectra Cube library is managed by the company's recently announced LumOS library management software, which provides secure local and remote management and monitoring.
The tower is compatible with LTO-6, LTO-7, LTO-8, and LTO-9 technology generations and will reportedly support LTO-10 when it becomes available. LTO-6 support allows users to read old tapes all the way back to LTO-4 with an LTO-6 tape drive. The solution features high tape cartridge exchange performance, a TeraPack Access Port for easy tape handling, and drive interfaces including Fibre Channel and SAS.
