Active Archive Alliance adds Quantum, Seven10, Scality and XenData as new members 26 Mar 2013
Organization Grows Amid Demand for Easier, More Affordable Solutions for High-Volume Data Storage
The Active Archive Alliance announced today that four storage companies have joined the organization.

Finding the most cost-effective, reliable and scalable way to store long-term data has become a top challenge for today's enterprise, said Dave Thomson, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing for QStar Technologies and Active Archive Alliance Board Member. With the new members, the Alliance is able to bolster the technology solution sets available for implementing active archives that are best suited to address each customer's specific needs.
Each of the members enables the Alliance to offer an even greater variety of active archive configurations.
Seven10 Storage provides a scale-out file system that enables seamless migration from legacy storage while managing new storage platforms and protecting those investments as customers move to a hybrid cloud.
Scality delivers organic storage solutions for cloud services in a wide variety of industries and contexts. The company's scale-out object storage solution helps companies respond to the exponential growth of storage demand within a fixed budget.
Quantum helps companies maximize the value of their data by providing industry-leading file system, object storage and tape solutions that enable the creation and management of local, distributed and cloud-based archives.
