Polar Graphics, a UK leading distributor for the broadcast, post and pro-AV industries, has signed a licensing agreement with XenData to include its XenData Archive Series software in a newly launched range of LTO archive systems branded as Polar-Arc.
Building on its extensive expertise in delivering archiving and LTO storage solutions, Polar Graphics has a deep understanding of customer needs. XenData's proven archiving software, with installations in over 95 countries, seamlessly aligns with these requirements. This collaboration marks a natural evolution for Polar Graphics, enabling them to offer custom-built archive solutions based on best-of-breed software, backed by outstanding local European support.
The product range will commence with fully configured servers running with the XenData archive engine and will be offered in multiple configurations including entry level Desktop and Rack Mount LTO units to multi Petabyte tape libraries. The Polar-Arc product range is fully TAA compliant and certified for use with a wide range of SAN/NAS/MAM applications.
The Polar-Arc LTO archive systems are now available across most of Europe.
XenData President Philip Storey commented, We are delighted to be working with Polar Graphics. They have an excellent knowledge of the European market for LTO archive systems. Furthermore, Polar Graphics offers complementary products that will allow them to offer a comprehensive range of solutions.
Polar Graphics Managing Director Peter Rowsell added, We've been following XenData closely for many years and have witnessed what an exceptionally stable and comprehensive product they have. With our in-depth knowledge of XenData software, incorporating it into our new product was a logical step. We are very excited to collaborate with Phil and the team at XenData, and look forward to introducing additional applications and features to Polar-Arc in the future.
