As a key component of our end-to end process for the supply and support of your Tape assets Media Resources provides both Tape Media Conversion and Data Conversion services designed to ensure that you can continue to access your data for as long as it is stored on tape.
- Do you have archive data in a physical tape format that you can no longer read? Do you have data backed up on tape using backup software for which you no longer hold a licence?
- Do you need to refresh legacy archives for data security and compliance purposes?
- Do you need to move the data to a new platform or higher capacity media?
- Can you demonstrate to auditors that you can still read legacy archive data?
- Do you need to restore old tapes for legal purposes?
- Have you inherited ‘foreign media’ as the result of an acquisition but can’t read it?
In any of these situation (and many more) Media Resources has the solution.
Over time businesses go through many technology changes and upgrades and sometimes tape-based archives can get ‘left behind’ creating islands of information within the business.
This ‘orphaned’ data can represent a real risk to any business if it is required to restore it for regulatory, fiscal or compliance reasons.
To mitigate this risk Media Resources provides a range of tailored tape data conversion and restoration services designed to ensure the ongoing availability of the data stored.
If you have a requirement to move, consolidate, restore or simply audit legacy archive data for any reason call one of our Data Specialists to discuss how we can help.
