Legato Expands Scope Of Information Protection Solutions Through Completion of Interoperability Testing Between NetWorker and IBM iSCSI-based Storage
Announcement posted by Legato Systems Inc. 26 Mar 2002
Legato Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: LGTO), a worldwide leader in enterprise storage management software, today announced that Legato NetWorker (r)has been successfully interoperability tested with the IBM TotalStorage IP Storage 200i in an iSCSI storage network.
"The completion of testing of Legato NetWorker with the IBM IP Storage 200i further strengthens the portfolio of tested products between Legato and IBM, and further diversifies Legato's information protection and availability solutions for enterprise environments," said Roland Hagan, vice president of marketing, Storage Networking Division, at IBM.
The IBM IP Storage 200i, which supports heterogeneous Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Linux clients, is designed to deliver high-performance, reliable, pooled storage using the emerging iSCSI protocol. iSCSI is based on a networking infrastructure that is designed to make it possible for enterprises to migrate quickly and efficiently to iSCSI storage networks and SANs. In addition, the iSCSI protocol supports customer's ability to leverage their investments in Ethernet-based infrastructures such as hubs, switches and routers by facilitating block-level backup and recovery operations using SCSI protocol over IP-based network fabric.
"We're excited to offer this solution because iSCSI technology delivers significant value to enterprises seeking to leverage their existing Ethernet network for high performance information protection operations," said Victoria Grey, vice president information protection, Legato. "Legato's qualification of NetWorker with the IBM 200i provides end users with information protection alternatives that are on the cutting edge of technology and deliver significant advantages in total cost of ownership and performance."
With more than 100,000 NetWorker server licenses worldwide, Legato's information protection software protects the business-critical data of enterprise customers by simplifying and centralizing backup and recovery operations across heterogeneous environments. Built upon an open, highly scalable architecture, NetWorker reduces management overhead by automating the protection of storage assets for the largest corporate data centers to the smallest satellite branch offices.
