About NTIOMstore


The storage management solution that makes jukeboxes fast and easy to use

NTIOMstore is the Storage Management solution for Microsoft Windows NT. Properly designed for Windows NT, NTIOMstore uses native NTFS to maximise performance, making all jukeboxes easy to use and administer.

NTIOMstore provides unique ease of use to system administrators by closely integrating into the Microsoft kernel. NTIOMstore installs in seconds and configures in minutes, providing quick and easy access to jukebox storage.

Integration

Kernel Based
Drive Letter Integration
NTIOMstore provides unique ease of use to system administrators by closely integrating into the Microsoft kernel. NTIOMstore installs in seconds and configures in minutes, providing quick and easy access to jukebox storage.
NTIOMstore provides full transparent management of Jukeboxes within the Windows NT environment. Jukeboxes are configured directly into the Microsoft Explorer View as one or more standard NTFS drive letters.
NTIOMstore supports long file names and ensures jukebox resources are easily shared across the network.

Security

File Level Security
NTIOMstore keeps all data safe all the time and provides full NTFS security for control of data access. Uniquely, using NTFS, NTIOMstore ensures all directories are written where they should be - with the data on the jukebox media.

Caching

High Performance Caches
Configurable Cache Migration
NTIOMstore provides multiple configurable magnetic disk caches making it the fastest performing product of its type. To maximise the performance of the jukebox, magnetic disk caches are simply and quickly configured in varying sizes to suit differing applications. These caches deliver high performance by holding directory information and data together. The caches do not require backing up as NTIOMstore does not rely on them for data integrity or accessibility. Should caches be lost, they are automatically rebuilt from the NTFS filesystem written to the jukebox media.

Spanning

Seamless media Spanning
Writing files and data larger than a single disc
NTIOMstore allows jukeboxes to be logically partitioned into varying capacities, transparently spanning media boundaries providing seamless mass storage. Each logical partition uses it’s own dedicated cache and jukebox media to keep data segregated.
