Product Overview:

VTF Open: VTF Open delivers the speed, reliability and availability benefits of disk to backup and recovery operations. VTF Open is an enterprise software solution that emulates tape libraries, enabling existing backup applications to use disk, rather than tape, as their backup medium. By utilizing disk, customers achieve much greater data throughput performance, high availability, data protection (RAID, mirroring, replication), reduced mechanical and human errors, and rapid recoverability. Because it exactly emulates existing tape libraries, customers do not need to change existing backup policies, practices or procedures.

VTF Mainframe: VTF Mainframe is a software solution that is resident on the Mainframe and transparently and automatically redirects tape data to disk in z/OS environments, enabling organizations to enhance their tape-based application performancse, manage tape data as disk data, and provide the capability for unparalleled disaster recovery. Technology advancements have now made it possible to deliver all the benefits of disk based backup such as reducing the batch window, increasing productivity and lowering the total cost of ownership over tape based systems.
