NTP Software(TM) Introduces NTP Software Storage M&A(TM) for NAS, NetApp(R) Edition Including Support for Snapshots. Check it out:
NASHUA, N.H. --(Business Wire)-- NTP Software(TM), the worldwide leader in the management and control of unstructured data, today announced the availability of its new version of NTP Software Storage M&A(TM) for NAS, NetApp(R) Edition, which now includes support for Snapshots.
NTP Software Storage M&A(TM), a member of NTP Software Smart ILM(TM) suite of products, provides Senior Executives and Storage Administrators a way to understand what's happening in their environment. While NTP Software Storage M&A(TM) will allow you to report on anything in the environment, its real value comes from the NTP Software Storage Analysis Engine(TM) which uses heuristics, trend analysis and spot analysis to discern what's important and help focus your attention.
Snapshots, as part of your data protection strategy are a critical component of the health of your network storage. Up until now it has been difficult to analyze how storage is used by snapshots, other than its basic allocation. Without NTP Software Storage M&A(TM) and the NTP Software Storage Analysis Engine(TM), Storage Administrators have no way to judge the appropriateness of their allocation.
"In a NetApp(R) environment, much of a network's storage can be consumed by Snapshots, which means they can become quite costly," said David Hilton, President of Strategic Vision. "Using the NTP Software Storage M&A(TM) Engine to analyze their storage utilization is critical to cost-effective management."
"We see Snapshot support as one of the steps in helping our customers better understand their storage environments," said Aaron Dufoe, NTP Software's Vice President for Worldwide Sales. "Coupled with the NTP Software Storage Analysis Engine(TM), which will tell you what's important and not bury you in raw data, our customers can now see all the important elements of their NetApp(R) environment."
NTP Software Storage M&A(TM) for NAS, NetApp(R) Edition with Snapshot support provides the functionality to report and project on the storage space in an environment, as well as take into consideration space that is allocated for Snapshots and compare it to the space that is actually being used. This new product feature provides greater insight into the overall storage environment and allows the enterprise to understand what is going on in their environment and where, through one central location.
NTP Software Storage M&A(TM) for NAS, NetApp(R) Edition with support for Snapshots is now available. Pricing starts at $9,995, and is licensed per Filer.
