INFOGRAPHIC TRENDING primary storage data for inactive files and migrates them to a secure Perpetual Tier , which can include any combination of cloud storage , object storage disk , networkattached storage ( NAS ) and tape , ensuring the data is protected , while making it easily available to end-users . A smaller primary storage tier shrinks backup and recovery windows , reduces costs and increases overall performance .

With StorCycle ’ s unique Project Archive feature , users can tag and move entire

project data sets to a Perpetual Storage Tier . This allows the complete project to be accessed for further analysis , categorisation and comparison , all while being securely preserved for as long as needed . This makes StorCycle ideal for preserving data in fields such as computational and seismic research , oil and gas studies , semiconductor designs , genomics , media and entertainment , weather forecasting , autonomous vehicle research and other fields where large amounts of machinegenerated data are created . •
