Secure data archiving with RDX
Secure data archiving with RDX
KEEP IMPORTANT DATA ON REMOVABLE, IDENTIFIABLE AND CONTROLLED MEDIA. Some data needs to be retained beyond standard backup cycles: project archives, customer files, business exports, administrative data or technical history. With Tandberg Data RDX, you can organize archives on removable cartridges that are easy to identify, classify, store outside production and retrieve when needed.
Separate operational backup from secure archiving
Backup is mainly used to restore recent data quickly after an incident. Archiving follows a different logic: keeping important data for a longer period in an organized, documented and controlled way. With RDX, archives can be materialized on removable media and classified by period, department, project or customer.
3 KEY BENEFITS FOR YOUR ARCHIVES
Why use RDX for secure archiving?
RDX helps retain important data on physical removable media that is easy to identify and store outside production. This approach supports archive organization, reduces pressure on active storage and keeps local access to retained data when needed.
Identifiable media
Classify each cartridge by period, department, project or customer to simplify retrieval.
Outside production
Move archives away from active storage to reduce pressure on primary systems.
Controlled access
Keep a physical copy locally available when archived data must be consulted or restored.
Classify archives by period, department or project
A useful archive is an archive that can be found. With RDX media, you can define a simple approach: one cartridge by period, project file, department, business export or retention cycle. The key is to document naming rules, storage location, creation date and retention period.
For business data that must be retained without overloading active storage
RDX archiving can address several needs: retaining closed project files, periodic exports, imaging data, creative content, administrative files or technical history. Removable media helps separate retained data from data used in day-to-day operations.
