With the dramatic growth in data storage and shrinking IT budgets, it is essential for IT organizations to have an efficient and cost-effective means of implementing data lifecycle management solutions. The ARKIVIO® auto-xplor software enables IT managers to collect detailed information about each device, volume, and file in your heterogeneous storage network, without requiring installation of server agents. When combined with Arkivio professional services, the solution enables IT managers to implement a detailed storage audit that gathers critical information and produces in-depth reports about the data storage environment.

The ARKIVIO® auto-xplor software identifies under-utilized storage, as well as volumes reaching full capacity in order to determine your precise storage requirements and avoid “out-of-capacity” occurrences. The solution also collects valuable information about the value of your data over its lifecycle, such as space consumption by file types or last access or modification time. By identifying and migrating “less frequently accessed” data off primary storage, IT managers can reduce the time required for backup and disaster recovery.
