Shrink the cost of archiving data!

You could potentially save 86% over ten years by using HPE StoreEver tape versus all-disk or all-cloud alternatives.

Save more data, for longer, for less

Although the cloud may have a very low barriers to adoption, it’s clear that businesses need to consider the longer term cost impact very carefully. Cloud service fees are a rental charge that needs to be paid, month after month, year after year, even before the typical extra charges for data retrieval. Using HPE StoreEver tape to reduce the total cost of storing less frequently accessed, but important data, can free up budget for other investments and alleviate pressures on operational budgets and cost centres.
