Manage your data from the inside
Moonwalk is a single technology for the implementation of data management policy that directly reflects the specific regulatory requirements pertaining to your organization.
Moonwalk allows you to manage data by project, making complex datasets easier to express in simple business policies, thus allowing for easier archiving, faster retrieval, and most importantly, the ability to readily monitor and track locations of files and projects.
Moonwalk is a sociable, non-disruptive technology with no introduced points of failure, employing distributed execution of migration tasks thus ensuring minimal network congestion and computing resource consumption.
Extending the capability of traditional HSM technology, Moonwalk places unstructured data into perspective by intelligently relocating files to and from various storage locations, depending on the value of that data.
This in turn, gives companies greater control of their datasets and optimum use of their storage infrastructure.
Common practice has seen companies simply buying more storage to accommodate data growth, creating even bigger headaches further down the track. With Moonwalk, companies can resolve many of these storage issues today, and maintain effective management of disk space on an ongoing basis.
Moonwalk is designed for complete interoperability with Windows, UNIX, Netware and Linux, taking up only a small footprint in the operating Platform.
It serves as a single strategy to proactively manage the migration, copying and movement of data throughout the enterprise. It also allows for simulations to illustrate the impact of these actions so that companies can fine-tune rules to save maximum disk space and confirm that a policy will work as intended.
Moonwalk for Windows automates and intelligently manages the migration of unstructured data from Windows Servers and NTFS volumes to additional tiers within the storage infrastructure.
Moonwalk for Netware automates and intelligently manages the migration of unstructured data from the NSS File System to additional tiers within the storage infrastructure.
Moonwalk for Linux automates and intelligently manages the migration of unstructured data from Linux Servers to additional tiers within the storage infrastructure.
Moonwalk for UNIX automates and intelligently manages the migration of unstructured data from UNIX File Systems to additional tiers within the storage infrastructure.
Moonwalk provides a file system analysis tool that operates as a special policy.
