Moonwalk Teams with Plasmon

Moonwalk has partnered with Plasmon on a joint solution that provides companies using traditional Hierarchical Storage Management solutions greater control of their datasets and optimal use of their storage infrastructure without the technology's associated management headaches, extra costs and risks.

Extending the capabilities of HSM solutions, Moonwalk 6.0 advanced data migration software can intelligently move, copy or archive files from various platforms and file systems to the Plasmon Archive Appliance based on the business value of the unstructured data under storage. This singular approach enables companies to proactively manage data throughout the enterprise while allowing them to find data, allocate destinations, set rules and policies and run tasks from a single administrator interface that lets them drill down to the details easily and swiftly.

The solution allows users to deploy a set of policies for classifying and archiving data, and it makes certain that these centrally configured policies will be distributed and enforced right to the edge of the network. It's also network-aware and data-centric, so it allows for data management by project, location, user, group, size, name, time and other attributes, making complex datasets easier to express in simple data management policies. By enabling full flexibility in setting rules, IT staffs can build everything from simple to complex policies for data management, allowing them to conveniently reuse policies whenever necessary.
