Storage vendors are pushing to add more and more intelligence to their storage devices and components. Infrastructure, arrays, software-based management, libraries - developers are working to provide new levels of efficiency, automation and management capabilities at hardware and software levels. Tape is no exception. Tape storage vendors are constantly increasing tape speed and capacity, and are also placing increasing amounts of intelligence and automation into Fibre Channel tape libraries. But is this intelligence being used as well as it could be? Since companies can back up to disk (and library developers themselves are putting in disk front-ends), why go with tape? The reason is portability, which is still vital in disaster recovery schemes.
