DYNAMIC DATA STORAGE SOLUTIONS
Overland designs and manufactures innovative data storage products that continue to exceed
the changing demands of information technology while complying with ISO 9001 quality
system standards. Unmatched performance, reliability, availability and value in more than
75,000 customer installations worldwide, plus more than 25 awards for product excellence,
establish Overland as the network storage leader.
HISTORY
Consistent developments in tape technology since 1980 have made Overland a key global
supplier of automated tape backup solutions for complex computing environments. In 1994,
Overland entered the DLTtape industry with LibraryXpress, the world's first modularly
scalable library that could be upgraded in capacity increments to address nearly every backup
need. Another technology breakthrough introduced in 1997 the Variable Rate Randomizer
(VR2) data encoding technique substantially increases the capacity and throughput of linear
tape formats without any changes in tape path design, recording heads and/or media. Today,
Overland's pioneer spirit builds upon these historical successes.
CAPABILITIES
Overland's third generation of libraries adds Distributed Robotics Architecture (DRA) to the
company's award-winning DLT LibraryXpress SmartScale Storage core. Named the Neo
Series, this ultimate, intelligent automated storage system provides maximum up time,
enables tape drive, robotics, power supply and controller card redundancy, and provides a
means to configure mixed-media storage libraries.
Innovation and relentless testing have established Overland as the trusted industry standard,
particularly in mission-critical environments where 24/7 operation and high availability are
required. Technology evolutions in connectivity, reliability, remote management and
performance match or exceed customer needs, while modular scalability architectures
provide investment protection, a lower total cost of ownership and proven compatibility with all
leading backup applications in every environment.
With products available for every possible capacity range from 50 GB to more than 20 TB,
Overland offers a wide variety of tape technologies, including DLT1, AIT, LTO, DLT and
Super DLT. Advanced connectivity features provide customers the ability to incorporate
Overland libraries into Fibre Channel, SCSI and other storage networking technologies, and
increase backup and restore capabilities in SAN and NAS environments by enabling LAN-free
and Server-free backup.
PARTNERS
Strong international relationships with leading OEMs, commercial distributors, storage
integrators and value-added resellers help Overland understand customer requirements, then
provide a local resource to design, acquire and implement tailored solutions. And long-term
partnerships with top industry storage vendors, including drive technology partners, SAN and
NAS providers and leading software vendors, enable Overland to provide fully tested and
certified backup solutions.
SERVICE
Overland's commitment to reliability and performance is demonstrated in industry-leading
warranty programs such as ServiceXpress, XchangeNOW and GUTS. Overland tape libraries
are covered by the Guaranteed Up Time Service (GUTS) program, guaranteeing 99% up time
and 100% data recovery on all automation products.
