Candelis has integrated its ImageGrid™ PACS Appliance with Sony's AIT3
and AIT5 tape libraries. The ImageGrid™ ILM Software allows any studies
archived on an ImageGrid™ to be easily and seamlessly migrated to tape,
while being actively managed in ImageGrid's embedded database.
While ImageGrid™ PACS appliances provides customers with cost effective,
scalable and always-online access to studies, the optional tape library can
also address specific needs:
- Ability to back-up of patient studies as part of efforts for compliance
with HIPAA
- Implementation of an Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) strategy whereby
older or "aged" studies are migrated to tape for long term archiving.
In these cases, ImageGrid's Storage Retention feature can be used to delete
permanently migrated studies from the RAID 5 archive to accommodate new studies.
In addition, ImageGrid™ ILM Software enables customers to take advantage
of Sony AIT's unique features, such as Remote Memory-In-Cassette (R-MIC) and
an embedded radio frequency transponder, to optimize tape access and data retrieval,
provide a safeguard for data, and reduce administrative overhead related to
tape handling.
