Actifio 6.0 delivers powerful enterprise information management platform

WALTHAM, USA: Actifio, the radically simple copy data storage company, today announced a significant product release expanding Actifio's scope as a strategic, application-defined copy data management platform.

New features in Actifio 6.0 allow companies to manage data in ways that go beyond business resiliency applications - classic backup and business continuity use cases - to manage enterprise data access in ways that dramatically enhance business agility. The initial focus of these features is on the ability to instantly provision application data for self-service development and testing. In addition, Actifio 6.0 is optimized for cloud service providers to dramatically accelerate service introduction with less infrastructure and cost.

Highlights of the release include:

* Automated application development workflows for better apps, 300 percent faster.

* Accelerated service introduction for Cloud Providers with 90 percent less infrastructure.

* Anywhere access with mobile management apps for real-time IT monitoring.

* Advanced SAP, Microsoft Exchange, SQL, HP-UX, AIX, IBM iSeries and Oracle Solaris Integrations.

Actifio now protects thousands of enterprise applications, representing 396 petabytes for over 250 users in 22 countries around the world, making it the fastest growing storage company from inception, ever. The power of Actifio's award winning Copy Data Storage platform lies in its ability to capture data from applications across the enterprise, minimize the movement of the data across the network and optimize its storage to reduce the overall cost of data management by up to 90 percent.

Global CIOs recognize Actifio's broad applicability beyond backup and business continuity and are selecting Actifio as a platform for building better apps faster. In addition, cloud service providers, which last quarter represented over 50 percent of Actifio's bookings for the first time, recognize that the platform transforms the economics of their service delivery by allowing them to build and deliver more compelling cloud-based services in ways that are both faster and more efficient than ever before.
