Archiware P5 Software Suite V5.6 With LTFS Support
And also Microsoft Azure, Hitachi S3, Wasabi S3 and Backblaze B2 cloud services
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on October 11, 2018 at 2:21 pmArchiware GmbH has released the newest version of its P5 Software Suite.
Prominent features in P5 version 5.6 include LTFS support, support for Microsoft Azure, Hitachi S3, Wasabi S3 and Backblaze B2 cloud services and new functionalities for P5 Synchronize.
This release brings a variety of features over the three main modules of the P5 software suite. P5 Archive and P5 Backup, already capable of securing data and media to various cloud services, also support Microsoft Azure, Hitachi S3, Wasabi S3 and Backblaze B2. To facilitate the transfer of large amounts of data to the cloud independent of the internet connection, P5 Archive now allows using import services such as Backblaze Fireball and Amazon Snowball.
The main addition to P5 Archive is the native LTFS integration, requiring no additional drivers or software. Assets from the archive or the local file system can be imported from and exported to LTFS formatted tapes which are suited for transporting and exchanging data, e.g. raw material or finished projects.

With the release of version 5.6, the company is also offering the P5 Desktop Edition, a license package including P5 Archive and P5 Backup to a single LTO tape drive, intended to make P5’s high-end data security and feature set affordable for single users and small groups.
