Tier-One OEM Leverages Overland's VTL Leadership With New SMB Solution
SAN DIEGO, May 30 / Overland Storage, Inc. (NASDAQ:OVRL) today announced that the first OEM product featuring the REO Protection OS(TM) intelligent, embedded data protection software has been brought to market. The introduction of these products furthers Overland's long-established leadership position in the virtual tape library (VTL) market.
"As the world's best-selling disk-based backup and recovery appliances, the REO SERIES leverages the intelligence, flexibility and VTL functionality of REO Protection OS, providing customers with the highest level of data protection," said Christopher Calisi, president and chief executive officer, Overland Storage. "With the introduction of this new line of OEM products, Overland has expanded its reach into small to medium-sized organizations that need unattended backup and improved restore performance. We are very pleased to see this product come to market."
Previously available only through Overland's branded REO SERIES(TM) disk-based backup and recovery appliances, the REO Protection OS delivers embedded data protection intelligence including sophisticated virtualization, management and connectivity features. Additionally, the built-in virtual tape library (VTL) functionality allows disk-based appliances to be configured as any combination of virtual tape libraries, virtual tape drives and/or disk volumes, providing maximum flexibility while preserving the initial hardware investment.
"Through both OEM and branded products, Overland will continue to simplify data protection for our partners and customers through innovative, affordable solutions," Calisi added. "We look forward to powering future products with the REO Protection OS."
