PresSTORE is a modern Data Management System for the Backup, Distribution and Archiving of data.

As in the industry, your customers expect the data to be available "just in time" for production.
PresSTORE enables you to plan and optimize your data-storage resources. Data corruption and failure almost always has fatal consequences. PresSTORE offers several solutions to secure your production.
For example, the Synchronize module enables you to keep your data redundantly at multiple locations of your company. This also allows for the required high availability of your data. PresSTORE also handles your daily backup, and at the end of the production cycle, the data should wander into the Archive. PresSTORE Archive frees your online storage for new projects and offers you and your customers the security and the flexibility to access the archived data at any time as required.
PresSTORE can also be used as an archiving and backup engine for DAM-Systems like Canto Cumulus or OKS OPAS-G.

Here are some key features of "PresSTORE":
excellent scalability
parallel writing to and reading from several drives
parallel backup from multiple file servers
parallel synchronizing of multiple folders
automatic management of tape libraries
platform-independent data storage
Helios, Xinet and Apple data-format support.
Any user can recover the data
Download of files and folders via a Web browser.

Limitations:
If you do not have an end user license, Archiware gives you the opportunity to test PresSTORE in its entire functionality. This allows you to try PresSTORE out in your production environment and test the company-relevant factors.
Note: The demo runs for a limited time.

What's New:
Uses Xinet libraries for fileserver desktop maintenance
Fixed processing of FinderInfo streams for Xinet fileserver files lacking the resource fork files.
Fixed high-watermark of 95% when writing to optical media.
Fixed CLI handles of files with multinational and/or special characters in filenames.
Closed memory leak when archiving huge number of files.
Changed disk-device compression flag to be bound on device name instead of the device directory.
Non-interactive CLI sessions are now set to never expire.
Rewritten disk arbitration interface on Darwin. It now allows for restarting when the diskarbitrationd daemon crashes or hangs. Also, devices controlled by us never publish loaded media to other users of diskarbitrationd hence preventing them to interact with "our" disks.
Added force-killing of runaway processes in scd daemon.
Fixed deadlock situation happening when a job using the media management resources is terminating and user deletes the volume from the GUI.
Circumvented misleading error messages on media detach happening with some DVD-RAM drives in JVC 8 jukeboxes.
Skip checking writability of per-client configured restore paths. We just run the restore and terminate the job with error if the restore path is unwritable by user.
