NEC Soft Launches NetVault From BakBone Software for Linux Storage

New York 10 Apr 00 BakBone announced that NEC Soft . (NES), the systems-integration arm of NEC, has selected BakBone's NetVault for its Linux Enterprise Oracle Server Solution. BakBone Software's NetVault is a storage-management software application that supports department to enterprise systems, including all major Unix Windows NT and Linux platforms.

"NEC Soft is the first in Japan to offer a complete Linux Server Solution, which includes NEC's Express5800 Server, Oracle (Nasdaq:ORCL), Red Hat (Nasdaq:RHAT) and Turbo Linux and now NetVault. We believe NetVault is an excellent and integral addition to our Linux product offerings."

"We chose NetVault, not only for its high performance, ease of use and reliability, but also because NetVault software provides an open architecture that allows for easy integration with other third-party applications such as e-commerce, medical imaging, printing, data warehousing and many others," said Ryouichi Minowa, senior manager, IT solutions, at NEC Soft.

"Because of NetVault's modular architecture, NEC Soft now has a competitive advantage to deliver data-recovery features to the Linux world."

NetVault 6.0, released in May 1999, has an advanced architecture that meets the challenges of storage management for the new high- growth computer and communications SAN market.

NetVault's competitive edge includes a long history of speed advantages over competitors for high-speed server and client backup and restore. Features include advanced support for SANs, centralized control and management, nonproprietary tape formats for UNIX and NT, tremendous ease of use, and multiple server and client support.
