InfoWorld | SAND/DNA Digs Into Compressed Data
Sand Technology this week updated its DNA Dynamic Nearline Architecture data management technology, which compresses data to about 10 percent of its original size and allows the stored data to be searched without being decompressed. Sand is integrating its Sand/DNA Analytics analytic data repository with its SAND/DNA Access storage archival product, and adding new features to both offerings.
