Plasmon UDO migration to Blu Ray for RVI, FileNet Document Management Users!

PR Log (Press Release) – May 02, 2009 – It is very tragic that Plasmon has had to suspend business, however, if you have a UDO or MO system from Plasmon for RVI Document Management / Imaging and are wondering how to move forward, Phantom Data Systems is here to help. Whether you have a direct attach library or a Plasmon Archive Appliance, Phantom Data Systems has a go forward strategy.

For customers with legacy data, Phantom Data Systems offers two solutions. First, the standard HSM software can manage a direct attached library and support both the UDF and Diamond file systems from Plasmon in addition to the new hardware you select, preventing the need to migrate data. The data can also be migrated instead of managed in dual mode. For Plasmon Archive Appliance customers or customers wishing to migrate their data to newer storage technology, Phantom Data Systems will provide a tool, which will seamlessly migrate data from your current system to the new Blu ray archive.

“Unfortunately, vendors that do not realize the industry has undergone a metamorphosis into a collaboratively competitive environment only risk isolation. That’s what happened to Plasmon” said Alani Kuye, President of Phantom Data Systems Inc of Norwalk, Connecticut. "Proprietary systems run the risk of leaving customers holding the bag when such vendors go out of business. Regardless of who picks up the pieces, the damage has been done. Blu Ray is currently the standard and the adoption rate across the board has been tremendous. With built - in DVD and CD retro compatibility into the Blu Ray platform our customers now have the cross functional and non proprietary storage and archival solution they have been looking for. UDO was the exact opposite of this. RVI being a very powerful solution also supports the Powerfile A3 Blu Ray libraries which are a part of our solution offering as well" continued Alani Kuye.

This new feature will allow customers to connect the migrator product to their existing Plasmon MO or UDO optical library as well as a new Blu-Ray optical library. Once the libraries are configured the customer can select the migration feature to automatically copy all their existing data over to industry standard UDF Blu-Ray format. They can select between disc-to-disc copy, many MO/UDO discs to one Blu-Ray disc, or they can copy all the existing MO/UDO discs to one large volume.
