OptiServer
KOM's OptiServer software provides secure long-term storage and archive management capabilities for optical storage on UNIX operating systems, enabling companies to meet their archival and regulatory requirements for managing data. OptiServer enables compliance by writing data directly to a WORM disk for legal admissibility. There is no learning curve as OptiServer allows use of "already familiar" system commands and security features of the UNIX operating system to store data on optical media and jukeboxes. Many organizations such as NASA, Merrill Lynch, the Federal Election Commission and leading lottery organizations depend on OptiServer.
