Data backed up and stored to tape is increasingly on-call and accessed in ways — and time frames — that were inconceivable when automated data backup hardware and software were initially developed.Tape does what it was meant to do: store data for a long time. Libraries and backup software do what they were designed to do: let you automate data backup so that you have copies of data, stored on tape, which you can get to when you have to. Backup still requires tape for cost-effective, long-term storage — but backup is no longer enough.
