Drive

A device used to read and write data on a

 

medium.

eject

The physical action of removing a medium from

 

an archive. For a robotic archive, the medium is

 

robotically moved to the unload port for removal

 

by the operator.

Eject area

The logical location within the I/O unit that

 

accepts ejected media.

Ethernet

Interface standard defined by IEEE Standard 802.3

File

An individual collection of related data (e.g.; a

 

letter, a table, a digitized photograph).

Foreign (non-

Cartridges not listed with a volser in the archive

system) media

catalog. They are processed by the DAS system via

 

the I/O unit.

ID

Identifier. In DAS the ID is usually referring to the

 

volser, which is the identifier for a volume.

insert

The action of physically entering a medium into

 

an archive. For a robotic archive, the operator

 

places the medium in the archive's load port from

 

which the robot places the medium in the assigned

 

bin.

Insert area

Logical location within the I/O unit that accepts

 

inserted media.

I/O unit

A mechanical device into which an operator places

 

media which are to be entered or removed from a

 

robotic archive.

inventory

A physical action by the archive’s robot to

 

determine the storage contents of the AML.

Media

More than one medium.

Medium

A storage object that, when mounted in a drive/

 

recorder/reproducer, is available for read and

 

write operations, but also for clean. Types include

 

magnetic tape, magnetic disk, optical tape, and

 

optical disk, cleaning tape.

mount

The robotic action to move media from storage to a

 

drive.

Server specifications

ADIC Server, short for Advanced Data Interoperability and Communication Server, is a modern server platform designed to facilitate seamless data exchanges, interoperability, and communication among various applications and systems. Tailored for organizations that require robust data management solutions, ADIC Server stands out due to its unique features and flexibility.

One of the main features of ADIC Server is its comprehensive data integration capabilities. It supports a wide array of data formats, including JSON, XML, and CSV, allowing organizations to connect diverse data sources effortlessly. This flexibility is critical in a data-driven world, ensuring that businesses can leverage their data regardless of where it resides.

ADIC Server also boasts a rich set of APIs, enabling developers to create custom applications and integrations without extensive overhead. This feature allows businesses to extend their existing systems and ensure that they can adapt their operations quickly to meet ever-changing market demands.

In terms of technology, ADIC Server is built on a microservices architecture, which ensures scalability and reliability. Each microservice can operate independently, allowing organizations to scale specific components of the system according to their needs. This modular approach also promotes resilience, as failure in one service does not directly impact the entire server functionality.

Security is another hallmark of ADIC Server. The platform incorporates advanced encryption protocols and authentication mechanisms to safeguard sensitive data transactions. Role-based access control (RBAC) ensures that data is only accessible to authorized personnel, thus significantly reducing the risk of data breaches.

Another characteristic deserving mention is the server's exceptional performance. ADIC Server is optimized for high throughput and low latency, making it suitable for real-time data processing. Organizations can rely on the server to handle large volumes of data from various sources without compromising speed or efficiency.

Moreover, its user-friendly interface and robust monitoring tools facilitate effective management and troubleshooting. Administrators can easily track performance metrics, identify bottlenecks, and ensure optimal operation of the server.

In conclusion, ADIC Server represents a cutting-edge solution for organizations striving to enhance data interoperability and communication. With its integration capabilities, scalable architecture, security features, and performance optimization, it stands as a dependable choice for businesses looking to leverage their data assets more effectively.
