Quantum to Showcase Storage Solutions for Life Sciences Workflows at Bio-IT World Expo 2016

March 30, 2016

Senior Director Claire Giordano Will Also Present on Benefits of Multi-Tier Storage for Genomics

SAN JOSE, CA - Mar 30, 2016 - Quantum Corp. (NYSE: QTM) today announced it will showcase multi-tier storage solutions to address challenging data management problems for genomics, bioinformatics, medical imaging and cancer researchers at the Bio-IT World Conference & Expo in Boston, April 5-7 (booth #557). With growing archives of data increasingly offering new opportunities to drive scientific advances, Quantum will highlight how its multi-tier storage infrastructure meets the performance, cost and access requirements for most efficiently retaining and managing these valuable assets. These requirements include providing transparent, self-service access to the data, regardless of the tier of storage where it physically resides: flash, disk, object storage, tape or cloud.
