GB Labs launch ECHO (36 bay) with complete failover at IBC 2016

ECHO (36 bay) is the big brother of GB Labs' ECHO (16 bay) nearline storage product. The ECHO 36 with our new CloakDR software offers complete failover for power/disk failure and localised disaster. This makes ECHO (36 bay) a bulletproof storage solution for large broadcasters where data availability is paramount.

Two ECHO (36 bay) units working together provide unparalleled security and high availability with no single point of failure through storage and networking layers. Our unique CORE operating system writes to both units simultaneously and in real-time, even when the units are up to 10km apart.

Should one ECHO (36 bay) unit be completely destroyed, the same data is available in seconds from the other. Users on the network would be unaware because our operating system manages this transition over a single virtualised IP address, leading to no downtime and no re-linking of media or other servers.
