2 LEADERSHIP ADIC is one of the foremost global suppliers of solutions for protecting and managing business-critical data. As the industry s largest producer of tape libraries for open systems backup*, the company provides protection and security for thousands of terabytes of the world s most important information. As one of the leading providers of data management software for the enterprise, ADIC helps more than 1,200 IT departments around the world manage their assets more productively. INTELLIGENCE ADIC gives IT departments the power of Intelligent Storage solutions. This intelligence lets users integrate disk transparently into backup without requiring changes in software or procedures. Intelligence lets a library proactively check the whole environment so that administrators can fix problems before the backup starts. And intelligence builds policy-based data management environments that automatically move data to the right resources as its business value changes. IT WAS THE ONLY SYSTEM WE FOUND THAT INTEGRATED ELEMENTS OF END-TO-END DATA MANAGEMENT INTO A SINGLE UNIFIED SOLUTION. AND IT WORKS BEAUTIFULLY.
