BOULDER, Colo.--(Business Wire)--ProStor Systems, a leading developer of removable disk storage
solutions for data protection and archive applications and Kazeon
Systems, a leading provider of intelligent eDiscovery solutions, today
announced that the ProStor Systems InfiniVault(TM) archive appliance
has been certified to run with Kazeon Information Server(TM) software,
helping IT departments improve information access, optimize storage
utilization and cut costs within tiered storage infrastructures.

   The Kazeon Information Server software revolutionizes the way
companies perform eDiscovery by using Information Access technology to
intelligently search, classify and act on electronically stored
information, enabling IT administrators to dramatically reduce the
amount of effort spent manually gathering information. This approach
allows IT and line-of-business managers to focus on higher-value
activities such as managing regulatory compliance, information
security and privacy and eDiscovery efforts, as well as tracking
trends for better planning, reviewing utilization by users and groups
and attributing storage consumption to different departments for
chargeback.

   Combining Kazeon Information Access technology with ProStor's
InfiniVault archive appliance provides companies with a solution that
increases economic savings through data classification and archiving
as well ensuring regulatory compliance.

   "Kazeon's focus is on providing the most scalable and functional
information access platform software to help solve a wide variety of
customer business problems," said Michael Marchi, vice president and
general manager at Kazeon. "Companies can now leverage the benefits of
Kazeon's software combined with ProStor's InfiniVault to ensure that
their valuable data is properly safeguarded and they are prepared for
a broad range of eDiscovery challenges."

   "As we continue to team with leading providers of storage software
solutions like Kazeon, we are solidifying our position as the
preeminent provider of complete archiving and compliance storage
systems," said Bob Williamsen, vice president of marketing at ProStor
Systems. "Working with Kazeon to ensure data's ultimate preservation
for regulatory compliance and eDiscovery provides peace of mind to
companies that depend on intelligent storage solutions to manage and
protect their valuable information assets."

   ProStor's InfiniVault provides a digital archive and compliance
solution that reduces storage costs by combining long-term data
retention, regulatory compliance, automated data archiving and
disaster recovery protection in a single, simple-to-deploy and
easy-to-use appliance. By leveraging RDX(R) removable disk technology,
ProStor has created the world's first archive system that combines the
performance and rapid retrieval of conventional hard disk drives with
the unlimited capacity scalability and disaster recovery protection of
removable media, but with a system design that is far more reliable
than tape and much lower cost than fixed-disk archive systems.
