Helical Systems Announces HHArchive Beta 1
Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, August 8, 2000 - Helical Systems Limited today
announced that beta 1 of their HHArchive product is available for testing.
This release is the first step in a multiphase plan to produce a very large
geospatial data warehousing solution.
About HHArchive
The rate of data acquisition has experienced exponential growth in recent
years. For example, there are programs that deploy a variety of satellite,
airborne, and shipborne sensors for the intensive mapping of landforms and
the seafloor. These programs are collecting vast quantities of data that
exceed terabytes (TB, 1000 gigabytes) to petabytes (PB, 1000 terabytes) in
range. They produce enormously large scientific data holdings with substantial
requirements for archival and retrieval facilities.
Helical Systems, recognizing the need for efficient management of extremely
large data sets, has developed the HHArchive product. The HHArchive is a
reliable, long term, distributed archive designed to handle massive quantities
of multidimensional geospatial data. It provides extremely fast data storage
and retrieval times, with little or no degradation with increased data set
size.
The HHArchive was designed to meet the demands of today's data collection
systems and to scale to meet the demands of the future.
