BOULDER, Colo. – January 22, 2008 – 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™ archive appliance has been certified to run with Kazeon Information Server™ 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-ofbusiness 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® 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.
