Memopal offers 250 Gigabytes of scalable space for archiving your files and manyother services at a price of just 99$ (69 Euros) per year.
Memopal was created in 2007 by a group of Italian computer engineers and businessmenthanks to a "seed investment" of 1 million dollars by venture capitalists andEuropean managers.
Today, Memopal is growing at a rate of over 1000 new users a day thanks to theproduct s hi-tech innovation and the team s work to provide consumers andcorporations with exposure to the advantages of this kind of backup: Recently,Memopal s Managing Director Marco Trombetti, spoke about data security and digitalinformation at an OMAT conference with IBM, Poste Italiane, Adobe, Kofax and IronMountain representatives.
A European startup with an Italian heart, Memopal s mission is to spread knowledgeabout online backup - the most efficient way to protect and share company documents.
The service is fully automatic: after deciding what you want to save, Memopallaunches when you turn on your computer. With 280 GB of scalable space available,you can even choose whether you want to just save certain folders or protect yourentire PC.
The user can independently restore any lost or damaged file, if it was protectedwith Memopal. In fact, the system traces all the changes made to a file for avirtually indefinite period of time (file versioning). This means that if you needto restore a document that was overwritten accidentally, simply go back and open theprevious versions, which are all available. Memopal does not delete saved filesunless the user deletes them.
Memopal was developed with multiuser compression technologies for files. Since everyuser s computer contains some files or file parts that are identical or similar,(like operating system components): why save similar file or file parts each andevery time? Memopal only backs up the identical parts of files once and then itlinks them to different users over and over again.
Memopal Global File System (MGFS) has a checksum-based structure and its cross-filecompression algorithm is based on specialized vocabulary. It is not only offered ata low price per Gigabyte (about .42$ per year), it also makes transferring fasterand safer.
Memopal works in Real Time: whenever you save a file it is backed up online makingit available immediately. And that is not all: the MGFS (Memopal Global File System)storage technology used by Memopal contains an advanced semantic search engine forfiles and a state of the art Content Collaboration System.
Memopal has geographic RAID 5 technology, which provides triple-copy storage inthree different continents so that files are even protected against naturaldisasters.
Memopal is based on a Scalable On-Demand system: the space available can beincreased at any time and Memopal doesn t slow your system down. Software monitorshow many system resources are in use and adjusts to user needs. In the corporateversion, Memopal contains a component that balances all of the company s Internetresources, giving priority to main Internet services (web navigation, e-mail andFTP).
One of the most exciting functions is One-Click Sharing . This system lets youshare files measuring multiple Gigabytes with friends and co-workers. Justright-click the file you want to share and your friends will receive an e-mail witha link to the document.
Over the past 10 years, digital content production has grown exponentiallythroughout the world, confirming the UGC User Generated Content generation and thetrend launched in the mid 90s. Studies indicate that growth will continue and theamount of digital information will grow to billions of Gigabytes: 5 Exabytes(billions of billions of bytes) were created in 2002, 161 Exabytes in 2006 and by2010 that number is expected to reach 988 exabytes (source: University ofCalifornia, Berkeley).The challenge of the century is to succeed in managing and preserving all thisinformation.
Online backup is the answer, thanks to increasingly lower costs for connectivity andstorage hardware and thanks to extremely easy-to-use and affordable services.
