The combination of grid storage technology with Permabit Dynamic Information Services lends compelling advantages including: * A highly scaleable architecture that readily grows to meets long-term archive needs * A very efficient system that further increases in efficiency as it grows * Node-based design that eliminates the need for major data migration events in the future. * Automated load balancing The fine tuning of a computer system, network or disk subsystem in order to more evenly distribute the data and/or processing across available resources. For example, in clustering, load balancing might distribute the incoming transactions evenly to all servers, or it might redirect them * Automated de-duplication of information down to the sub-file level for optimal use of storage * Non-disruptive replacement of storage nodes * Automatic data redistribution re·dis·tri·bu·tion n. 1.

The system's modular design In the context of systems engineering, modular design — or "modularity in design" — is an approach aiming to subdivide a system into smaller parts (modules) that can be independently created and then used in different systems to drive multiple functionalities. has been optimized for field serviceability (system) serviceability - The ease with which corrective maintenance or preventative maintenance can be performed on a system (e.g. by a hardware service technician). Higher serviceability improves availability and reduces service cost. Serviceability is one component of RAS. to enable the dynamic expansion necessary to meet future information requirements The information needed to support a business or other activity. Systems analysts turn information requirements (the what and when) into functional specifications (the how) of an information system. and to provide automated redistribution that makes costly migrations a thing of the past.
