Tilana™ Introduces Turnkey System Enabling Hosts to Immediately Offer Cloud Storage and Sync

July 29, 2008

San Diego, CA — July 29, 2008 -Tilana Systems Corporation today announced the availability of a system that allows hosts to use Linux or Windows servers to immediately offer cloud storage directly to end-users or through a sales channel. The system has a provisioning API for integration with existing billing and support systems.

“The Tilana RealCDP system enables the immediate implementation of cloud storage while providing the customer trusted and distributed infrastructure already implemented by the hosting community, said Joe Austin, Tilana CEO. “Developers and their customers can work with the specific benefits of a hosting company that provides accessibility to data with an immediately available set of initial apps.”

At the Tilana partner web site (http://partner.tilana.com), hosts can learn all about partnering with Tilana to offer fully custom branded SaaS featuring cloud based multiple PC auto-sync, real-time automatic CDP backup, and a web accessible Personal Digital Archive™.

Fully documented Tilana Cloud™ APIs (http://cloud.tilana.com) are also freely available to hosts or developers, for quickly building and launching custom Web applications and desktop software that interface directly with Tilana RealCDP enabled servers and storage.

Specific APIs allow for direct access to different features available in either the client (PC/Mac/Mobile) or server side (data center) components of the Tilana Cloud server-based data protection, sync, and archive system.

Simple applications with fewer UI capabilities are also easily produced with Tilana. The depth of integration in custom built applications that use Tilana technology is left completely up to the developer.

Storage scaling is easy with Tilana RealCDP because the system can instantly span a CDP object across multiple storage servers.

Tilana RealCDP installs on Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and 2000, and uses Microsoft SQL Server 2005 for databases to store user owned content and user authentication data, which can span across multiple storage databases, on multiple storage servers, with no need for multiple installations of Tilana RealCDP.

Microsoft IIS 6.0 with ASP.net 2.0 is required to implement the web access portion of the Tilana user interface.

More information about Tilana RealCDP is available on the Tilana enterprise web site(http://enterprise.tilana.com).

The new beta version of Tilana RealCDP for Linux currently installs on Red Hat Enterprise 5.x, and requires MySQL v5.x on the server for end user authentication and scalable user owned content storage.

Interested beta testers can sign up at the company web site (http://enterprise.tilana.com/beta).

The desktop software called Tilana Client™ for Windows Vista, Windows XP, and Windows 2000, can be fully co-branded or white labeled and includes encrypted real time CDP, folder and file synchronization across multiple computers, unlimited versioning, all through a secure and Web accessible Personal Digital Archive™ on the Tilana RealCDP enabled server.

The Mac OS X version of Tilana Client, currently in development, automatically syncs content from Mac to PC and back, while continuously backing up to the Tilana RealCDP enabled server in between. Unlimited version history is saved on the server where it is continuously updated with each change saved on either OS. Files stored on the server as backup copies, or as offloaded archive, remain there until manually deleted by the user.

The Tilana Client desktop software installs in about a minute and requires little if any configuration. Users can choose to enable an unlimited number of computers with the software, and then selectively protect and/or synchronize files and folders on those computers via their Personal Digital Archive™ on servers enabled with Tilana RealCDP.
