An advanced disk based backup volume accumulator, geo-duplication and management system for HE and SME. A quick and low-cost way to make an environment more robust and data more accessible by archiving in multiple places. This replication also provides fast retrieval of archived data from all node hosting locations. A Perl installer creates the system.

Nodes can be dedicated to storage or used for existing services over unused bandwidth. DIASER works in user space over SSH. The software is based on DIAP/LTASP which is a storage architecture designed to structure months to years of long term sustainable archiving space including retrospective archiving.

The application is V1.0.3 beta-2. Please try the software (an rpm is available) which will install onto: RHEL, Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu Server and Ubuntu LTS (be sure to read the Quick Start page, see left).
