Compared with DIVA, XenData Archives employ a simple architecture with a standard Windows cluster and a high-performance disk cache. The XenData approach takes advantage of the massive advances that have occurred in computer technology over the last two decades since DIVA was first developed. A XenData cluster delivers a highly scalable archive with a level of performance that would require a DIVA with a much more complex configuration. Furthermore, XenData takes advantage of modern industry standards, including offering a high-performance file system interface, compliance with Active Directory and use of the industry standard LTFS tape format.
