K-PAR Archiving Software was founded in 1989 to develop and market high availability archive and storage management software solutions. Today it is one of the leading storage resource management companies supporting a range of different technologies and architectures. Used in over twenty different countries and with many thousands of different custom sites, K-PAR is the product of choice for many mission critical and data-hungry applications.

As leaders in the field of archive and storage management software, the company has un-parallel reputation for quality engineering and unsurpassed technical excellence. The company has continued to enhance its expertise in the fields of file system archiving, network storage infrastructure management, and jukebox management software and has a long history of technology innovation and supported quality solutions.

Today with the development of Archimedia ™ for Windows and ARCHION ™ for UNIX, K-PAR is able to maximise the potential of new hardware storage technologies that have exploded into the computer scene. Ultra-capacity optical discs (UDO), MO discs, Digital Versatile Discs (DVD), advanced library technologies, SAN and fibre channel connectivity have combined to give more storage choices than ever before. Traditional concepts of fixed magnetic disks for online storage and a warehouse full of magnetic tapes for backup are no longer valid. A revolution in storage technology has been underway for the past ten years and K-PAR is in the vanguard of this move.

K-PAR software not only provides customers with superior data storage, protection and archiving capabilities, but also ensures compliance to today's regulatory demands such as Sarbanes-Oxley, Sec 17-A, DOD 5015.2, HIPAA, and other industry compliance standards.

With over 5,000 installations world wide (and still growing), K-PAR is committed to supporting our customers and partners alike with a network of worldwide offices in the U.S., Canada and Europe. The future of storage lies in storage management solutions.
