Company History
El Fresko Technologies was founded in 2008 as a merger between two leading companies in archival solutions, K-Par Archiving Software and INSTAR Corporation. The company continues to develop and market high-availability archive and storage management software and is consistently among the most trusted providers of data archiving solutions. For more than two decades, thousands of companies in dozens of countries around the world have trusted El Fresko with the preservation of their sensitive business information.
With support for a range of technologies and architectures, El Fresko has an un-parallel reputation for quality engineering and technical excellence. The company continues to enhance its expertise in the fields of archiving, compliance and network storage infrastructure management, and has a long history of technology innovation and supported quality solutions.
With the launch of MagnaStor™, El Fresko is leading the industry with a patent-pending solution that ensures reliable, easy-to-use disk-based archiving to protect businesses and preserve their critical data in today’s heightened age of compliance. Combined with its established products, including Archimedia™ for Windows and Archion™ for UNIX, El Fresko is able to maximize the potential of new hardware storage technologies that have exploded into the computer scene. Traditional concepts of fixed magnetic disks for online storage and a warehouse full of magnetic tapes for backup are no longer valid.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 El Fresko is in the vanguard of this move.
