Overview
SEP sesam generally supports all devices connected via standard interfaces, such as FC, iSCSI, SAS, SATA, SCSI and S3.
The device connection must be supported by the hardware vendor and correctly recognized by the operating system.
For example:
- Single tape drives
- Tape libraries
- VTL
- Storage systems
- NAS
- Cloud storage
Note
SEP sesam can use a wide range of devices. We regularly receive reports from our customers that other tape or storage devices not explicitly listed in our harware matrix also work smoothly. Customers should be up to date with the latest OS update level, device driver and firmware levels. For hardware problems with listed and non-listed devices, please contact the hardware vendor first.
The list of supported hardware vendors and devices on this page is only a selection of our most valuable partners and does not claim to be complete. If you have special requests or questions about supported devices, please contact us by email at support@sep.de.
For more information on compatibility, refer to SEP sesam OS and Database Support Matrix.

Cloud Storage
| S3 |
Any kind of cloud provider is supported as long as it provides a standard S3 (Simple Storage Service) interface (e.g. AWS). An S3 target can be used with SEP sesam as a backup target and requires the usage of SEP Si3 deduplication technology. The configuration and management of Si3 NG in an S3-compatible cloud implementation is similar to the example shown in Backup to S3 Cloud Storage.
Note
As SEP sesam uses a generic S3 interface this could also be used for an SDS appliance (e.g. SES).

As of version 5.0.0.x Jaglion, SEP sesam supports S3 as a generic interface based on the new deduplication store Si3 NG.
Some S3 targets are already supported, others have been looked at in more detail (see list below) and are currently being tested.
