As SiC capacity expanded, inspection frequency and image resolution increased with it. A top-tier substrate manufacturer needed zero-data-loss retention, cross-site collaboration, and fast access to records that may be required years after production.
Long retention meets rapid growth
Independent NAS systems created data islands and made older records difficult to locate. At the same time, automotive quality requirements meant those records could not simply be deleted.
Metadata-first traceability
Dataram IDM captures equipment files and associates them with material ID, process, timestamp, and equipment metadata. Teams query the business context first, then retrieve only the evidence they need.
A sustainable lifecycle
Hot records remain online for immediate review, while cold files transition to economical archive media. Searchable metadata stays online, enabling precise restore and batch download without browsing physical media.
