| November 16, 2007 |
Hutchinson, KS - It could be the first museum gallery in the world devoted to interpreting the storage and management of records, data, and motion picture assets.
A new 6,000 sq ft gallery within the Kansas Underground Salt Museum in Hutchinson describes one of the two businesses operating in the salt mine - Underground Vaults & Storage.
Exhibits Include:
UV&S & World History - Nearly 50 years of UV&S growth, compared to events that have shaped the world.
Disaster Protection - Risks that drive many companies and institutions to protect information & assets in the salt mine.
Motion Pictures - Why do so many motion picture companies store their assets in a Kansas salt mine? You'll see the answer, as well as several artifacts on loan from a major motion picture client - Costumes, props, posters and animation sketches.
Oil / Gas Data - These companies spend millions of dollars looking for oil & gas, UV&S helps them protect that valuable information.
Healthcare Information - Medical records are important, private - and often stored in the salt mine.
Data Storage Evolution - From Hollerith Punch Cards to high capacity data tapes...data storage is critical and ever-changing.
Life Size Storage - Just because you can't walk inside the UV&S secure storage facility, doesn't mean you can't get the experience.
