The installation of email archiving
solutions is a high growth area for AIL Consulting and
as a result AIL fully appreciates the difficulty organisations
experience when balancing email archiving requirements,
compliance policies, performance requirements, and end-user
demands for more storage.
AIL Consulting has considerable experience installing solutions
utilising the following Email archiving products:
Symantec Enterprise Vault
Symantec Enterprise Vault 7.0 provides a software-based
intelligent archiving platform that stores, manages and
enables discovery of corporate data from email systems,
file server environments, instant messaging platforms
and content management and collaboration systems. Enterprise
Vault uses intelligent classification engines to manage
data, improving a company's ability to retain and protect
corporate information while reducing storage costs and
simplifying management.
Key Benefits
- Eliminate quotas, message size restrictions and give
users a mailbox of virtually unlimited size while controlling
message storage growth.
- Migrate all existing PST file data into the archive
enabling IT to effectively achieve PST eradication.
- By reducing the online message store by 50 - 75% through
archiving, Exchange and file server environments can
recognize faster backup and restore times.
- Retain a copy of all email messages sent and received,
ensuring they are kept for the appropriate period of
time required to meet regulatory or legal retention requirements.
IBM CommonStore
DB2® CommonStore for Exchange Server connects the fast
growing messaging and groupware platform, Microsoft® Exchange
Server, with the industry-leading Content Manager, Content
Manager OnDemand, or Tivoli® Storage Manager.
CommonStore processes e-mail and attachments eligible for
archiving and automatically off-loads the server. Two strategies
offer smaller capacity requirements and faster performance
for your Exchange Server(s):
- Archive complete mail documents - off-load selected
e-mail from your existing Exchange Server to an external
archive, moving both attachments and e-mail messages.
- Archive file attachments only - keep the messages online
and archive just the bulky file attachments. When you
need them again later, just click retrieve. CommonStore
immediately retrieves the files from the archive -- for
simple display or for reattachment to the mail document.
Key Benefits
- Higher productivity -- Exchange Server documents are
archived and retrieved within seconds and still immediately
available after several years. Search times are shortened.
Operations are more efficient.
- E-mail and document content security. E-mails and attachments
are protected against unauthorized access.
- Operating cost savings -- Centrally administered e-mail
archives automatically off-load aging items in batches,
based on administrator-defined profiles and parameters.
Space saved by offloading aged items cuts maintenance
costs, archive administration, and storage costs for
your Exchange 2000 systems.
- Storage capacity -- Optical disk jukeboxes and tape
libraries can store billions of documents on a single
storage device.
