A major corporate asset is the
information held in many millions of
E-mail messages and other electronic
documents. The safe storage and retrieval
of electronic information is vital to the
enterprise. While companies need to
secure and retain this valuable data,
they dont want to tie up their
front-line systems with aging messages.

Safe storage, easy retrieval
DIGITAL Enterprise Vault is an enterprise-level
archival, storage, and retrieval service for
Microsoft Exchange electronic mail and documents.
DIGITAL Enterprise Vault centrally archives large
volumes of information, enabling corporate
control and availability of documents. It stores
and retrieves with original message headers,
giving users "live" mail for easy reply
and editing. It also allows users to easily
search and retrieve documents, based on multiple
attributes, using the AltaVistaTM
search engine. DIGITAL Enterprise Vault combines
DIGITAL expertise in highly scalable, highly
reliable systems with Microsofts popular,
feature-rich mail/messaging product. |
Complete mail solution
DIGITAL Enterprise Vault provides a centralized
archival/retrieval service on Windows NT,
augmenting Microsoft Exchange to offer a reliable
and complete mail solution for large enterprises.
When used in conjunction with Exchange v5.5 SP1,
DIGITAL Enterprise Vault complements the
journaling capability which enables enterprises
to meet federal E-mail requirements. Commonly, individual
systems may not do backups, and users probably do
not back up to floppies. Even if they do,
recovering messages from system backups is slow
and difficult. With DIGITAL Enterprise Vault,
mail servers store to the Vault, and multiple
mail servers can connect. The Vault service can
reside with the Exchange server, or it can be
connected via a LAN or WAN. Use of the Vault
service allows off-site archiving for disaster
tolerance.
Background agents
Vault and/or delete files from mail servers, and
all archived files are AltaVista indexed, so
finding them is a snap. Individual users can
initiate archiving directly, saving mail
administrators time and resources. Restoring
files is just as easy, with users able to search
the Vault index and restore messages as
"real" messages. Shortcuts to archived
files can be retained, and users can restore
directly from these shortcuts
|
Enterprise-wide control and security
DIGITAL Enterprise Vault uses Windows NT security
services to protect your valuable data. Storage
is reliable, and can be physically
compartmentalized within the Vault. Centrally
defined policies control the whole service.
Policies or "rules" can be customized
to provide flexibility. For instance, you can
Vault, then automatically destroy, after a
specified period of time; or you can Vault
company confidential mail separately. You define
the parameters; DIGITAL Enterprise Vault will do
the rest.Files
can be optionally managed via an HSM
(hierarchical storage management), allowing older
files to be moved to less-expensive media so that
cost of storage per message is minimized. Because
the front-line systems are freed up, they run
more efficiently, reducing the number of
administrator calls.
