Information archiving addresses a variety of business requirements, including legal discovery readiness, regulatory compliance and email storage optimization. To be prepared for legal discovery and regulatory events, organizations must know where data is stored and be able to collect, search, and retrieve that data in a short period of time. Organizations must also have the ability to enforce policies that comply with specific regulatory and geographic requirements, and that adhere to internal information governance objectives. When managed improperly, exposure to legal and compliance risks can be significant and challenge an organization's ability to defend its processes. This can lead to costly fines, guilty verdicts and damaged reputations.
An archive also provides a centralized, searchable repository that provides end users with access to historical information. This access should be simple and intuitive, with a familiar user experience that fits existing work habits and enables greater productivity. Additionally, an information archive should address all of these requirements while also supporting the IT objective of reducing the cost and management complexities of exploding data volumes, both within managed systems as well as in systems outside the direct control of IT.
