EMC launches 'Source One Family' archiving
EMC is launching a new range of products focused on the issue of archiving.


EMC has announced the release of its Source One Family which is designed to archive, search and index messaging information.
This second generation archive solution will feature three new products to work in conjunction with both EMC storage and other brands such as IBM or NetApp.
The move means EMC can provide for small and medium businesses, as well as companies with 100,000 inboxes.
"We have seen a big shift in demand in the past five to 10 years for archiving, from a product that was "nice to have" over to "need to have" and growth is spiralling," said Gareth Meatyard, a product specialist for EMC.
"These new products are not a reorder of our old EMC systems. We have gone back to the drawing board to make the most robust archiving engine for our customers."
Email Management, the first of three new products, archives email from Microsoft Exchange and IBM Lotus Notes/Domino in addition to SMTP and instant messages. The interface is available in seven languages French, Italian, German, Spanish, Korean, Japanese and Simplified Chinese.
The second product is Discovery Collector. It provides high volume discovery search and collection for email archived by the SourceOne Email Management and helps with compliance and governance regulations.

Finally, Discovery Manager is an indexing appliance that automates the in-house identification, collection, preservation and policy management of unstructured content from elsewhere in a company's network.
"Like most companies, our global users rely on email as the primary means of interacting with customers. We have massive information stores that contain emails with large file attachments," said Tom Leizear, director of IT at Access Intelligence.
"During the first 40 days of production deployment, we saw a 66 per cent reduction in mailbox size with EMC SourceOne Email Management. In addition, we were able to reduce backup and recovery time from two-and-a-half hours to 30 minutes."
