Explosive growth in storage of email and there seems to be no end in sight.
Email is the de-facto tool for corporate communication. Its also a carrier for critical business information. Having a central access to all the email data also
lets you find all data for contractual obligations, mandatory compliances and legal matters during internal audits.
E-documents are scattered across locations including email servers, PST files on local desktops, laptops, mobile devices, backup devices and other removable
media. An email archiving solution, ensures that all these email are collected and stored centrally, much before they are delivered to the user. A central
access to all the information reduces internal inefficiencies of finding information across all these locations and dealing with deleted or lost emails. Besides
recovering lost information, having all this email data at a single spot, allows you to do a host of high leverage analytics on the data to gain business insights,
identify patterns, and learn how to optimize the business.

Besides recovering lost information, having all this email data at a single spot, allows you to do a host of high leverage analytics on the data to gain business insights, identify patterns, and learn how to optimize the business.
By keeping only recent mails on the live storage and moving older mails to a secondary storage, the mail service performance improves and email
data management is simplified.
Enterprises need to back up email data which is older and still necessary for future reference, as well as required for regulation compliance. Such email archives are indexed and have easy search to make discovery and retrieval easy. Protect your organization against all kinds of situations which cause data loss such as accidental or malicious deletion of mail, data corruption on desktops, laptops or loss of end point devices.
If its a data driven economy, then the most crucial piece for business continuity is to ensure safety and security of the information. We spoke about how older methods are complex and have run their course. We are looking at simplifying the storage piece with all the heavy lifting done by the cloud player. AWS cloud offers storage in the sky with near 100% durability, which means that you never ever lose data once you write it to the cloud store. Krishnan will speak about how AWS achieves this in the latter part of the webinar.
Traditionally ensuring safety of email/data required a lot of heavy lifting in terms of having a back strategy, backup tools, backup storage, processes and redundancy planning in case the backup itself is lost. Typically all this information was stored in a hierarchical form, in chronological order. Searching and finding information in these devices is next to impossible.
Enter a new way of storing information on elastic, infinite storage mediums on the cloud, which are well leveraged by tools like Vaultastic, to simplify the entire strategy of having a copy of the data in a separate operational infrastructure with guaranteed durability.
Once all your data, from the beginning of time is available to you, indexed and accessible in seconds, without needing to restore or locate tapes, you have ALL your information on a tap and have achieved 100x gains in productivity.
What is your vision when it comes to data management and data mining?
Our conversations with 100’s of decision makers in enterprises across industries and sizes, shows these 3 as the fundamental common outcomes required by all organisations.
One the need to be ensured that, without lifting a finger, a copy of all your data is automatically ingested into a safe, secure and reliable platform
Second the need to decentralise access to historical data so that end users are more productive with self service, when it comes to finding earlier data pieces and restoring them
Third, having access to fast discovery tools, which can help you make meaning out of all this accumulated data.
What are the bottlenecks and roadblocks in realising your ideal state for data management?
Reliability of locally deployed infrastructure. You have to work hard and spend a lot to create a storage management infrastructure, which is dependable by design and delivers 99.99% and above uptime. In addition you have to work on planning for a disaster recovery.
Elasticity of your in premise infrastructure. You have to provision extra capacity in advance to be ready for the growth. It wont grow on its own
Security of your in premise infrastructure. Your efforts will start by ensuring security of your physical infrastructure, right upto the app access layers.
Manageability of your infrastructure. This whole infrastructure would need regular upkeep, hygiene and 24/7 monitoring, In addition the backup will need to be backed up.
Capex intensive since you have to provision compute and Storage well in advance
Vaultastic vision was built around your vision or ideal state, where we see enterprises and businesses, rest assured that their data has been automatically ingested into an alternate immutable cloud storage, with very high durability and deep tamper resistant controls, which assures them nothing less than a 100% guarantee that their data is now safe.
What next?
Is only a safe backup of all the data, going to help the business improve its bottomline, topline or operations?
Here is where the other part of the vision kicks in, where each and every data piece is always online and search ready to return results instantly, which in turn helps the business leverage all that accumulated wealth of information, carrying a large percentage of the organisation’s critical data. Also traditionally archival has been in the domain of compliance or IT services, which limits its use and puts pressure on the backend to respond to seek requests for historical data. By expanding the scope of usage, safely and securely to all the end users, the accumulated archived data suddenly unlocks trapped value for the business. Each user can leverage the knowledge discovery tools, to leverage trapped knowledge, intelligence and communication, to help deliver better outcomes for the business.
Last but not the least, what goes in should come out as easily. We specifically focussed on tools to enable easy data out of information of any size (even if it means using physical means)
The essence of email archiving is to ensure that a COPY of every mail sent and received by all users is stored on the archival store in the cloud.
This copy should happen BEFORE the mail is delivered to the end user (in line archiving). Based on the policies applicable, different users can be
given role based access to the Archive consoles
A separate operational infra gives you an additional layer of safety since you now have a copy in another lcoation. In addition, knowing that a copy of your data is available elsewhere, you can freely trim your data on the primary mail platform to gain efficiencies.
The cloud platform takes away all the heavy lifting of building a reliable and high performance infrastructure to support the archival application. The most important piece of technology here is the elastic storage, which gives immense flexibility to scale automatically on demand. There is a deliberate movement of IT workloads to the cloud and for good reason. The days of in premise are over.
The cloud storage infrastructure is the most safest storage platform available today. With guaranteed uptime of the infrastructure and this extremely high durability, you are assured that once you put data on the cloud, you can forget about it. Forget means, no need to maintain or backup etc.
Another big advantage that cloud has to offer is the tremendous on-demand compute necessary to process large data volumes
Also available as a dedicated private deployment for organisations sensitive to data residency rules, and/or wanting complete control over their data.
In essence it is the father of Search. Every mail in the archive store is indexed on the various attributes of an email from the headers and message body. Certain users in the system are given access to this tool, which allows them to run almost any combination of queries across the mailboxes of users to gain insights, and learn more about the operations.
Virtually any combination of fields can be used to fire up a query. Ediscovery is a powerful search which supports boolean, grouping, partial matches, exact matches, date ranges, and many more. Behind this is a powerful highly scalable index which keeps track of every mail in the storage and can show the results in a few seconds, no matter how old the mail is.
A cloud email solution offers an inline archive, where it stores primary and archived mailboxes in the same single environment. Thus making it more difficult to switch to another email environment or use tools offered by others – essentially leading to a vendor lock-in.
Getting data IN is quite easy and builds up over time, but when you need to change your mail platform, you need to extract all the information in a short span of time, which makes it very challenging.
Therefore storing archived email data in a separate platform and location, supports not just compliance and regulatory requirements, but also frees you from getting locked-in to a particular mail platform.
