Email volumes and usage have exploded in recent
years, with storage requirements increasing by
an order of magnitude or more. Businesses large
and small are facing numerous challenges today
in managing their growing repositories of email,
including:
Compliance concerns - Email required to be preserved
and proven unalterable for many years based on new
compliance regulations
Storage management concerns - Exploding volume of email
to archive. Limited available storage space means that users must
periodically either delete email or archive it offline
Discovery concerns - Troublesome retrieval of email from traditional tape
or optical archives when required for legal discovery or compliance can
cost companies tens of thousands of dollars
Nexsan’s Assureon archive appliances help businesses meet the real-world
challenges of email archiving. Assureon provides secure, cost-effective
means to retain and protect growing volumes of email, yet keep them online
and instantly retrievable. Businesses can now keep a complete archive of
all their employees’ email messages without requiring them to regularly
clean out their email inbox and decide which messages to keep in order to
free up space. At the same time, Assureon appliances dramatically reduce
the time required to backup current, active email by offloading archived
email into a separate, secure repository.
