Automated Tape Extraction Module From Index Engines Available
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on Tue, February 12th, 2008
Eliminates the need for legacy backup environments during eDiscovery
The Automated Tape Extraction Module combines with the Index Engines Tape Engine to make traditional offline data discovery methods obsolete. This new solution automatically recognizes the backup application used to archive data on tape allowing for direct indexing and search for all responsive files and email. Once data is discovered it then can be instantly extracted without needing to leverage the original backup software. Index Engines supports both legacy and current versions of backup applications including CA ArcServe, IBM Tivoli Storage Manager, Symantec NetBackup and Backup Exec, and EMC NetWorker.
Previously, retrieving relevant content from tape required that the contents first be restored using the original backup software used to generate the tape. Depending on the age of the archive, the backup software may no longer be available, making this an impossible process. By using Index Engines Tape Engine with the Automated Extraction Module the eDiscovery the process is now compressed to restoring only the relevant tape data. Following a simple metadata and/or content search to determine the relevant content, files and/or email can be selected and extracted from tape without using the original backup software.
“In today’s business climate mergers and acquisitions are commonplace,” said Jim McGann, vice president of marketing, Index Engines. “Included in these deals are often mountains of tape data in proprietary backup formats – with no easy access. The new Automated Extraction Module gives litigation support teams and IT administrators easy access to the content in these inherited archives.”
Tape Engines 2.5 includes support for tape libraries for the scanning of
large volumes of tapes. Also a new tape management module is included that
automatically generates a catalog of the tapes loaded in a library. These
features alongside the automated extraction capabilities are now
commercially available. Pricing for the Tape Engine platform starts at
$50,000. Base Price for the Automated Tape Extraction Module is $25,000.
