MessageSolution and FalconStor Together

To deliver solution for enterprise archiving, DR, and high-availability

MessageSolution, Inc., in email and file archiving solutions for electronic discovery, litigation support, compliance and storage management, and FalconStor Software, Inc. announced a partnership to deliver a turnkey archive, backup, disaster recovery and high-availability solution for today’s enterprises.

This collaboration brings together two award-winning, best-of-breed products for an integrated enterprise-class solution: FalconStor Network Storage Server (NSS) was named a Silver award winner in the ‘Backup and Disaster Recovery Software and Services Category’ of Storage magazine’s 2008 Products of the Year awards, while MessageSolution was the winner of the Enterprise Email Archiving category in Network Product Guide’s 2008 Best Products & Services Awards.

We are very pleased to announce the synergy of MessageSolution’s high-performance archiving software and FalconStor’s innovative storage virtualization technology,” said Jeff Liang, Chief Technical Officer of MessageSolution. “This alliance will provide businesses with a scalable turnkey solution that meets the growing need for records retention, data protection and recovery in the enterprise.”

MessageSolution and FalconStor NSS work together to provide business solutions that help companies control increasingly large volumes of digital data, to decrease storage hardware requirements, meet compliance requirements, improve backup efficiency and reliably recover 100 percent of data while minimizing system downtime.

By deploying MessageSolution email and file archiving technologies together with FalconStor NSS, organizations can automate a comprehensive records retention program while providing users with immediate access to archived data,” said Bernie Wu, vice president of business development at FalconStor. “Data can be recovered instantly in its native format, minimizing system downtime and the accompanying productivity loss.”

MessageSolution archiving software’s support for all enterprise email servers, including Microsoft Exchange, IBM Notes Domino, Novell GroupWise and major Linux/UNIX-based email servers, makes MessageSolution a top choice for organizations of all sizes and industries on all server platforms. MessageSolution employs policy-based archiving or archiving in real time to capture data before fully indexing all contents and metadata for comprehensive searching of enterprise archives and expedited restoration of archived items.

MessageSolution archiving compresses and deduplicates data so that data stores are pared down to only truly business-critical information and makes that information easily searchable,” Liang explained. “Businesses can store archived data to FalconStor NSS to leverage its outstanding performance with high availability, minimize disk capacity investment with thin provisioning and ensure that information contained in the corporate archive can always be quickly and effectively restored.”

Granular retention policies ensure data remains searchable in the archive, as long as it remains relevant or legally viable. After relevant email, attachment, file or instant message data has been archived by MessageSolution archiving software, FalconStor NSS technology delivers local physical and virtual server protection from local data centers or remote disaster recovery sites. FalconStor NSS extends archive data protection to remote sites using powerful IP-based replication. FalconStor NSS devices in branch offices can replicate archived data to a data center, eliminating the need for remote-site tape backups of the archive. Data-center-based FalconStor NSS devices can replicate archived data to a remote disaster recovery site. In the event of a site-level disaster, administrators can quickly restart business operations at the DR site, using individual standby servers or consolidated virtual machines. Once the facilities at the local site are repaired, the remote replicated data can be written back to the local site’s archive to resume normal operations.
