Archiving

Does your system handle both passive and active archiving?

All organisations need to keep data that is no longer current, be it for regulatory compliance or for business reasons. Most organisations keep these data live, backing them up even when they no longer change. When implemented properly, archiving solutions can control costs and increase the re-use of data. These solutions fall into two groups: fixed content archiving, which is the transfer of data migrating to write once, read many (WORM) media for long-term retention, and active archiving, which focuses on collecting and maintaining less frequently accessed data on lower cost media in such as way as to make it easy for users to retrieve.

Fordway can help you separate essential from non-essential data, select archiving technology that suits your particular needs, and help you develop an archiving strategy that meets regulatory requirements.
