Enterprise Vault Archiving

Enterprise Vault Archiving is the archiving core of the Enterprise Vault Complete suite. It moves content from mailboxes and file servers into a central archive according to defined policies, while access remains seamless for the user through shortcuts. Single instance storage keeps one copy of an attachment instead of dozens, markedly slowing primary storage growth.

All content is indexed, so the archive becomes a searchable corporate knowledge pool rather than a mere storage tier. Retention periods, legal hold and disposition rules are managed from the policy layer, and every action is written to an audit log. The classification, surveillance and eDiscovery modules run on top of this archive — without the archive layer in place, none of them can produce meaningful results.
