Archiving & Email Storage Management

Email servers such as Microsoft Exchange and Lotus Domino were not designed to provide long-term, large scale storage. As email databases grow in size, servers become less efficient and take longer to backup and restore.

Setting mailbox quotas has the knock-on effect of forcing users to create problematic personal archives or delete potentially valuable emails, which can create a lot of work for the IT team performing recoveries from backups.

Growing compliance and legislation demands are further driving the need for a better solution for retaining and searching emails.
