How to address data growth challenges with file & email archiving
Since the widespread adoption of the internet and cloud computing, data growth has exploded: today every 60 seconds, at least 160 million emails are sent around the world, and 1,820 Terabytes of data is created.
Left unchecked, data growth affects systems performance, but most importantly, data accessibility and the ability to comply with laws like GDPR or CCPA, because data may be too difficult to search for or access. If the organization is unable to provide customers with timely access to their data or delete it upon request, substantial government fines can occur—and internally, it is not an efficient use of resources or employees. Poor data management also negatively affects the speed and efficiency of e-discovery related inquiries, which does no help in assisting related lawsuits or investigations.
While the growth of the internet and cloud computing have contributed to data growth challenges, they also present new opportunities to manage data efficiently like never before. Long gone are the days of localized, data-specific MRP and ERP systems. With open source technologies like Hadoop and cloud platforms such as Azure, businesses are able to ingest, manage, and analyze all their data at a low cost from anywhere in the world.
SOLIXCloud is one such solution, bringing Solix’s award-winning Common Data Platform—a fully end-to-end next generation data management platform—to the cloud. Reinventing the way businesses manage their data, SOLIXCloud Enterprise Archiving in the cloud supports application retirement, email archiving, file archiving, and database archiving on a single platform. Offered as a fully managed software as-a-service, SOLIXCloud liberates IT from managing legacy data while reducing costs, improving data availability and compliance.
