Cdws Solution Architects Solving Archiving Problems

cdw.com/archiving. Data archiving is the systematic approach to storing, managing and searching for files, e-mails, instant messages and other application data. Archiving provides a single-instance store of data in a central storage device, allowing you to free up disk space by eliminating duplicate files.

Archiving lets you define data retention policies for various data and users. Such policies ensure the proper storage of data and deletion when no longer needed. Data archiving enables users to perform advanced searches. For example, e-mails or instant messages can be searched and flagged for legal review during an e-discovery process, or prevented from being altered.

This video gives an overview of archiving best practices from a CDW Solution Architect.
