The
Active Data Vault With Scan2Web Provides Content Lifecycle Automation Of
Mission Critical Information
And Documents
With extensive company content assets in your hands
today and the means to create more, you're looking for ways to protect,
extend and leverage the value of your content.
April 24, 2003 - OutputLinks - For most organizations today, content assets are
everywhere - documents and records in filing cabinets and boxes, data within
legacy systems, information on CD-ROMS and discs, or photo, tape and film
archives. Active Data Services puts the power of automating the migration of
content intensive processes into the hands of those who shape business
strategy and the lines of business. Now you can converge all your mission
critical information and documents to have content at your command using the
Active Data Vault.
Active Data's visionary Active Content Lifecycle Automation technology
and Active Data Vault is a scalable, integrated tool set that allows for
collaboration throughout the enterprise down to the department level while
providing real-time indexing, storage, compression and retrieval of business
critical information, high-resolution business documents and scanned images
regardless of their age or size.
Typically, companies need to centralize and access information in the
first six months of the life of the document.
After six months, information that remains, based on regulatory or
business guidelines, can be stored either online or offline on film media to
live out its life. From digital online real-time access, near-line or
client-server based retrieval, to offline film-based retrieval services, the
total lifecycle of the information is managed and evolves over time with
ease and Active Data Vault's unique architecture scales to archive billions
of variable content, yet enables individuals or groups to access and
distribute any page of any document or photo - instantly.
All Images Are Not Created Equal
Not all content is the same - it varies in type, size, and the
application or operating system it was created in. However, the Active Data
Vault doesn't discriminate - it will ingest virtually anything that can be
regarded as document-centric content, including scanned documents. All
documents created in your business can be automatically captured,
dynamically indexed, and archived within the system, without the need to
change existing applications or operating environments. Unlike other
archiving systems, which archive documents in their original applications -
such as Microsoft Word or Excel - the Active Data Vault archives the content
in a format that enables fast access and retrieval. By transforming the
original content into this format, you can quickly access all or part of a
document, and extract what is in effect a facsimile of it, with 100%
fidelity - in other words, exactly the same content and 'look and feel' of
the original. Because you don't retrieve the document in its original
application, and then have to search for the page or section you need, you
save significant time, boost productivity, and reduce costs.
Through integration with other components in the Active Data solution
suite, the Active Data Vault enables the delivery of documents and reports
extremely fast to whatever output channels you require - print, fax, email
or the Web.
Keep Your Valuable Business Assets Safe and Secure
When you store your original documents and backup data on-site, you are
putting your business at risk unnecessarily.
The Disaster Recovery Journal states that mother nature and human error
can work together to bring down your systems, compromise your data integrity
and cost your business money.
The Active Data Vault assures the safety of your mission critical data
and documents in our state-of-the-art, high-security electronic vault. Your
active and archived data and documents are moved to our location by a secure
vehicle transfer based on your schedule and business needs.
Your data and documents are digitally converted and electronically
couriered in to the Vault. Now the data and documents are safe and secure
from natural and unnatural disasters, and available for immediate web access
whenever and wherever you need it. It is an easy to use solution that
ensures business continuity without adding to your administrative burden and
safeguards your business against unnecessary lost data, lost downtime and
lost opportunities. |
