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.
