HOLMDEL, NJ — May 11, 2010 — Index Engines, a leader in enterprise discovery solutions, today announced the enhancement of its 3.2 platform to include support for simultaneous indexing of multiple streams of data from backup tapes. This new functionality dramatically increases the ability to process large amounts of tape data within tight time constraints.  Processing up to six simultaneous streams of tape data and reaching speeds up to 1TB/hour is now possible.  Combining Index Engines’ automated approach toward tape discovery at these high speeds makes enterprise tape remediation and large scale eDiscovery projects cost effective and achievable.

 

With the direct indexing speed for tape data increasing six-fold, enterprise tape management and remediation projects have become even easier. Index Engines’ platform enables enterprise IT and litigation support teams to deduplicate, deNIST, search and extract tape data at speeds approaching an unprecedented 1 Tb/Hr/Node rate that has been validated for LAN data indexing.  Large scale tape discovery enables the practical remediation of historical backup tapes.  Index Engines’ complimentary tape assessment program shows how organizations can save millions in annual offsite storage costs and return their investment in Index Engines in less than one year.

 

“Stockpiling legacy backup tapes is a liability for any organization,” said Jim McGann, VP of Information Discovery for Index Engines. “Increasing our capacity to index tape data with multiple streams produces unprecedented results, allowing our clients to expedite the collection process and make tape management and remediation an achievable goal.”

The Index Engines platform is the only product on the market that performs direct indexing of stored data. This capability renders information locked away on historical backup tapes easily accessible - without the need to restore the content.  One platform seamlessly indexes, searches and separates relevant content from the mass of enterprise data, regardless of location, format or age. Index Engines is now taking orders for the 3.2 platform release, and its capabilities are also available through the company’s network of more than 30 eDiscovery service providers.
