Virtual Tape Libraries

Historical enterprise data is locked away in proprietary backup formats within virtual tape libraries (VTLs) with no easy access for demanding discovery needs. Although ESI discovery is known to be difficult, recent case law now demands that this data be made accessible. Index Engines unlocks the data residing within VTLs, making individual files and email easily accessible. 

Index Engines automates the process of searching and extracting data from VTLs. With Index Engines platform backup data is directly indexed and the data is immediately searchable.  Users can quickly find what they need, extracting only relevant files and email, rather than restoring the entire VTL contents for processing. 

The Index Engines platform is focused on providing comprehensive and efficient indexing of data across the enterprise. Regardless of format or location, our technology provides a unified index for access into your data assets, at unmatched speeds, scale and value. Contact us to learn more.

  • Litigation Support – supporting eDiscovery requests from legal has never been easier.  Simple content and metadata search on data indexed directly off VTLs delivers a deterministic result set of responsive files and email to extract to litigation hold. 

  • Risk Assessment – understanding the contents of offline data allows for early review of sensitive content.  Index Engines technology automatically classifies risky content such as credit card or social security numbers.  No more waiting for offline content to be restored in order to find and review potential liabilities. Index Engines allows offline content to be immediately searched so a course of action can be based on actual information.

  • Storage Optimization - summary reports detailing storage utilization and content based reports, such as duplicate data and security, allow for improved management of storage resources.


  • Direct indexing of VTL content.  Supports all common VTLs.

  • Direct indexing of data in popular backup formats including: Backup Exec, NetBackup, NetWorker, TSM and ArcServe.  No need to have the backup software installed.

  • Full text and metadata indexing of unstructured files and email allowing for comprehensive search results.

  • Indexes combine with network data indexes for a unified, deduplicated results set across online and office repositories.

  • No metadata spoilage, data is indexed directly off the VTL and not modified.  All access and modified dates/times are kept forensically sound.

  • “Internet like” query tools for Boolean, pattern, similar and metadata search of VTL contents to find all relevant files and email.

  • Unique document signature generated at indexing for dynamic deduplication query capability. Returns only unique files when searching, eliminating duplicate files and email.

  • Reconstruction of files to allow full review of content without ever restoring the original file.

  • Extract files and emails (individual emails or a full database) from the VTL without the use of the backup software.
