Email Server Overloaded? Mailstore Maxed Out? Storage Quotas Exceeded? Mail Backups Take Too Long? Mail Recovery Takes Too Long?

EMAIL STORAGE CHALLENGES Overloaded Email Servers Email servers are constantly overloaded with the growing volume of email, the increasing size and volume of attachments, and the number of redundant copies being propagated by mail.

General Overload The overloaded mail servers cause other systems to overload. For example, the daily backups take longer, and beyond a certain size in the mail store, can slow down considerably. The data recovery also suffers the same problem, and will be exacerbated by incomplete backups. Access for remote users also becomes problematic, especially with large attachments. As problems propagate, the administration overhead rises disproportionately.

Expensive Fixes When the mail-store gets too unwieldy, the typical approach of getting another email server gets very expensive. Each mail server requires its own hardware and software; email licenses; backup and recovery software; spam, anti-virus and content filter software, and so on. Maintenance fees are extra. In addition, the administrative overhead increases with each server.

Lost Productivity The enterprise user typically spends up to 40 minutes a day managing their mailbox, performing tedious chores such as deleting email to stay within quota, or trying to find deleted or lost email. For a 10,000- employee corporation, this can equate to a loss of productivity exceeding $30 million, annually. This does not include losses due to data not found, or email administrator overhead trying to recover lost files.

Lost Corporate Information Enterprises keep a finite amount of email online to maintain manageability. This prompts users to maintain their own message stores on their desktops. In either case, both the enterprise and the end-user end up with loss of access to important message content. Lost is the ability to "take a pulse" of company activities, or search for particular expertise, or even assessing patterns of incoming inquiries. In short, the enormous potential of leveraging e-mail’s valuable storehouse of corporate memory and communications is also lost:

ZipLip's Unified Archive (UA)'s Storage Management Can Help ZL UA Storage Management solves the storage problems with:

Storage Management/"Stubbing" Large email or attachments are automatically offloaded from the email servers, leaving behind a "stub" or jumplink. The end-user still retains access to the attachment by clicking on the jumplink. However, the storage requirements of the user would now be reduced by as much as 80%. Such a drastic reduction also solves other issues, such as enabling an "unlimited" user mailbox capacity, centralized searchable repository of mail content, faster backup and recovery times and savings from avoiding the expansion of email servers. Note that the email servers will also perform faster since much of the workload is now shifted to the archive.

Integration of Other Archiving Capabilities In addition, ZipLip Unified Archival can also add other archiving functions on the same system. A fully configured UA can include: - Storage Management or “Stubbing" - Compliance Archiving - Legal Discovery - Email Content Management

ZipLip Unified Archival (UA) offers the unique power to integrate all these powerful archiving applications onto a single system, and the benefits are significant: - avoids costs of separate systems - integrates the power of all systems - centralizes/simplifies administration

The ZipLip Unified Archival (ZL UA) for Email enables: .Compliance with regulations . Improved Exchange/Notes performance. Email content management

Concern about compliance Governments and courts of law worldwide now recognize email as an integral part of business records. Accordingly, management and retention of email are increasingly subject to regulations, particularly for financial, healthcare and publicly traded corporations. As penalties escalate with fines and prison terms, non-compliance has become a very risky proposition.

Concern about storage management Email usage and volume have exploded in recent years, with storage requirements per user increasing by an order of magnitude or more. The email systems are slowing down under the stress and acquiring additional capacity drains budgets and resources.

Concern about discovery While corporations have invested consider- able resources in content management, the paradox remains that most of the corporate intelligence lies buried in email and attachments and remains effectively inaccessible.

ZipLip's Unified Archival To solve these challenges, Zip Lip's UA enables management of email compliance, storage and content, on a single integrated platform.

Email Compliance ZL UA satisfies email retention requirements for regulations, including SEC 17a-4, NASD 3010 and 3110, HIPAA, Sarbanes-Oxley, etc. It also offers automated tools for compliance, including sampling and approval. Hierarchical storage management and offloading to tamper-proof media are included.

Email Performance Since most of the capacity of email servers is taken up by large email and attachments, ZL UA dramatically improves email performance by offloading and "stubbing" them. Such stubbed data is transparently retrieved on demand. Offloading the workload translates to savings from deferred spending on email servers.

Email Content Management ZL UA offers on-demand searches of email and attachments. Searches can be restricted by hierarchy and privileges, so that content access can be controlled, while the value of the archive can be maximized by end-users.

The ZipLip Platform The ZL UA integrates these key capabilities on a scalable platform, which runs in all popular operating environments, including NT, Solaris and Linux. Highlights include 100% Java/J2EE; open standards such as Web services, WebDAV, .Net, etc.; and extreme scalability, combined with modular flexibility. Browser supported: Internet Explorer.

Legal Discovery Costs High? Search Too Slow? Handling of Client-Attorney Privileged Email Cumbersome?

"With the surge of lawsuits requiring companies to produce electronic records as evidence, preserving messages is a matter of great importance to virtually all companies. Without an email archiving solution, it is not uncommon for a company to spend a million dollars trying to recover one or two required messages from backup tapes via a laborious and time-consuming manual process, which can take weeks or even months to complete." (Source: The Radicati Group, Inc.)

ZipLip's Unified Archival (UA)'s Discovery enables Enhanced Legal Discovery & Improved Litigation Support

Ziplip UA Discovery enables authorized employees to instantly search and review archived content to respond to sensitive legal matters. Log all emails to ensure compliance. Quarantine results in user- defined folders for refinement and further analysis. Centralizes archiving of corporate email and attachments. Quickly searches, retrieves, refines, manages, and reports on searches

Analyzes searches, with customizable full-text searching and filtering capabilities . Write Once Read Many (WORM) technology used to guarantee non-tampering of original document

High Volume Processing - Save Money and Resources A key strength of ZipLip is its ability to do high volume mail processing. Systems that cannot scale have significant problems migrating large mail volumes quickly. With legal discovery, time is of the essence. Migration is necessary in almost all cases where legacy data is involved. Such migrations typically involve massive quantities of data and result in severe time pressure to get the proper data indexed in order to proceed with evidentiary discovery. Zip Lip's scalable searches can cut down on costs and response time.

ZL UA Discovery - Faster Search, Faster Refinement, Less Exposure ZipLip is well known for its pedigree in high performance search capability. This translates into quick searches, with nearly instantaneous feedback. By contrast, it takes much longer with legacy search systems; consequently, administrators may minimize the number of searches, resulting in unrefined data or more exposure than is required.

ZipLip Unified Archival (UA) offers the unique power to integrate all these powerful archiving applications onto a single system, consolidating and lowering overall cost by centralizing and simplifying administration.
