Index Engines
IIS partners with Index Engines to help enterprises achieve faster and more cost effective access to data stored on local area networks and backup tapes. Index Engines’ patent-pending software allows companies to search and extract data quickly and easily.
Data locked away in proprietary backup formats on offline tapes, or stored on network attached storage has limited access for demanding discovery needs. Index Engines automates the index, search and extraction process of retrieving data contained on tapes and network servers, at high speeds and without the backup software.
With Index Engines’ platform offline tapes and networks are directly indexed without restoring or copying data and are immediately discoverable. Users can quickly find what they need, collecting only relevant files and email.
Tape Indexing
Index Engines Tape indexing eliminates the burden of full tape restore. This approach flips the data discovery process from “Restore Everything then Discover” to “Discover then Restore Relevant Data.” This methodology reduces the time and cost associated with access to backup tape data by +80%. By eliminating the need for costly and time intensive restoration, Index Engines provides access to data locked away on tape that is more efficient and saves money.

LAN Indexing
Index Engines indexes network data at high speeds using Network Data Management Protocols (NDMP) or multi-threaded NFS/CIFS. Reaching speed up to 1TB per hour per node and scaling to a billion objects per system, this platform is making enterprise data accessible.

Implementing the Index Engines’ platform can benefit enterprises in the following ways:
| • |
Litigation Support – Supporting eDiscovery requests from legal has never been easier. Simple content and metadata indexed and searched across all enterprise data delivers a deterministic result set of responsive files and email to extract to litigation hold.
|
|
| • |
Risk Assessment – Understanding the contents of all enterprise data allows for early review of sensitive content. Automatically classify risky content such as credit card or social security numbers. Sensitive key words or suspect custodians can be searched for and isolated.
|
|
| • |
Backup Infrastructure Consolidation – Changes in corporate strategies and mergers and acquisitions can create a tangle of inherited, unstructured archived data. Direct, fast indexing of tapes and servers allows the comprehension and extraction of relevant content without the need to maintain no-production backup environments.
|
|
| • |
Storage Optimization – Maximize the investment on network attached storage through indexing, analyzing and deduplicating what is being stored.
|
|
| • |
Tape Remediation – Significantly reduce liability hidden in offline tapes through intelligent remediation. Perform searches using litigation custodians and key words to uncover files and email without relevant data that can be deleted, saving storage costs
|
|
| • |
User Productivity – Allows users to search for network content according to their existing network security permissions and leverage existing content
