    optimize daily application performance,
    management, consolidation, cost optimization etc.

    central compliance archive, prepared for
    e-discovery tasks.
  • Typically not tightly related to cost-savings,
    daily operations tasks etc...
  • Surveillance automated random sampling of
    communication based on defined surveillance
    policies/criteria's etc.

  • File Server data
  • Sharepoint Documents
  • Index files are 3-12 of archived data volume
  • Brief (3) Search of common Outlook fields and
    metadata
  • Medium (8) Single word searches of all
    content, including attachments
  • Full (12) Phrase searching of all content
  • It is highly recommend to store index (flat
    files) on SAN or DAS (I/O)

20
Indexing Differentiators
Traditional Indexing
One Huge Index
  • Requires single large disk
  • Rebuild all or nothing
  • Whole index used in search

Enterprise Vault Indexing
Federated Searching
  • Multiple indexes servers searched in parallel
  • Smaller indexes less prone to corruption
  • Only the indexes with data within the search date
    range are used
