AXS-One Extends Support for Lotus Notes

By Greg McNevin

January 29, 2008: AXS-One is showing off the latest incarnation of its Compliance Platform, adding new features and functionality to extend its relationship with IBM’s Lotus Notes.

Unveiled at Lotusphere 2008, version 3.7 introduces enhanced and new functionality for mailbox management and product administration, as well as enhances the performance and flexibility of the entire archiving process according to AXS-One.

Among the high performance enhancements in the new version is a streamlined, multi-threaded archiving process that focuses on key requirements for enterprise class implementations. Version 3.7 specifically addresses broader bottlenecks like metadata and internal data structures such as Addressees, Folders and Views.

While many users assume that removing e-mail attachments will result in efficient mail files and servers, these structures use more significant resources than attachments. AXS-One says this new version restores mailbox efficiencies by optimising these structures without any changes to end-user experience.

Overall, the firm claims the changes result in unprecedented processing improvements and ease of use, reducing the burden on Lotus Notes and Domino administrators while addressing growing issues associated with policy-based retention of increasing volumes of data.

“Corporations are concerned that as technology, regulatory and business environments continue to change, their archiving solution can rapidly evolve to address those changes and anticipate future requirements,” said Bill Lyons, CEO, AXS-One. “Version 3.7 not only allows customers to optimise their Lotus Notes and Domino operational environments and realise costs savings, but also to address massively evolving demands in the areas of litigation readiness, risk management and regulatory compliance.”
