StoredIQ has announced an addition to its enterprise eDiscovery solution, a new application called eDiscoveryManager that addresses the range of legal discovery requirements, including search, identification, collection, early case assessment (ECA) and analysis, as well as legal hold and review.

StoredIQ 6.0 integrates the eDiscovery application to offer a step-by-step, straightforward legal-focused workflow. It also provides the ability to perform real-time analysis on data in its native location, prior to preservation and collection, to quickly perform ECA.

StoredIQ has also made architectural enhancements that solidify its speed and performance of data identification and collection, allowing businesses to meet time-sensitive compliance, governance and legal discovery requirements, even in petabyte-scale environments.

Throughout the eDiscovery process, the StoredIQ Scoreboard displays a running count of the files eliminated from consideration, automatically calculating the potential savings from the downstream review cycle.

Prior to any collection of data, StoredIQ Analyze Anywhere gives lawyers the ability to dynamically tune searches, review analytics, and modify custodian lists to accurately narrow the preserved and collected set of data subject to the “duty to preserve,” mitigating further legal risks and providing a legally defensible audit trail.

The StoredIQ IIM Platform appliance now includes an upgraded 64-bit software stack, including the operating system, applications, database and search/index engines, while server nodes have been upgraded to Dell PowerEdge R610 with Intel Xeon Processor E5520, and on-board storage that leverages NetApp NAS.

With these and other architectural enhancements, a single StoredIQ appliance can achieve performance levels of 24TB of full-text indexing per day, and through a federated solution, performance can scale to well over 100TB of full-text indexing per day. In addition, StoredIQ 6.0 also offers embedded disaster recovery technology as well as support for Microsoft Exchange and SharePoint 2010.
