IBM DB2 CommonStore for Exchange Authorized User License + SW Maintenance 12 Months CommonStore
DB2 CommonStore V8.3 integrates records management capabilities and strengthens security, search, and archiving. It also adds support for Microsoft® Exchange 2003 Server and the Outlook 2003 client.
Integrated Records Management capability
- means DB2 CommonStore for Exchange Server tightly integrates with DB2 Content Manager V8.3, the Records Enabler component, and DB2 Records Manager.
- automates declaration and classification of email or attachments as corporate records.
- lets Outlook users manually declare and classify e-mail messages or attached documents.
HTTPS support prevents unauthorized access to critical data while it is sent to or received from the CommonStore Server.
Enhanced archive and retrieval capabilities include:
- single instance store and compression to reduce storage consumption
- flexible component archiving to records enable email
- full text indexing and search on attributes, message body and attachments for easy access and retrieval
- PST file archiving to replace personal archives with centralized email archives
- policies to automate archiving by multiple criteria such as age, mailbox size, groups, and/or number of attachments
- application programming interface support to develop custom code for specific archival and retrieval operations
- annotation support through Content Manager eClient integration
Support for more than 600 storage devices includes IBM® TotalStorage® DR550 systems, EMC Centerra, Netapps NearStore and many others providing flexibility to deploy the device that is most appropriate for the content lifecycle.
Exchange 5.5 customers can use automatic message archiving to archive content in their Exchange 5.5 system before they migrate to Exchange 2000 or 2003. Migration is not necessary for previously archived Exchange 5.5 data.
DB2 CommonStore V8.3 is priced per Authorized User , providing simplicity and a lower entry point.
CommonStore archive options
CommonStore is a middleware server between the Exchange Server mail server system and the back-end archive management system. CommonStore does not store data or document, but defines and manages what to archive, when to archive, and how to archive from the mail system to the back-end archive management system.
The back-end archive management system can be one of the following IBM repositories:
- DB2 Content Manager for Multiplatforms or DB2 Content Manager for z/OS
- IBM DB2 Content Manager OnDemand for Multiplatforms
- IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM)
CommonStore exploits all the TSM storage management capabilities . TSM is IBM's enterprise solution for managing storage and protecting data across the network from laptops to mainframes. TSM supports fast backup and recovery, nondisruptive application protection, and disk-to-disk backup. Its advanced functions provide:
- automated, policy-based storage management together with reporting and monitoring to reduce daily management,
- backup snapshots to reduce cost and complexity, and server sharing and
- load balancing for self-management.
CommonStore leverages the scalability of TSM from PC servers through UNIX and mid-range servers to OS/390 mainframe servers--heterogeneous platform coverage for 37 different operating environments--and supports approximately 500 storage devices.
The companion product, TSM for Mail , automates the data protection of e-mail servers running either Lotus Domino or Microsoft Exchange. This module utilizes the application program interfaces (APIs) provided by e-mail application vendors to perform on-line "hot" backups without shutting down the e-mail server and improve data-restore performance. TSM for Mail protects the growing amount of new and changing data that should be securely backed-up to help maintain 24x365 application availability. TSM for Mail allows customer access to backed up e-mail after it has restored the entire set while CommonStore allows a customer immediate access to archived mail at a click of a button from existing user client interface, notes client or outlook, providing the best of both worlds.
The CommonStore solution can be extended with DB2 Content Manager or DB2 Content Manager OnDemand providing access for a user population beyond the messaging system users. The CommonStore archive for e-mail messages and documents can be accessed by any user who has rights to access, including messaging system clients, Content Manager or Content Manager OnDemand clients, Internet, and intranet users.
These same enterprise content management technologies can provide a complete content management solution for any content type -- document, Web content, image, fax, rich media - across diverse business processes and applications including Siebel, PeopleSoft, and SAP. Once deployed, the infrastructure is ready for all of these purposes, to gain time, cost savings, experience, and efficiency.
