Proven Methodology
Ascendant Technology Consultants combine their strong CommonStore expertise with their domain knowledge to enhance your current environment.
CommonStore Installation Review:
CommonStore is a middleware server between the email server system and the back-end archive management system. It defines and manages what to archive, when to archive, and how to archive from the email system to the back-end archive management system.
Business Requirements Analysis:
Achieving regulatory compliance is a complex and expensive process. Implementing IBM CommonStore to archive email is a right step in that direction, but if the solution is not implemented correctly, it can pose several issues in the future. Ascendant Technology Consultants review the business processes and validate them against the existing CommonStore configuration.
CommonStore & IBM Content Manager Tuning:
CommonStore depends on the back-end archive management system to store data and documents. Therefore, it’s extremely important to tune the underlying repository - IBM Content Manager - along with the CommonStore application. We review the existing hardware and software configuration and tune the system, including database, application server, storage, and security elements of your platform.
Addressing Upgrades and Migrations:
IBM Content Collector, an extension to CommonStore solutions, is the next generation solution to your e-mail archiving and mailbox management problems. For customers with older systems and prior versions of the current system,We help you plan upgrade and migration activities to move forward while maintaining and enhancing your current Compliance and other content collection needs. This includes capturing files and other content types in addition to email.
