Which information can safely be disposed and which needs to be kept?

This is quite a crucial question with potentially far-reaching consequences. However, often the answer is not obvious. Besides the daily needs of the business, legal regulations such as GDPR need to be considered. Once the decision to retain an information is made, further aspects must be taken into account.

How can you guarantee that information remains readable and comprehensive (interpretable), even when experts and the software originally used are no longer available?
How do you ensure information is not only stored, but you are able to find and deliver it within reasonable time and effort?
How do you gain the most benefits from you archiving solution?

A model for continuous improvement – A typical journey

When introducing InfoArchive we recommend a three step approach:

Decommissioning of legacy applications

Take all data out of your legacy applications and put them into a central archive.

Avoid costly maintenance for legacy servers, operating systems, software
Reduce personnel cost, special know-how for support becomes unnecessary
Reduce complexity, store structured and unstructured data in one single unified system

Relieve current applications

Move data that is rarely, if ever, accessed from your live systems and put them into the archive as well.

Less data in your current application improves their performance
Simplify future migrations with a reduced data volume

Create additional value

With all your information in one system you can now combine data from different systems to create new value.

All data can be accessed quickly and easily via a uniform interface
Combining data from different sources allows for new applications and new internal and external services
Comprehensive analysis produces valuable insight
