Hewlett-Packard is coming at enterprise storage organization problems from a
Microsoft SharePoint—read that nonstorage—vantage point.
HP on Feb. 8 introduced a new version of its Web-based records management
package, TRIM (Total Records Information Management) 7, which enables an
enterprise to manage all of its Microsoft SharePoint Server records within a
single environment—regardless of the source of each document.
TRIM 7 features two new modules:
—TRIM Records Management provides
access to all the SharePoint Server content held in TRIM, filed directly from
SharePoint Server; it also features U.S. Department of Defense 5015.2 v3
content-management certification.
—TRIM Archiving helps reduce the risk of data loss when reclaiming
storage and system resources from SharePoint Server. This module archives
specified list objects in SharePoint Server—or even entire SharePoint Server
sites—to TRIM. Users may take entire SharePoint Server sites offline while
maintaining uninterrupted access to the data.
TRIM 7 can be used for corporate regulatory compliance, especially involving
the 2006
updates to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, which require businesses
to be able to quickly locate and produce digital information for a court of law
in the event of litigation.
"This helps organizations respond faster to e-discovery rules for
litigation, such as those from the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, as well as
legal investigations and compliance audits," Patrick Eitenbichler,
director of worldwide marketing for HP's Information Management unit, told
eWEEK.
"Organizations today are being hit with Content 2.0 explosion and a flood
of regulations around the globe. HP TRIM 7 makes it easy and transparent for
organizations to respond proactively to these compliance requirements,"
Eitenbichler said.
"Our customers in regulated industries tell us that one
of the most immediate needs they have is [to do] with managing content created
within collaboration tools such as SharePoint. This tight integration with HP
TRIM 7 and Microsoft SharePoint is critical right now for global
organization."
