According to Brendan Sullivan of S2|DATA, legacy data remediation drives technical innovations for future projects! Here’s how.
Brendan’s blog post titled Here comes the SUN – Legacy Data Remediation highlights the inherent complexities and challenges of legacy data remediation projects, particularly in the context of diverse backup and storage formats, large data volumes (in terms of petabytes), and technical limitations of existing systems.
As Brendan noted: “Almost every large remediation we have undertaken is substantially different and unique. There are over 100 major backup formats, over 100 tape formats, and goodness knows how many file formats.”
Continuing, he said: “But here’s where it gets exciting – here comes the SUN. Through our innovative approaches, we don’t just tackle complexity; we deliver what matters most: your Sensitive, Useful & Necessary (SUN) data. After removing all the ROT (Redundant, Obsolete, and Trivial information), what remains is pure SUN – the data that truly is essential.”
So, what is S2|DATA’s “automated solution for remediation”? And how does it automated file-level processing, and the ability to identify specific mailbox user accounts across varied backup types? Find out here – it’s only one click! It’s the only way to let the “SUN” shine in! 😊
