Index Engines, a provider of enterprise discovery technology, has announced enhancements to its 3.2 platform to include support for simultaneous indexing of multiple streams of data from backup tapes.

This new functionality is designed to dramatically increase the ability to process large amounts of tape data within tight time constraints. Processing up to six simultaneous streams of tape data reaching speeds up to 1TB/hour is now possible. Combining Index Engines’ automated approach toward tape discovery at these high speeds makes enterprise tape remediation and large scale eDiscovery projects cost effective and achievable.

With the direct indexing speed for tape data increasing six-fold, enterprise tape management and remediation projects have become even easier. Index Engines’ platform enables enterprise IT and litigation support teams to deduplicate, deNIST, search and extract tape data at speeds approaching an unprecedented 1 Tb/Hr/Node rate that has been validated for LAN data indexing.

Large scale tape discovery enables the practical remediation of historical backup tapes. Index Engines’ complimentary tape assessment program shows how organizations can save millions in annual offsite storage costs and return their investment in Index Engines in less than one year.
