StoredIQ and Dell Team to Offer Market-Leading Intelligent eDiscovery and Litigation Readiness Solution

StoredIQ Joins Dell's DX Object Storage Partner Ecosystem

Austin, TX – May 12, 2010 – StoredIQ, a leading provider of Intelligent Information Management and eDiscovery technologies, announced today that the company has teamed with Dell to integrate their market-leading technologies, combining intelligent eDiscovery and litigation readiness with enterprise data management.  StoredIQ is among the first Independent Software Vendors (ISV) to pass certification testing and join the new Dell DX Object Storage Partner Ecosystem. Designed to address the continuous growth of electronically stored information (ESI), the Dell DX Object Storage Platform uses a self-managing, peer-scaling architecture that enables customers to access, store and distribute billions of files or other digital content, from archiving systems all the way to the cloud. Paired with StoredIQ’s ability to intelligently identify, collect, analyze and preserve unstructured information, the comprehensive joint solution allows companies to manage electronic information more efficiently, reduce eDiscovery and storage costs and mitigate legal risk.

StoredIQ’s Intelligent Information Management Platform integrates with Dell’s DX Object Storage Platform to support a particularly important aspect of the eDiscovery process – automated legal hold and document retention.  To address the significant risks associated with spoliation (modifying, deleting, losing, or not having access to electronically stored information), StoredIQ gives organizations critical visibility into and control over their business content, enabling them to make more informed decisions about the management, retention, and disposition of their data. By copying or moving potentially matter-relevant data to a segregated, protected repository using the Dell DX Object Storage for the immutable preservation of ESI, StoredIQ helps companies manage potentially relevant data in a legally defensible manner. 

Key Highlights of the Joint Solution Offering:

  • Reduces the risk of spoliation by improving the ability to implement and manage litigation holds on all data across the enterprise, irrespective of geographic location;
  • Provides a legally defensible audit trail of all actions performed during collection, preservation, culling and production;
  • Offers the ability to craft a more informed legal strategy through Early Case Analysis;
  • Implements litigation-ready response capabilities, containing the cost of electronic discovery and improving cost predictability;
  • Ensures that information is accessible to authorized personnel only; allowing outside counsel to work with in-house legal teams;
  • Facilitates the disposition of data using automated retention policies, further reducing legal risk;
  • Provides enterprise-class scalability and superior performance through a fully integrated appliance offering.

 

“Trying to manage petabytes, and eventually exabytes of unstructured data, without the right information management solution puts companies in a vulnerable position - something no company can afford in today's litigation-prone and highly regulated business world,” said James Schellhase, president and CEO at StoredIQ. “Combining StoredIQ’s proven technology with Dell’s innovative new intelligent data management offering gives customers a smart, highly scalable solution to manage their information assets more efficiently.” 

“StoredIQ’s eDiscovery technology is a natural fit with Dell’s intelligent data management approach. It allows customers to deploy a self-contained appliance-based eDiscovery solution utilizing Dell products including the DX Object Storage Platform,” said Brett Roscoe, senior manager, Dell Enterprise Storage.
