Enterprises investing in technologies that address information retention, compliance and availability most often start with email archiving. Understanding what is motivating these investments from a business perspective and the restrictions of many technology offerings is critical before adoption and deployment of an integrated content archive platform. In Murphy's blog, he will share insights on satisfying legal and regulatory requirements while giving direction on where content archiving technology is headed. Also addressed will be business concerns, such as litigation requests for Electronically Stored Information (ESI), that content archiving solutions seek to manage.

"2008 will not be the year we see enterprises stand up and accept full responsibility for eDiscovery, but it is fast becoming the year that organizations solidify plans for proactive identification, preservation, and collection of data," said Murphy in a recent entry. "My advice to any organization - get on the bus now or get left behind."
