AvePoint Partners with Hitachi Data Systems (HDS) Singapore to Provide Robust SharePoint Storage Management and Efficiency
Singapore (PRWEB) January 17, 2017 -- AvePoint, the Microsoft Cloud expert, today announced a local strategic partnership with Hitachi Data Systems in Singapore. HDS is a wholly owned subsidiary of Hitachi, Ltd. (TSE:6501). This partnership will help Singaporean customers reduce total cost of ownership, backup time, and input/output operations per second (IOPS) requirements for Microsoft SharePoint. DocAve Storage Manager optimizes SharePoint storage by transferring unstructured data from Microsoft SQL Servers to Hitachi Content Platform, and DocAve Archiver applies intelligent lifecycle management to data in order to fulfil requirements around information retention when audited.
“Despite the overwhelming benefits around team collaboration and document management that SharePoint provides, Singaporean organisations are still facing challenges around cost efficiency, as well as auditing and compliance,” said Dr. Tianyi (TJ) Jiang, Co-CEO and Co-Founder, AvePoint. “This partnership between AvePoint and Hitachi Data Systems allows more organisations to realise these benefits without being held back by cost of ownership and lack of robust capabilities for data retention in order to stay in compliance with industry and government regulations.”
In order to establish lifecycle management capabilities, AvePoint and Hitachi Data Systems work together through the following products:
DocAve Archiver, part of the award-winning DocAve Software Platform, enables true enterprise content lifecycle management by helping organisations reduce SharePoint storage costs, improve performance, and enhance compliance with records and information management policies.
DocAve Storage Manager, also a part of the DocAve Software Platform, effectively mitigates the negative consequences of exponential content growth by implementing and enforcing binary large object (BLOB) externalisation strategies throughout SharePoint’s lifecycle.
Hitachi Content Platform enables organizations to properly manage, govern, protect, and share data so that they can improve productivity, gain efficiency, and further their transformation of IT.
"Storage costs for collaboration platforms like SharePoint can become a massive burden for some organisations," said Joe Ong, Managing Director, Hitachi Data Systems Singapore. "Our partnership with AvePoint helps customers efficiently offload data to our platform, but also access strengthened compliance auditing capabilities to ensure data is stored safely."
