Advance Info Services Enhances Information Lifecycle Management Strategy with EMC Documentum ApplicationXtender and Tiered Storage Platforms
Singapore - Tuesday, May 24, 2005
AIS is an outstanding example of a fast growing number of businesses in Thailand that has significantly benefited from an information lifecycle management strategy. To achieve a paperless environment with better management and control of its customer, legal and human resources information, AIS worked with Neoplus Co. Ltd, an EMC value-added partner, to purchase and implement ApplicationXtender and Centera within its existing information technology infrastructure.
Mr. Suphot Punnachaiya, Assistant Vice President - Technical Systems Support, AIS, said, "We were dealing with too much paper in our environment and needed a more efficient way of storing and retrieving our information, while complying with regulations. EMC Documentum ApplicationXtender is a highly efficient solution capable of storing, organizing, and managing huge amounts of electronic documents kept in the Write-Once-Read-Many (WORM) medium. With ApplicationXtender, AIS is not worried about losing any crucial information."
AIS's information management infrastructure combines the Documentum ApplicationXtender document and image management suite with EMC DiskXtender®, a policy-based, filesystem-centric solution for Windows. Using DiskXtender, AIS can enforce permission-based access to content, ensuring sensitive information is safely protected. DiskXtender's policy engine moves infrequently-accessed content to secondary storage devices to optimize costs and maximize efficiencies. With the EMC Symmetrix and Centera storage platforms, AIS has built a robust tiered storage infrastructure for its critical business content.
