- New integrated releases of HP TRIM and Autonomy ControlPoint
deliver on HP's meaning-based information-governance vision
CHICAGO, Sept. 24, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- ARMA
International Conference and Expo -- Autonomy, an HP Company,
today announced the industry's first and only integrated solution
for automatically applying policy, based on meaning, to both
structured and unstructured data, regardless of format or location
within an organization.
The new, integrated releases of the HP TRIM records management
and Autonomy ControlPoint policy application products enable
organizations to understand the concepts and ideas contained within
their data. This ability to understand the meaning of
information is the foundation of HP's meaning-based
information governance vision, and allows businesses to automate
the application of a governance policy based on the meaning held
within content.
The new features of HP TRIM 7.3 and Autonomy ControlPoint 3.0
are built on Autonomy's Intelligent Data Operating Layer (IDOL)
platform, which allow organizations to identify the location and
compliance status of their information assets, and then apply the
correct organizational policy. The policy includes security,
storage, and retention settings for each asset. This enables
organizations to achieve a new level of governance by removing the
significant burden of traditional manual approaches.
"HP is delivering on its promise to demonstrate tangible
synergies from its Autonomy acquisition," said Sue Clarke, analyst at Ovum, a leading industry
analyst firm. "The meaning-based information governance platform
underpinned by IDOL, is an example of how Autonomy is bringing
together different products from both the Autonomy and HP's
stables, integrating them, and creating solutions-based approaches
to address real issues faced by organizations."
The new integrated solution enables customers to leverage
Autonomy ControlPoint's ability to automatically identify and
classify business records using Autonomy IDOL's meaning-based
analysis and, if appropriate, declare and manage these business
records via the HP TRIM record repository. Autonomy ControlPoint
can apply policy to content across multiple repositories, which
eliminates the need to move content or duplicate data, enabling
customers to reduce storage costs while mitigating risk.
"Businesses need a comprehensive information governance
solution to automatically and consistently administer policies and
determine risk," said Randolph Kahn,
ESQ., founder of Kahn Consulting and Delve Information
Technologies and author of "Information Nation". "Autonomy takes a
unique approach to implementing and managing policies to govern the
lifecycle of information."
Traditional, siloed approaches to policy application are
typically limited to managing structured data from business
applications that reside within a single system like Enterprise
Resource Planning (ERP). These antiquated approaches struggle to
effectively manage the surge of diverse human information, such as
audio, email, video and social media, which is overwhelming many IT
organizations due to its growth and complexity. These traditional
solutions typically cannot automate the application of policy,
forcing companies to take a manual approach to governing tens or
hundreds of millions of data assets. This limits an organization's
ability to holistically and effectively manage corporate
information for compliance and enterprise value. The inability to
defensibly dispose of content further increases compliance risks,
as well as IT resources and storage costs.
In addition to the integration with Autonomy ControlPoint, the
new release of HP TRIM 7.3 also delivers new capabilities
including:
- Automatic classification of all records in HP TRIM to increase
transparency and eliminate manual overhead
- Expanded access to third-party systems via Autonomy IDOL
Connectors to break down silos and to manage-in-place without data
relocation
- Unified universal search and view across diverse unstructured
data sets and files including Microsoft® SharePoint files to
improve productivity
- Enhanced performance with IDOL-powered indexing to improve
search effectiveness
"Information Governance has become a new way of describing
the critical elements of a records and information program that
insures and documents compliance," said David Steward, director of Records, Husch
Blackwell LLP, an Autonomy Information Governance customer.
"As a member of the Chicago
symposium on law firm Information Governance, I can state that my
firm sees this area as essential to our delivery of quality
service. Much of what a firm possesses belongs not to the
firm, but to the clients. Holding this information creates a
fiduciary responsibility. "Fiduciary" means "to hold in
trust". Can our clients trust us with their
information? And how do we demonstrate that trust is properly
placed? I believe it is our duty to consistently ensure
compliance and document success through our Information Governance
processes."
"Managing the exponential growth of data is becoming a
significant challenge for both businesses and government
organizations," said Neil Araujo,
general manager, Enterprise Content Management, Autonomy, an HP
Company. "Autonomy's unique ability to understand, manage and
classify 100 percent of an organization's data makes information
governance practical on a large scale."
