Hexamail Vault

Hexamail Vault provides a centralized automatic email archiving solution. Highly efficient full-text indexing and compression algorithms ensure that the most scalable and high performance email archive is generated automatically.

Hexamail's email archive software leverages state of the art indexing and compression technology to create the most compact and high performance index of email data. Inferior solutions often simply push emails to relational databases or worse, file systems. Such systems suffer from poor scalability, lengthy query/discovery times and extremely high storage requirements: often requiring more space for the archive than the original email!

High speed archiving

Native high-performance C++ archiving code ensures that emails are archived and indexed in realtime. The unsurpassed performance allows the archive to be used live by end-users to retrieve old, deleted, or difficult to find emails from a web-interface.

Massively Scalable

Archiving of 100s of millions of emails in a single archiver is possible, allowing many years of emails to be archived on a single server or drive.

Low Storage Requirements

All email content is retained in its original format in a compressed store, allowing 100% accurate records to be retrieved while minimizing storage. Emails are automatically deduplicated as they are archived. Save costs of storage devices, upgrades to servers and backup technologies and procedures. For example: A typical 12 Gigabyte Exchange server store is compressed down to 1.6 Gigabyes of archive, allowing a shorter retention period to be enforced in Exchange and retention of around 7 times as much email on the server!

Fulltext search

Full-text Bayesian weighted indexing automatically takes place on archiving. This allows your valuable resource of archived emails to be leveraged for knowledge management, auditing and discovery within your organization. Bayesian analysis leads to highly relevant results to searches.

Genuine Archiving

Some inferior archiving solutions simply push email content into a relational database. This can be costly in database licenses, slow to retrieve email and extremely demanding of disk space and other machine resources. Be sure to check the licensing implications and costs of such systems before purchase. Hexamail is a complete solution requiring no third party database licenses.
