The reversibility of an archiving system guarantees that an end customer has the necessary tools to extract all the information concerning him, without depending on a third party and even less on the supplier that he might try to leave.
Dismantling costs
It is common to find that the costs of leaving a system, or decommissioning costs, are much higher than they should be. This is mainly due to the lack of reversibility tools.
Ideally, reversibility should not incur any costs for the supplier of the outgoing system.
Export formalism
Any archiving system is designed to be highly adaptable, allowing the integration of documents regardless of the formalism chosen by customers.
In this context, the export format can be relatively flexible, as long as the necessary adjustments are taken care of by the input processes.
The main issues focus on two essential aspects:
- The intelligibility of the export, because an opaque restitution of the elements could undermine the understanding and integrity of the company’s assets.
- The completeness of the export, since the absence of key elements, such as traceability, could compromise the evidentiary value of the data.
Arcsys reversibility
Reversibility, frequently neglected in the solutions offered on the market, represents a real differentiating asset for us. The Arcsys solution stands out for:
- Native tools designed to simplify and secure reversibility.
- Intuitive configuration allowing for quick and efficient implementation.
- Detailed documentation to guide our customers through each step of the process.
Thanks to these guarantees, the administrator can freely export the archives, metadata and logs, according to a self-descriptive formalism that is clear and accessible to all.
Data extraction
Arcsys allows large amounts of data to be extracted in response to a request in the context of litigation or an investigation, thanks to its configurable extraction module (EP).
Preserving the original content and metadata is essential to avoid accusations of falsification or manipulation of evidence later in the litigation.
