Managing and Searching Collections of Text

Most information in organizations resides in semi-structured, primarily textual documents, not in structured, organizational repositories. The volume of reports, submissions, emails, contracts, policy documents and similar documents in most large organizations is beyond the capacity of most systems. The TeraText suite of products provides the foundation for a range of solutions for large-volume, high-complexity collections of documents. Emails and attachments are large collections of data. It is estimated that approximately 80% of communications in companies and government today are through email.

Managing and Searching Email and Attachments

Easy to create and send, emails have become the preferred form of written business communication. To ensure continuity and accountability, businesses must be able to permanently preserve their emails, recover them quickly and effectively, and find key information in seconds. SAIC's TeraText Searchable Archive for Files and Email (SAFE) is an email management platform designed to preserve emails and attached files, creating a comprehensive, easily searchable archive.
