Cloud based Small to Mid-Market Archiving prepares for shift to Google Apps

 

According to a Google representative, they are preparing to include Postini as a standard email service to control spam, and will be migrating users for eDiscovery features to Google Vault.   See http://blogs.wsj.com/cio/2012/08/21/google-prepares-customers-for-postini-shutdown/.

Gmail includes a free tool (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/outlookmigration) to migrate your Microsoft Outlook .PST files to Google, and they will appear as a separate folder.   They will allow you to migrate your existing archives to a format that is compatible with Google Vault archiving and eDiscovery features.

Stay tuned, as we’ll have more to report about Google Vault in future blog posts as we put together more information about the Gmail email format and eDiscovery options.
