Archiving Methods:


Professional Archive Manager for SharePoint archiving improves MOSS performance by significantly reducing archived file size.

Archived documents are replaced by a link in the MOSS Portal which point to the stored file. This link (HTML shortcut) is held in a database (ORACLE or MS SQL server) and refers to the actual archived documents in the storage media.

The file itself is directed to a storage media via the integrated HSM (hierarchical storage management). Documents that have been saved several times are centrally archived and duplicates are eliminated. End users are still able to access and edit the document as usual.

When a shared document is opened, edited and archived again, Professional Archive Manager for SharePoint archiving recognizes the edits and stores a new version of the document. All versions of an edited document can be accessed within the SharePoint application by authorized users.


Possible SharePoint Archiving Methods:

  • Archive files older than n-time
  • Compress files larger than n-KB
  • Archive immediately when a file is saved
  • View maximum versions of a file
  • Archive by file type
  • Archive when shortcut is created in MOSS portal

Thank you!

Product Reviews

Pros We were having a hard time trying to keep the size and performance of our database server down. This software cut the size of our DB by about 60% and it's not CPU spiked all the time anymore.
Cons I wish there was a maintenance mode where it would warn us of possible problems or things to consider.
