History

[edit]

Enterprise Archive Solution (EAS), previously called Exchange Archive Solution, was originally developed by EDUCOM TS, Inc., an Ottawa-based software development firm. The first release of EAS occurred on March 15, 2000.[1] EAS was sold as commercial software for local installation. EAS was designed to archive content from Microsoft Exchange to help organizations comply with legal requirements for E-mail retention, to reduce storage load of Microsoft Exchange, improve backup, and for .pst file management.[2][3]

From 2000 to 2004, EDUCOM released multiple versions, gained market share and was eventually acquired by Zantaz, Inc. in 2004.[4] Over the next year, Zantaz added additional functionality, released version 4.0 and officially renamed the product to Enterprise Archive Solution.[5][6]

In 2005, EAS was being used by more than 2 million users and was mentioned by analyst International Data Corporation.[7] In 2007, Zantaz estimated a thousand customers.[8]

On July 24, 2007, EAS was acquired by Autonomy, Inc. of Cambridge, UK.[9] Shortly after the acquisition, Autonomy announced that EAS was integrated with Autonomy's IDOL search technology.[10]

Analyst Gartner rated Zantaz and Autonomy's products in 2007.[11][12][13]

On October 3, 2011, EAS was acquired by HP, Inc. of Palo Alto, CA.[14]

On July 29, 2014, EAS was acquired by Capax Discovery, Inc. headquartered in Morristown, NJ.[15]

On January 1, 2024, Zantaz Data Resources will be releasing an update to EAS as part of its Zantaz Advanced Archive 1.0 featuring Data Optimization.[16]
