The target of SEA is to automate the archiving of both standard and special email formats with a simple configuration. The SEA Enterprise Manager takes care of the many archiving jobs with an intuitive, centralized console. Additional tools including the PST Fileimporter and Media administrator, reduce the daily backup of the Exchange database by up to 80%.

SEA continuously checks which archiving rule should be applied to each email saved in the Exchange Store. SEA extracts an email that is ready to be archived from the Exchange Store and replaces it with a link. This link is stored in a relational database (Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server) and serves as a reference to the new location in the archiving medium.

Emails are split and archived as separate contents (body text and attachments). The single instance storage provided in SEA ensures that emails and attachments are archived only once. The SEA Container Storage helps avoid data compression and the unnecessary fragmentation of storage media.
