CYA SmartRecovery And CYA Connector Now Shipping

CYA® Technologies, Inc. today announced the immediate availability of CYA SmartRecovery™ 4.0 for EMC Documentum and CYA Connector for SmartRecovery™.

Specifically developed for enterprise content management systems (ECM), CYA SmartRecovery is the only solution that enables administrators to automatically recover content and its properties in EMC Documentum systems without performing a full-system restore. With the optional CYA Connector for SmartRecovery, administrators can utilize their existing lower cost storage options by leveraging their system-wide backup solutions such as those from Legato, IBM Tivoli and Symantec VERITAS.

Juan Granados, senior IT manager for Campbell Alliance, a leading management consulting firm specializing in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, said, "There is no other solution for EMC Documentum other than CYA that can recover both content and properties. It is a necessary tool for organizations to have in its IT tool chest as part of an ECM recovery strategy."

CYA SmartRecovery 4.0 includes:

  • Improved Performance: Enhancements to the Intelli-Capture technology improve speed by up to 25 percent over previous versions, lowering recovery point objectives (RPO) for discrete content and properties. It also increases the recovery process speed by as much as 20 percent, positively affecting recovery time objectives (RTO).
  • Enhanced Recovery Options with Improved User Interface: Administrators now have faster and more targeted recovery options.
  • New Recovery for Any Foreign Language: New support for non-Latin character sets enables multinational corporations to have the same degree of protection and recovery capabilities for all their EMC Documentum repositories, regardless the language.
  • New Architecture: New Java-based architecture environment provides greater flexibility to enhance the product's functionality and ensure compatibility as customers upgrade their EMC Documentum applications.
  • New Multiplatform Deployment Options: All components can now be installed on one system, giving administrators greater flexibility to perform recoveries and other tasks from any workstation running Windows, Linux or Unix.
CYA Connector for SmartRecovery:
  • Provides Seamless Integration: CYA Connector works with low-cost storage (EMC Center and NetApp NearStore) and traditional backup systems (EMC Legato, Symantec Veritas and IBM Tivoli.)
  • Reduces Recovery Time: When prompted by the CYA SmartRecovery client server, CYA Connector locates and retrieves the information for automatic repopulation of content and properties back into the repository.
"Organizations are realizing the need to have recovery solutions that understand complex information found in ECM implementations," said Wayne Crandall, president and CEO of CYA Technologies. "Our solutions seamlessly integrate with traditional backup solutions enabling organizations to protect their information at the ECM application level and limit the impact to a single user for discrete information loss incidents."
