Building a Terminology Bridge: Guidelines for Retention and Preservation Practices in the Datacenter

posted May 19, 2010 5:32 PM by Michael Peterson   [ updated Jun 2, 2010 5:43 PM ]

ABSTRACT:

All information owning and administrating stakeholders in the datacenter have a need to communicate with each other regarding setting the business requirements for the information assets the organization has to manage. Yet, this can be hard because each department has a different vernacular that has to be bridged to even begin. Through publishing "Building a Terminology Bridge: Guidelines for Digital Information Retention and Preservation Practices in the Datacenter," Michael Peterson and the SNIA's Data Management Forum have provided a "Rosetta Stone" for the datacenter that will empower communication and collaborative efforts. 

Here are some typical uses for this valuable report that will help your organization:

  • If your organization is operating an information governance-style committee or developing service management practices and needs to develop business requirements for information assets then you need to have a common terminology and understanding of retention and preservation practices among all stakeholders
  • If your organization needs to better understand retention and preservation principles and have a common terminology that spans internal and external needs
  • If your organization is dealing with eDiscovery, litigation holds, reducing risk and exposure, trying to classify information, regulatory compliance, and/or long-term preservation, you need a tool to guide practices and help develop a common understanding of their roles in the datacenter
