Abstract: The invention relates to systems and methods for archiving business objects, particularly unstructured information from email and journaling agents and file systems. The systems and methods include a remotely installed archiving agent on a target server connected via VPN to a source system at a client location. The target servers are located at a remote Tier IV, SAS70 certified data center that is staffed by operators monitoring the archive process. The systems and methods include the movement of data from individual target servers to individual SQL servers to a data warehouse which provides support for a web portal. This web portal allows for enhanced search capabilities across different file types of archived business objects.
