Abstract: Techniques for facilitating electronic discovery (eDiscovery) data storage in a backup environment are disclosed. In one particular embodiment, the technique(s) may be realized as a method of operating a computing system to facilitate electronic discovery (eDiscovery) data storage in a backup environment. The method may comprise storing, using electronic storage, a backup data set associated with an organization, processing, using at least one computer processor, the backup data set to extract metadata associated with data items in the backup data set, processing the metadata to identify a subset of the data items that are associated with eDiscovery, and generating an index of the metadata that identifies the subset of the data items in the electronic storage that are associated with the eDiscovery.

Abstract: Techniques for operating a computing system to facilitate visualization of a backup environment are disclosed. In one particular embodiment, the techniques may be realized as a method of operating a computing system to facilitate visualization of a backup environment. The method may comprise performing a backup service for an organization and rendering a graphical user interface that presents a plurality of views of the backup environment for the organization on a sub-organizational basis.
