Options with File Store Provider Multiple File System-based Stores Leverage Oracle 11g DB ILM Capabilities Creating Custom File Stores
File Store Provider
Content Lifecycle Management
UCM Multiple File System-based Stores FS
Normal FS for
active
items
FS
Cheaper/slower disks for
inactive
items
Remember, items can be moved between stores by simply updating metadata!
•
Many low cost storage options can be mapped/mounted as FS locations
• Fujitsu • NetApp • EMC •
Use retention rules to move items from
active
store to
inactive
store
