Reliable, Scalable and Secure

Rock-solid Reliability. Global Relay's core email archiving and monitoring compliance technology is truly enterprise-class, operating in an entirely Unix-based environment. We are the developer, owner and operator of our technology and operate our own mirrored SAS 70 Type II world-class data center facilities. In over twelve years of operations, Global Relay has never had a single incident of email loss. Our record is unmatched. Our systems are extremely reliable and cost-effective.

High Performance Systems. The technology that powers Global Relay Archive exemplifies our greatest strength. Where most archiving and monitoring systems are based solely on database technology, Global Relay's system infrastructure is based on a hybrid database/search engine core (similar to Google), which enables it to achieve unsurpassed search, retrieval and monitoring speed capabilities. A typical online search is less than three seconds. This translates into unsurpassed productivity while conducting search, retrieval and monitoring activities.

Unmatched Scalability. As a result of our search engine technology our systems are able to index thousands of gigabytes of data with no performance issues.

Top Level Security. All data archived with Global Relay is encrypted with a double encryption algorithm system using NSA and RSA encryption keys ensuring the highest level of data security available today.

Adaptable Implementation & Customization. Global Relay is able to develop and implement an optimum technology services solution in virtually every environment, regardless of whether you have an independent business with outsourced email, a single server environment, or operate a multinational enterprise with geographically dispersed servers, or have multilingual requirements. Our systems support Exchange, Windows, GroupWise, Lotus Notes, Bynari, Exim, Postfix, Qmail, SendMail or Unix Servers, BlackBerry, Bloomberg, Thomson Reuters, IM, Social Media and more. For MS Exchange, our archiving systems are able to support customers where multiple domains are captured in single stores. Our strength also lies with providing a unified solution to firms that have many domains and external entities on a variety of mail servers.
