E-Discovery Standard Edition for Microsoft Exchange VS Discovery Accelerator

Hello, I was wondering if anyone knows the difference between these two products - E-Discovery Standard Edition for Microsoft Exchange and Discovery Accelerator. Thanks!

  • Without getting deeper into the details of you specific needs I think you will probably be fine with 1 server for EV\DA and SQL on it's own.  Worse case scenario you have to move you DA to a new server.

     

  • So the E-Discovery Standard Edition for Microsoft Exchange will include the licenses for Journaling and Discovery Accelerator in the same SKU.

    You can be DA seperaterly if you want, but probably better to bundle it.

  • Thanks Tony, so in a smaller environment (about 400 mailboxes), would it be common to load DA on the main EV server? I just want to use 1 SQL box and 1 EV box for this setup, however, it seems that the disk IOPS for DA can be very large.
