Building Ai Data Archive 1.0 I A Legacy of SuccessOver 25 years ago, we launched Advantage Systems Professionals in Pittsford, NY, as the first of ourindependently owned and operated tech partnerships. Since then, our auspicious success in the techspace has benefited everyone who has had the resolve to invest, create, innovate, adapt, and persevere.Two of our more initiatory tech developments over the years include being the first to earn the FedRAMPAuthority to Operate with Autonomic Resources and now our Ai Data Governance Tool Box.FedRamp Authorization for the First Cloud PlatformOur Autonomic Resources partnership blazed a trail for our remarkable problem-solving developmentefforts in the world of first-generation and next-generation tech platforms. Launched in North Carolina withour Managing Partner, John Keese, Autonomic Resources developed the groundbreaking FedCloudPlatform, ARC-P, to become the first to secure the highly coveted FedRamp Authorization for a cloudplatform for federal agencies.Over a decade ago, the Obama Administration recognized the need to transition to a secure clouddeployment model for all 450+ federal agencies. Autonomic Resources answered the call to develop thehighest-level-security federal cloud platform [based on the stringent NIST demands] that could be utilized byall federal agencies [including the Department of Defense] and all of their potential providers. Remarkably,we delivered the first FedRamp Authorized Cloud Platform well ahead of industry giants like AWS, Azure,Google, and IBM. Once authorized, we brokered a highly successful sale of our FedCloud Platform to CSC,a leading federal agency contractor. This ensured that our FedCloud Platform, ARC-P, would gain maximumexposure and instant recognition among all federal agencies.Also of note was our Capax Global partnership’s successful engagement with United Airlines [prior to CapaxGlobal’s successful acquisition by Hitachi Data Systems]. While United Airlines and Microsoft were buildinga new reservation system in Azure, they came across a myriad of challenges that only Capax Global couldsolve. As a long-time Microsoft Azure Partner, Capax Global, under the guidance of founding partners Jerryand Jessica Hawk, delivered unbelievably complex and technical solutions to some of the world’s largestcompanies, and their work with United Airlines was no exception.

Ai Data Archive 1.0 I Closing CommentsTony WalkerFounding Partner, The Advantage CoMy first foray into tech was over 40 years ago when I launched Computer Head Start in Williamsville, NY.From there, we have had a variety of successful adventures, from the Advantage Computer Co toGetSony.com [built exclusively for Sony in the 90s]. Along the way, we developed expertise in eCommerceas well as IT staffing, but it wasn’t until Tom Thomson transformed our IT Staffing partnership into ITProfessional Services that we became fully engaged in tech development. Since then, we have beenfortunate to have been at the forefront of many tech initiatives, most notably being the first to receive theFedRAMP ATO with our Autonomic Resources partnership.ZNZ ResourcesToday, we have invested in our ZNZ Resources partnership as the foundation for all our current and futuretech initiatives. As our Development Partner and CEO, Tom continues to deliver extraordinary results withour ZNZ Resources partnership that put us at the forefront of technology innovation [in spite of our rathermodest size and resources].We are Data ArchivistsRecently, Tom and I have been working on modernizing data archiving. Starting in 2007, with our CapaxGlobal partners John Baiocco and Jerry Hawk, we developed an impressive ability to deploy, service, andsupport data archiving solutions. With ZNZ Resources, we have been able to extend our data archivingservices to include advanced software development. Over the past few years, we have focused ourresources on modernizing our stable of data archiving solutions [e.g. EAS, HPCA, Zovy Archive, NearPoint,etc.]. However, data archiving today is dramatically different from when all of the most powerful archivingplatforms were developed. Nearly all of the current leaders in data archiving are still only able to archivedata that is archivable - and that leaves massive amounts of data in the lurch. Unfortunately, we were stuckin the same predicament.Building the Modern ArchiveAs we began work on the development of an advanced archive solution that could not only archive datathat was archivable but also connect to and archive the massive amount of other Unstructured Data thatrepresents over 90% of an organization's total data, our lead developer and President of PremCloudResources, Ronan Curran, pointed out two unassailable facts: first, we needed to build a next-generationdata connector to be able to securely and efficiently connect to a myriad of data sources, and, second, wewould need a tool to identify, enrich, index, classify, profile, and route all of the escalating Unstructured Dataaccessed, especially massive amounts of troublesome Dark Data.Kubernetes ClustersAlong the way, Ronan and his team pointed out a third unassailable fact: we needed to build ournext-generation end-to-end Ai Data Governance solution on a new architecture that was future-proof,containerized, AI-infused, easily deployed, updated, and serviced, and able to handle massive amounts ofdata securely and quickly.21
A Universal & Agnostic SolutionWhat happened next was absolutely remarkable. Our Ai Data Bridge not only modernizes our legacyarchiving solutions but because of its advanced architecture, Marco Pizzolo and our Powered by PremClouddeployment team are confident they can just as easily deploy Ai Data Bridge with any of an organization’slegacy data management and storage solutions being deployed on-prem or in the cloud.From Mimecast to O365 to Digital Safe to Smarsh to Proofpoint to Veritas EV and onand on, Ai Data Bridge can readily modernize any storage solution, enabling anyorganization to have the capability to easily and securely connect, identify, enrich,index, classify, profile, and route any and all of their massive amounts of stored data,including their metastasizing Dark Data.Not only is this the Data Governance Cure for Dark Data, but …As mentioned in this profile, when we first deployed an alpha version of Data Detect at GE for its divestiture,we got another remarkable surprise to go along with the solution’s universal and agnostic deploymentcapabilities - it also dramatically reduced storage costs while providing a remarkable ROI. In GE's case,$30M [10 times the actual cost of the deployment].As with any development adventure, there are a multitude of surprises along the way, and while Tom and Iwould like to say we envisioned a solution that could modernize any data management and storage solutionout there, Cure Dark Data, and save money well beyond the cost of deployment - frankly, we ended up witha whole lot more than we expected.Up next is our Ai Data Bridge ROI Calculator, a tool that is being developed by Deniel Lambrakis and theZNZ Resources team in conjunction with Robert Keus and the BRTHRS team. The Ai Data Bridge ROICalculator will allow any organization to easily estimate its total data storage, costs, potential savings, andROI. Already, in beta testing, it has proved to be an eye-opener.Today, Tom Thomson and I, along with our partner John Baiocco, are excited about the potential of whatZNZ Resources is developing, but we are equally as proud of what Powered by PremCloud can deploy,service, and support.Hopefully, Ai Data Archive 1.0 will transform your data and save your organization millions along the way.Thank you for your participation.22
