StoredIQ, Inc. a provider of automated Information Classification and Management (ICM) software, has announced it has completed integration between the company's ICM 5000 content-based classification and policy management software and EMC Centera CAS. Centera is a software-driven storage platform that provides capabilities for the business value from unchanging or infrequently changing digital assets. StoredIQ is also now an EMC Velocity2 ISV CAS Specialty Advantage partner and will work closely to market and sell the combined solution.

The integration combines StoredIQ ICM 5000, a content-based classification and policy management solution with, EMC Centera, an archive storage platform, giving organizations the ability to discern what information is stored in Centera, based on the content of that information. The relationship allows for contextual classification and automated policies that can copy, move, set retention, or apply litigation hold onto information going into Centera. The appliance-based software also comes in a four and eight-node cluster offering.
