high Stability.<\/p>\n<p>Now with the demands of regulatory compliance and the challenges of exponential data growth and associated high costs of storage infrastructure, <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"Integrated Solutions on ECM reduce, reuse, recycle\" href=\"http:\/\/www.isminfo.com\/index.php?option=com_jambozine&#038;layout=article&#038;view=page&#038;aid=6084\">Steve Jones of Integrated Solutions<\/a> introduces another mnemonic to describes a best-practice approach towards data management and storage: 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle).<\/p>\n<p>To shrink the storage space needed for infrastructure, some organizations are finding that dramatic space reductions are possible by adopting technology like data deduplication of redundant text and graphic data.\u00a0 Rather than saving fully rendered documents in PDF and office document formats, these organizations have found that a better strategy is to save data in a more efficient format and then transform the data &#8216;on-the-fly&#8217; to the final output data format.\u00a0 For example, storage space can be shrunk by saving only the data that is needed to rebuild on-demand PDF documents for presentation.<\/p>\n<p>Saving raw data and rendering documents on-demand can save tremendous amounts of storage space.\u00a0 Some companies report being able to shrink their data storage needs by as much as 90% by doing this.<\/p>\n<p>The three R&#8217;s for how to improve storage efficiencies are:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reduce<\/strong>.\u00a0 Organizations should audit the type of data that they are storing and evaluate whether some sort of deduplication or storage format changes could result in storage savings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reuse<\/strong>.\u00a0 Multiple copies of shared data components can be identified and eliminated to free up space.\u00a0 A good example of this are email attachments.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recycle<\/strong>.\u00a0\u00a0 The repurposing of data for use in newer generation documents and presentations allows users to generate new content more quickly and also enables the reduction of storage space.<input type=\"hidden\" id=\"gwProxy\" \/><!--Session data--><input
