Our Work Portfolio
Amount of Data: 2 terabytes
Data Type(s): Outlook PST / Lotus NSF / E-files
Services Req: Indexing / De-Duplication / Native Processing / Image Conversion
Turnaround: ~50gb per-24hours, rolling deliveries
Summary:
Our client was tasked with processing over 2 terabytes of email over the course of the project for on-line native review. They had the capability to handle the on-line review piece but the volume of data was not something they were equipped to handle in-house. Having worked with us for the past 2 years, they knew that we are quite capable of handling terabyte level cases, especially native reviews, so we were awarded the project.
The data came in waves from a few gigabytes to almost 100gb at times with expected turnaround times of 48hours. We were able to process each batch of data on a rolling basis in under 24hours every time giving our client more time to put the data on-line for review.
After the client selected which files were responsive to the matter we then converted the sets to images and produced custom cross-referencing load files for production. The project is on-going and so far we have processed over 6million documents and some 1million images. Over 70% of the documents were de-duplicated prior to review saving the client months in review time.

Amount of Data: ~29gb
Data Type(s): Outlook PST / AOL PFC / E-files
Services Req: Indexing / De-Duplication / Searching / Image Conversion
Turnaround: 16 hours
Summary:
Tasked with a rapid-fire document request, our client needed to have 29gb of email and e-files processed overnight. A long-time client, they knew we would be up to the task. We got the call early afternoon and shortly after that we had the hard drive loading to our network.
We configured GridLogik and assigned 20% of our capacity to complete the project in under 24hours. By morning GridLogik had indexed, de-duped, searched/tagged, formatted, and converted all 29gb of the data without any hick-ups. All that was left was to build the image database, number, QC, and export to a hard drive.
Much to the delight of our customer, we delivered the processed data back the following morning, 16hours after we received it and ahead of expectations.

Amount of Data: ~250gb
Data Type(s): Outlook PST
Services Req: Indexing / De-Duplication / Searching / Reporting / Native Processing
Turnaround: ~5.5 days
Summary:
With MS Outlook PSTs reaching over 15gb each we knew this project would test our processing limits, but GridLogik pulled through and quickly processed the entire project in under 3days, BUT it was the endless searching that made this a good case study.
Initially the project was easy enough; process all data “natively” to concordance for native review by a local law firm within 3 weeks and no searching. Then the deadline went from 3 weeks to 1 week and the shear volume of data needed to be reduced so that the review could be completed. Keyword searching was the only method in the given time frame that would facilitate this new deadline.
Keyword searching alone is pretty easy, but when there are over 100 different search categories and over 50 subcategories searching can become extremely complicated. This was the task at hand. After GridLogik was done with the processing we searched the over 2million documents with the aforementioned search categories.
We then reported on the search results to our client listing broken-down details such as total file types, pages, size, words, keywords hit, etc. all by category, subcategory and custodian. We did that about 20times or so until the client was satisfied with the results. That along with processing some 250gb of massive PSTs files was completed in ~5.5days. Our client was blown away at our speed and flexibility and was able to complete their review on time.

Amount of Data: ~8gb
Data Type(s): Orchestria Email
Services Req: Consulting / Software Development / Indexing / De-Duplication / Image Conversion
Turnaround: 24 hours
Summary:
A new client contacted us about a project that consisted of approximately 8GB of data extracted from Orchestria (a front-end document management program). The client’s other vendors had no idea of what to make of this data, as it looks very unstructured at first glance.
We picked up the data and within a few hours had determined how the data was structured and linked. We quickly parsed the data and then let GridLogik go to work. We horizontally de-duplicated the data and extracted all text and metadata.
Within 24 hours we had delivered the results back to our client. His team loved the turnaround time, the delivered product, and how easy we made it seem.
