Organisations invest millions of pounds in their journey to the cloud. Binary10 has been supporting the migration of both back and front office data since 2018. However, IT departments are left with the problem of what to do with the legacy data to truly eradicate the technical debt. We developed The Vault to solve this problem.
Why us.
The Vault goes beyond rigid legacy systems by providing flexibility to archive data in its original formats, while overlaying a view on top of the original structure that reflects the latest systems in use. This approach enables fast, intuitive, and insightful retrieval of information, ensuring that archived data remains secure, compliant, and accessible when it matters most.

Testing principles.
1.
Security first.
All archived data is protected using encryption, role-based access, and secure storage protocols.
2.
Compliance-oriented.
Archiving adheres to governance such as GDPR, DPA 2018, and internal company data policies.
3.
Preservation of original format.
Data is stored in its original format to maintain integrity and usability.
4.
Separation from BAU Analysis.
Archived data solution should support future ad-hoc data requests. Use of The Vault to support business-as-usual analysis should be limited and we recommend this is carried out in a separate solution, such as a data warehouse.
5.
Data Lifecycle Management.
Establish clear policies for data retention, archiving, and
deletion/obfuscation based on business needs and compliance mandates.
6.
Regular testing and monitoring.
We periodically test data retrieval processes and monitor the health of storage systems to ensure accessibility and integrity.
7.
Comprehensive archiving policy.
Define what data gets archived, for how long, and who can access it, ensuring consistency and compliance across the organisation.
