Centralized Management
The processing and export of electronic data is designed for control from a centralized console, allowing one individual to control and monitor all processing. Jobs can be created, configured, prioritized or re-prioritized, monitored and controlled from one computer. Utilizing Windows Remote Desktop, one user can control multiple processing environments in one or more data centers from any location.

Scalability
While eCapture uses a centralized management console for job control, the heavy work of electronic file processing is carried out with distributed automated ‘worker’ computers that perform all the functions of identification, indexing, extraction, tiffing and export. These ‘worker’ machines are configured once for the proper SQL server and then automatically receive task assignments to process files. Scaling is achieved by increasing the number of computers, not personnel.

Stability
Each eCapture ‘worker’ application utilizes multiple threads in memory to allow processing multiple files in parallel on each machine. The application monitors every thread and adjusts for any application or problem file issues. Periodically, each worker machine clears all applications and memory to maintain stable and reliable memory and file processing. A centralized service monitors the activity of every ‘worker’ on the system and each ‘worker’ remains in communication with the central service. Any loss of communication is immediately accounted for by the service and all files for that worker are reassigned until the worker machine performs a total reset. This assures that all files are processed and no orphans exist to delay job completion.

Flexibility
eCapture provides flexibility and control over ESI discovery through offering users the ability to perform powerful searching, de-duping, filtering and compound document handling. Users setup processing rules to automate the process and minimize human intervention. eCapture’s export is fully distributed allowing for fast, high volume production of native files, images, searchable PDF files, and load files for major litigation software packages. The export offers a full range of options including endorsements, single or multipage images and/or text files and native file export.
