HP has launched a records management solution that enables customers to significantly reduce the business risks associated with the growing regulatory compliance and legal discovery demands.

HP Trim 7 – an advanced records management solution - enables organisations to transparently manage all of their Microsoft SharePoint Server records in a single environment, regardless of the source. This includes documents as well as information found in SharePoint Server blogs, wikis, discussions, forms, calendars and workflows.

This solution shows the commitment of both companies to openness and interoperability in the content management arena.
