Abstract:
An information management inventory in which information is managed electronically in a network of distributed servers including a structured data environment. Agent software may be loaded on a first server, which may be a local server, and the first server may be scanned with the agent software to identify data stores located on the first server. The information related to a first data store may be compiled with the agent software, and the information may be provided to a second server, which may be a data accumulation server. The information may be metadata about the first data store, and histories of changes to the data stores may be tracked in the second data store. Apparatus, computer readable medium systems, and computer program products are also provided.
