RenewData, a start-up in Austin, Texas, launched a new service last week aimed at helping companies migrate their historical e-mail systems to new systems.

The company, which does e-discovery of e-mails and other unstructured data for compliance and litigation purposes, is rolling out its Data Migration Services.

The service uses RenewData’s ActiveVault Conversion Engine to do the migration. It supports CA’s Message Manager, Lotus Notes, Novell’s GroupWise and Microsoft Exchange environments and works with e-mail archiving systems such as Symantec’s Enterprise Vault and EMC’s EmailXtender.

RenewData’s ActiveVault Conversion Engine de-duplicates e-mails and converts the data into a format that can be used by the e-mail archive. The migration service can also be used for data such as Word files, instant messaging and chat.

The process of the migration results in a full chain-of-custody for litigation.

RenewData also performs electronic discovery services, in which information needed for litigation is pulled off of tape and other media. Its technology can identify keywords, dates and files and generate custom reports of the results.

RenewData was founded in 2001 as the result of the merger of DSTX Limited and Progressive Data Recovery. The company is funded by ABC Capital Partners and CIBC Capital Partners. It just received $5 million in Series D funding after receiving $30 million Series C funding last summer.
