What to do with discovery in a small law firm?
I have a small law firm client, just 3 attorneys. They are currently just using an SMB share on a Server 2016 box. We need to retire this machine, and I'd like to avoid on-premise hardware as much as possible. All the normal data will move to SharePoint without issue. There isn't all that much data size wise.
Discover is an issue though. There are huge cellphone extraction data files, large scans of accident scenes, and surveillance footage. Things of that nature which won't play nice to access via SharePoint.
What all are you folks doing with this data? I was thinking discovery could live on a NAS in the office, but then I'm right back to having another piece of equipment to maintain and backup. Not to mention the inconvenience of the attorneys having to continue using a VPN to access this data if out of the office.
Any other creative ideas that could avoid having to have on-premise equipment?
