Project files and translations are moved to cold storage when a project is archived or canceled for an extended period of time. The archival and offloading solution in Wordbee Translator is scheduled to operate at regular intervals to optimize the storage capacity of the platform. It archives and offloads all files in projects that meet a given set of criteria to cold storage, so you can bring an administrative close to them. Once archived in the offline facility, project and job details are still accessible, but files and translations are not. Since files can be valuable long into the future projects can still be retrieved at any time by the platform administrator.

Moreover, this offloading and retrieval process can also be triggered manually by any system administrator for any given project if needed.

The automation in place for archival and offloading is scheduled during regular intervals. Below are the conditions projects need to meet in order to be automatically offloaded by the system.

Criteria to automatically offload projects

  1. Projects remain in status 'archived' or 'canceled' during a given period (see latency periods defined)
    1. The latency period for automatic archival, following project completion. It can vary from one month to a full year  (according to the customer's SLA plan)
    2. The latency period for automatic offloadingfollowing project archival. It can vary from one week to one month (according to the customer's SLA plan)
  2. The latency period is reset any time a change is done into an 'archived' or 'canceled' project (this includes restoring a project or manually changing its status).

Customers can upgrade the latency period for archival or offloading by reaching out to the Wordbee Team.

With the module for project archival and offloading, you are able to:

  • Manage the space available in the online Wordbee Translator platform (as per subscription details), with the option to manually recover offloaded projects on demand. More space for the online platform can always be purchased if required.

  • Maximize the performance of the system for daily activities. By optimizing the use of online storage resources can be distributed more efficiently in the projects and jobs currently in progress.
  • Provide an up-to-date overview of your projects List. Ensuring you have archived your old projects will help to clean up your projects lists and help you with better management of your current ongoing projects.
  • Create transparency when rendering translation services. In accordance with ISO standards, archiving projects is an essential mechanism of record keeping and evidence of consultation activities. In order to ensure that your organization is accountable for any decisions made during the project lifecycle, providing access to the archived files and data may be critical.
  • Keep the essential data online. With project data and records on hand, the business analytics module in the system can still pull information for long-term reporting.
  • Help new projects and team members understand projects – old project material can be useful for training or as a point of reference when a new employee needs extra information.
