Alfresco 5 Encryption Store and Search

[pkanuri]

Hi,

One of the critical requirements for our client is encryption of data/content at rest. In this connection using the encrypted store instead of
the content store seems to be a good idea.
But I have a couple of queries:

1. Will using encrypted store have any implications for indexing/searching?
2. Will performance be affected negatively for data/content in the range of 60TB?

Kindly let us know the answers to these questions.

Thanks,
Phani

1) Searching is unaffected by the encrypted store.
2) Clearly there will be a performance penalty for the encryption, that's unavoidable.  However it doesn't seem to be much.
