Document and Data Archiving for SAP® Business Suite
Proven solution with SAP-certified integration.
Your SAP database has been growing, normally at an ever increasing rate, since the day you started using SAP. Normally only 20% of this data is current and used regularly, the other 80% is available in case it is needed for customer service or for compliance reasons – keeping certain data for defined periods of time.
However, keeping all this rarely accessed data as part of your SAP system impacts performance. Reporting, backups and upgrades all take longer than is really necessary or desirable, and you will likely have spent money on extra storage over the years.
Our solution defines and implements your Archiving Strategy, removing the 80% of data from your SAP system and storing it securely and efficiently so your SAP system can be lean and mean once again. However, the archived data can still be accessed from within the SAP environment thanks to our SAP-certified integration. You can rest in comfort that any data can be accessed securely for customer service, legal discovery and audit, while your SAP performance is unaffected by these often massive volumes of historic data.
In summary, the benefits of defining and implementing a Data Archiving strategy for SAP environments are:
- Faster SAP upgrade process with less risk
- More efficient business processes from increased system performance
- Reduced query times for interactive users and batch reports
- Reduced vulnerability of data
- Shorter backup times required
- Easier Database Administration
- Reduced hardware requirements & upgrades
- Minimal expensive online storage costs
