Archiving for SAP Solutions
Make an informed and strategic decision to archive in the cloud for fast, easy, anywhere access to content and lower costs
Overview
Terabytes of new documents, images, videos and other data are filling on-premises databases faster than new hardware can be installed. Traditional data and content archiving solutions help manage the volume and meet legal, compliance, privacy and retention requirements. But, many times, the value of that historical information is locked away in storage along with the documents.
Cloud archiving offers an alternative way to archive data and documents for fast, easy and anywhere access to content while reducing storage and other costs. Archiving for SAP Solutions delivers the agility for compliant archiving and content integration for SAP applications along with comprehensive content access.

-
Protect against disasters
Ensure content is securely stored and protected against loss in disasters, such as fire or flood, with content replication and built-in disaster recovery.
-
Reduce costs
Use the same platform for SAP data volume management to reduce the TCO of your SAP database and legacy decommissioning with SAP Information Lifecycle Management.

Business impacts
-
Lost value
Archiving is required to manage growing volumes of data, meet legal regulations, such as tax or product liability, and keep costs down. But when information is out of sight and not readily available, the value it contains can also get stored. Archive content and keep its value.
-
High maintenance costs
The effort and cost to maintain an on-premises archive is significant. It involves time-intensive manual upgrades with poor SLAs that create downtime for business stakeholders. Archive in the cloud to lower costs and maintain productivity.
-
Time wasted searching for information
With the increase in data, comes an increase in time searching through documents. Knowledge workers can spend up to one third of their day looking for the information they need to complete their tasks. Reduce clutter with cloud data archiving.
-
Invoice processing
Paper-based invoice processing slows posting and approval, leading to missed deadlines and discounts. Speed the process by having paper invoices, as well as digital ones, scanned and stored in the archiving system and attached to an SAP workflow.
-
Content without context
Customer-facing departments need access to relevant, current documentation to maximize productivity. Without effective management, information silos prevent a comprehensive customer view. Get content in context for higher process efficiency.
-
Volume control
Managing and controlling data volume growth in a cost-effective way is an ongoing challenge. On-premises storage puts pressure on IT infrastructures and adds storage and operational costs. Shift to cloud-based archiving and reduce high storage costs.
