⇨ PBS can help SAP users consider the multiple factors that make up a user’s goal. Factors such as reducing downtime for backups, reducing the size of the database, targeting a reduction of ERP system growth, reducing extraction time or whether that goal is implementing archiving to comply with change.
To put it simply, data archiving stores data on a lower-cost tier of long-term storage, thereby reducing costs and storage consumption. For SAP users, data archiving in any environment is challenging not only due to its technical complexity, but also as it’s something that isn’t often viewed as adding value.
In fact, data archiving becomes essential for SAP users when their systems have grown too large, and the business can’t access data in a reasonable amount of time. Likewise, if business functions can’t be completed due to uncontrolled data growth or if there is a need to move to another platform such as migrating from SAP ECC to S/4HANA.
In these cases, the ever-difficult task of choosing a consulting partner can become even more so for SAP users, and with data archiving being a complex topic, choosing the right partner can be the determining factor to delivering a successful outcome for the project.
