Data Archiving and Decommissioning

⇨ In addition to the increasing volume of data that organizations are collecting is the need to archive and manage that data in a way that is both compliant and efficient

⇨ Data privacy, residency, and sovereignty are questions that must be answered for current systems as well as any data archives

⇨ An archiving and decommissioning strategy is a major asset for any organization running legacy systems or for those moving to SAP S/4HANA

Data is the most valuable asset of any company, and that is doubly true for the data that is in SAP systems. But as organizations transform their systems to better meet today’s needs, there will inevitably be legacy systems that must be decommissioned as new solutions are deployed. Managing the data that is in those legacy systems can be a major challenge for organizations that need to ensure they comply to changing regulations around data privacy, residency, and sovereignty especially as they look to reduce the volume of data moved into new solutions.
