Unlock the full strategy in our in-depth whitepaper
SAP powers everything from global supply chains to financial reporting. The problem is that as your business grows, so does your SAP data. Eventually, this growth starts to hurt. Sluggish performance, skyrocketing storage costs, painful system upgrades, compliance risks….Does this sound familiar?
If your SAP system is starting to feel more like a burden than a backbone, it’s time to take a closer look at data archiving with Intelligent Content Services for SAP, Zia’s external solution for optimizing your SAP environment.
Why SAP Data Archiving Deserves Your Attention
Let’s face it, most SAP systems are overflowing with years, or even decades, of transactional data. While that data may not be needed for day-to-day operations, you still have to retain it for audits, legal compliance, forecasting, and historical reporting.
Here’s the problem: storing everything in your live system drags down performance and racks up costs.
A smart archiving strategy, like Intelligent Content Services for SAP, moves non-active data to secure, accessible, and lower-cost storage. By doing this, you can:
- Shrink your primary database and boost performance.
- Reduce storage and infrastructure spend.
- Stay compliant with evolving retention and privacy regulations.
- Smooth the path to S/4HANA or cloud migration.
- Free up your IT team to focus on innovation instead of data cleanup.
With a modern external archiving platform, you don’t have to rely on clunky, manual SAP-native tools to make all of this happen.
Not All Archiving Is Created Equal
Most companies either delay archiving or attempt it manually through SAP transactions like SARA. Often, this is done without clear retention policies or a good understanding of how SAP archiving objects work.
That’s risky!
A half-baked archiving process leads to broken dependencies, inaccessible documents, compliance gaps, and worse of all data loss.
That’s why more companies are turning to external solutions like Intelligent Content Services for SAP Solutions. It is purpose-built to simplify, automate, and secure your entire SAP data lifecycle.
