Don’t let your legacy data stop you from embracing new technologies
Keeping hold of your legacy SAP data can stop you from embracing the latest in technology. With Archive Central, you can keep your legacy data, without following the costly SAP archiving route, and still keep the best IT options open for your business.
Implement modern security protocols
Comply with GDPR and other data privacy laws by providing role-based access to sensitive data. The Archive Central platform is ISO 27001 certified, and adheres to the best security standards to keep your data out of the wrong hands. Also, all information is encrypted for security and regulatory compliance. Backups and disaster recovery are handled as part of the solution.
Optimize your access to legacy data
Import your legacy data into a secure, searchable web-based repository. Customize the layout to give users the same look that they are used to so they can find information quickly.
Focus your team on business-critical systems
Let us take care of the legacy data you need for legal and compliance needs, with read-only access. No need to spend time and resources on maintaining out-of date-database versions or patching old SAP systems; you can just consume the data without the hassle.
How Archive Central is used today
Retirement of legacy systems
Organizations are reducing operational costs by retiring legacy systems which can be expensive to support, or perhaps running on platforms which are insecure. Legal retention periods for business data delay the retirement of legacy systems. Archive Central provides a modern data management platform for record management.
Right-sizing of ERP systems
Businesses are looking for solutions to control and limit data growth in their ERP systems. This includes options to extract and archive data and documents they no longer require immediate access to. Archive Central provides a simplified, secure repository into which you can unload data, making your ERP system more cost-effective, as part of a transformation project.
Business Transformation
After a merger or divestiture, the organizations involved may need to hold a selection of data for compliance reasons. Archive Central provides a controlled mechanism to share the relevant master and transactional data to the relevant parties for regulatory and governance purposes.
Data archiving for non-SAP data
Many IT systems have a hybrid scenario which includes best-of-breed solutions. Archive Central is optimized for SAP systems, but it also supports most other systems. Whether this is in addition to an SAP system or another stand-alone IT system, Archive Central stores the data and its corresponding metadata to be able to recreate business entities in a way the user needs to view them.
Realize your project
EPI-USE Labs will support your project to export the data from your current Production environment and create the new Archive Environment:
Technical architecture
- In line with best practices, the solution is deployed as a hosted SaaS solution.
- The application leverages elastic scaling and storage mechanisms, provides a variety of hosting locations (in compliance with GDPR and other privacy legislation) and uses CDNs for fast responses globally.
- Support for documents is built in as standard; for example, linking payslip documents to the employee can be part of the data that is stored in Archive Central.
