Client Story

Leading Fortune 500 Industrial Manufacturer

After years of amassing SAP data, our client recognized that the data volume would be a challenge if they wanted to migrate to the cloud. But purging data wasn’t a viable option. Instead, they worked with P3 to offload their SAP data from the core SAP landscape—all while maintaining access later, if required.

They chose not to leverage their existing enterprise archiving solution. Instead, they used their SAP agreement that contained ILM licensing. P3 worked alongside them to design the best ILM solution to support their cloud migration strategy. Working with the client and cloud providers, we implemented an archiving process that moved data to cloud storage. They maintained access and retention management.

Our client avoided $1.5M in storage costs, thanks to SAP archiving.
