Bridge Your Past SAP ECC Legacy to the Future with Archon Data Store

Archon Suite delivers measurable benefits to your organization by addressing SAP ECC datagrowth and archiving challenges with its automated, compliant, secure, affordable, purpose-built platform of Archon Data Store (ADS)

SAP-ECC

Overview

In many of your enterprises, SAP ECC systems stockpile a wide range of data across human resources, finance, management, sales, and distribution over time. You no longer need these data, but they remain on production systems. SAP ERP systems grow at a phenomenal pace leading to:

  • Escalation of infrastructure & storage cost
  • Slow performance of production system
  • Licensing overheads unnecessarily
  • Complicated S/4HANA migration by data bloat
  • Compliance, audits, and legal discovery risks

This unfavourable situation has gone from bad to worse as SAP ECC systems approach end-of-life. SAP has mandated all its customers to move to the latest SAP HANA database-based ecosystem. For your business, the transition from SAP ECC to SAP S/4HANA has become increasingly urgent. Migrating the complete business to SAP S/4HANA is extremely expensive for your enterprises. Holding onto enormous volumes of historical SAP ECC data turns into a critical challenge.

Here is an effective solution for you to address these challenges – Archon Data Store (ADS), the significant core product of Platform 3 Solutions, is purposely built for a secure, scalable, and compliant data archival solution. Data archiving by ADS is a strategic step towards modernization with compliance risk mitigation. Archon Suite enables your organization to retire legacy SAP ECC systems, archive historical data, ensure compliance, and improve production system performance — keeping the data securely accessible for your business, audit, compliance, and legal needs.
