Archive SAP ERP and SAP S/4HANA data and documents intelligently
SAP ERP Central Component (SAP ECC) environments to the Archon Data Store, enabling enterprise-grade archiving of SAP content, documents, and data. Organizations can reduce their live-database footprint, meet long-term retention obligations, and access historical records instantly without maintaining legacy SAP infrastructure. Built for SAP ECC and SAP S/4HANA. It supports role-based access, document linking, and policy-driven retention.
Benefits
Reduce SAP ECC database footprint before SAP S/4HANA migration
Historical SAP ECC data and documents drive storage costs and slow SAP S/4HANA performance without contributing to live operations. Moving aged content to a lakehouse based archive reduces the active database footprint directly, cut licensing and infrastructure costs tied to data volume by reducing your active database footprint before beginning your data migration.
Decommission SAP ECC without losing audit or compliance access
SAP ECC systems often stay running for years after go-live purely to serve audit queries against historical records. Archiving SAP ECC content to an independent, ArchiveLink compatible store enables full system retirement. Historical documents remain retrievable without live SAP ECC access, eliminating the maintenance cost of keeping a decommissioned instance alive.
Meet long-term retention obligations across SAP ECC document types
SAP ECC or SAP S/4HANA business documents including purchase orders, invoices, HR records, and financial postings carry jurisdiction-specific retention requirements ranging from 7 years to 30 years or more. Policy-driven retention rules applied at ingestion enforce hold periods automatically per document type and region, reducing manual compliance overhead and the risk of premature deletion or uncontrolled retention.
Features
After SAP ECC decommissioned,data accessed through a similar SAP ECC screens.
After SAP ECC decommissioning, the data structure, folder hierarchy, and UI in Archon mirrors the navigation process exactly. Finance, audit, and compliance teams navigate and retrieve historical records the same way they did in SAP ECC, with no disruption to existing workflows or user experience.
Provide a compliance dashboard to monitor and manage retention policies.
Manage data retention requirements through a compliance dashboard that provides visibility into retention policies, legal holds, and regulatory obligations. Support governance teams by delivering a compliance dashboard to oversee information lifecycle management activities.
Deliver seamless access to historical documents by using predefined screens.
Provide continued access to archived data through predefined SAP ECC transaction screens after system decommissioning or S/4HANA migration, eliminating the need to maintain the original SAP ECC legacy application.
