Archive Migration: Typical Challenges
Archive migration within SAP system landscapes is a sensitive and complex undertaking. It typically involves critical company data and requires the utmost care. In many projects, we encounter recurring challenges that you may be familiar with:
Outdated archive solutions, rising maintenance costs, and lack of support are putting companies under pressure. At the same time, legal requirements demand complete documentation and data consistency — even with large data volumes and tight timelines.
The challenge becomes even greater when heterogeneous system landscapes, customized archiving scenarios, and ongoing operations converge. Without a well-thought-out concept and proven tools, archive migration carries significant risks — from data loss to audit issues.
A poorly chosen or inadequately planned migration approach can lead to data loss, system downtime, or audit problems. That’s why you need a partner who brings experience, structure, and technology.
