How it works
Datavard OutBoard™ uses flexible data analysis to store the data from SAP® BW into an a Nearline Storage (NLS) based on their age and operational relevance. Day-to-day business data stays in online database, while old and cold data is archived. Nearlined data remains accessible for reporting, data load and analysis tools.
More storage options available
For very large systems or under SAP® HANA infrastructure costs and licenses may make it necessary to store archived data outside the existing operational database. For that purpose we have created a comprehensive Storage Management module for OutBoard™ that allows you to connect:
- SAP® Sybase IQ
- Apache™ Hadoop®
- Any SAP certified DBMS (Oracle DB, IBM DB/2, MS SQL, MaxDB, ASE)
- File / Cloud based storage (e.g. Netapp, EMC)
This functionality turns OutBoard™ into the most complete Nearline Storage solution available.
