DataVard OutBoard™ is a Nearline Storage (NLS) archiving solution that enables ongoing control of data growth and operational cost.


DataVard OutBoard™ is 100%  SAP® embedded and certified. It is the only solution that does not require any external storage. The tool compresses archived data up to 95% of its size while keeping it available at all times for reporting and ETL.

DataVard OutBoard™ helps to:

  • reduce operational efforts and expenses
  • decrease system size
  • keep archived data readily available
  • raise system performance (esp. data load, backups and recovery)
  • simplify your systems’ administration
