OpenText Core Archive for SAP

Shift your data to the cloud. Establish automated, compliant data retention and disposition.

OpenText™ Core Archive for SAP Solutions introduces a cloud-ready version of OpenText Archiving and Document Access for SAP Solutions. The cloud service is based on the proven OpenText Archive Center.

Core Archive for SAP Solutions securely store SAP data and documents as well as non-SAP content in the cloud and integrate business documents with SAP transactions and processes.

Core Archive for SAP Solutions runs in the OpenText Cloud in a resilient and fault-tolerant architecture. Twin data centers in Europe and North America confines regional content and enables disaster recovery.

The OpenText data centers provide an assured level of service, availability and quality with defined service level agreements, fault-tolerant solution design and audited operational controls.

The Archive Center Proxy represents the interface to the enterprise applications via SAP ArchiveLink, SAP ILM or CMIS and connects to the cloud service while providing content caching, compression and encryption with a customer-owned key.

“Eliminating the complexity of setting up an on-premises enterprise archiving infrastructure helped us to reduce costs and operational overhead.”
