S/4 Hana migration - data is the key

It is often not clear how IT managers are to make the switch to S/4 in concrete terms and what happens to the legacy systems. The question of data quality and data reduction is also often neglected.

The data is the most important factor in the migration. Because only those who clean up beforehand and precisely select the data to be migrated can operate the new database leanly and efficiently.

As a rule, legacy systems must be preserved for several years due to legal requirements or for accounting purposes. This can lead to an unmanageable "zoo" of legacy systems.

Intelligent SAP system decommissioning software like Datavard-Datafridge helps when it comes to "freezing" data in inexpensive (cloud) storage. System decommissioning reduces TCO by up to 80 percent, while data remains accessible for analysis and audits at all times.

Datavard helps with the transformation with software solutions and consulting. Datavard tools classify data, support cleanup, monitor order in the new system and archive to favorable cloud storage.

Datavard Glue also has a solution for questions about SAP data integration for Big Data, for holistic analyses or to use ML/KI profitably.
