Webinar: Best Practices for a Nearline Solution in SAP Business Warehouse
On Thursday, Nov 13, Auritas held a Webinar on Best Practices in using SAND/DNA for Nearline:
Did you know that many companies now have their BW database 2-3 times the size of their ECC or R/3 Database? In fact, most companies have not looked into the compliance requirements that could impact their BW platform. Many companies now understand that database size and growth can be controlled in the R/3 environment. But, is there any seamless access to archive in BW? How will ILM (Information Lifecycle Management) strategy impact your BW system?
Alright, now that I have your interest peaked….. You might want to know what could be done to manage database growth on your BW platform. Is there something called Data Archiving in BW also? Well yes, but its not as versatile as it is in SAP. There is a new cop in town for managing data growth in BW. It’s called Nearline. Auritas in providing highly informative information (but not boring) is going to do a webcast around Nearlining functionality and benefits in SAP BW. We are also going to do a DEMO!!!. Auritas in collaboration with SAND is going to provide you hands on knowledge around Nearline for SAP BW.
