Legacy Application Decommissioning
Our consultants have experience in decommissioning a wide range of ERP applications, such as the Oracle eBusiness Suite, Peoplesoft, and even older SAP versions.
Archiving the data from legacy applications allows you turn off these legacy systems whilst maintaining your business and legal requirements to retain and access data.
Decommissioning an SAP system is a complex undertaking, though the process can be greatly speeded up by using consultants who know what data needs to be retained, and in what format. Proceed has experience of extracting SAP data and storing the resulting files in SAP certified content repository systems. The files can then be made available to users via a number of front-end applications.
Just like any application, archive servers also will at some point reach their "End of Life". When this time comes, you want to be sure that your valuable data can continue to be made available. Our expertise in migrating data for upgrades, hardware re-platforming, or even between archive server vendor, mean that we can plan and implement and effective and efficient migration. We have been installing and upgrading archive servers from all the main vendors (Opentext/IXOS, IBM, MAcro4, Easy etc) for over 10 years, so your data won't be in better hands during your migration
Bespoke customer applications can be decommissioned using the same fundamental approach as SAP. Often the bespoke applications are legacy applications left behind during an ERP implementation. Whilst much, if not all, of the operational data will have been migrated, often there is a vast amount of data that would have been left behind. In order to save costs, any data that is still required by the business or the authorities, should be extracted and archived, and made available to users in a simple and easy to use application.
