SNP Outboard™ Datatiering with NLS

SNP Outboard™ Datatiering is a nearline storage (NLS) archiving solution that enables you to control data growth and operating costs on an ongoing basis.

SNP Outboard™ is 100% SAP®-embedded and SAP®-certified. It is the only solution that does not require any external storage. The tool compresses archived data by up to 95% of its original size while keeping it available at all times for reporting and ETL (extraction, transformation and loading).

SNP Outboard™ helps to:

  • Reduce operational efforts and expenses

  • Decrease system size

  • Keep archived data readily available

  • Raise system performance (esp. data loading, backups, and recovery)

  • Simplify your system administration

How It Works

SNP Outboard™ uses flexible data analysis to store the data from SAP® BW in a nearline storage based on its age and operational relevance. Day-to-day business data stays in an online database, while old and cold data are archived. Nearline data remains accessible for reporting, data loading and analysis tools.
