Migrating to SAP S/4HANA via Greenfield or Selective Data Transition often leaves critical legacy data in ECC systems. This blog explores three practical strategies for archiving that data: maintaining ECC in the cloud, using SAP ILM Retention Warehouse, or adopting a third-party solution like SNP Data Fridge. Each option is assessed for cost, compliance, access, and complexity—helping you choose the right long-term data retention strategy.

SAP Solution Manager is nearing end-of-life, and Cloud ALM is SAP’s strategic successor—offering improved usability, reduced overhead, and new capabilities like automated testing and integrated quality gates. Now is the time for organisations to plan their transition, ideally aligned with major SAP projects. Tools like the SAP Readiness Check can help assess current usage and guide a smooth, value-driven migration.
