How does it work?

Kyano Datafridge securely stores legacy data on modern infrastructure of your choice. This ensures compliant, controlled access to the complete historical data set – delivering a holistic business view without the cost and risk of running a full legacy system.

  • Our solution extracts all data from your legacy system database. All this data is migrated to the Datafridge archive – on-prem or in the cloud. We recommend using a compliant cloud storage or data lake to securely store this legacy data within the Datafridge archive.

  • To access and analyze the data, a capsuled add-on is installed on the access system (control system), providing seamless and transparent access to historical data via an SAP GUI-based frontend for audits and analysis.

Reducing SAP data-related risks for TotalEnergies by decommissioning 17 SAP ECC legacy systems

At some point, legacy systems stop delivering value and start creating risks. 17 SAP ECC systems from TotalEnergies were no longer used operationally, but kept frozen as their data had to remain available for audits and compliance, leaving little room for a simple shutdown. Those systems, however, still consumed significant resources and raised security concerns.

Frequently asked questions

Kyano Datafridge works as an end-to-end solution for decommissioning legacy data. It follows these steps: 

  1. Extract: Migrate legacy data from legacy ECC systems to the compliant Kyano Datafridge archive. 
  2. Ingest: Load and tag data from multiple source systems to an economical storage solution and reduce TCO. 
  3. Retrieve: Provide transparent user access and perform data extracts as needed through the SAP frontend. 
  4. Delete: Define retention periods or legal holds and destroy data at the end of its life cycle. 

Kyano Datafridge enables you to decommission legacy systems cost-effectively without losing access to your legacy data. Display and analyze your legacy data according to audit requirements or internal company needs. Define and apply your retention rules to protect data as long as needed – and enable effective data destruction once retention periods expire.

Data display and evaluation features are covered by data browsers and display transactions. These enable SAP GUI-based data retrieval and analyses and are provided as a pure software add-on to be installed in a control system of your choice.
