Data archiving
Data archiving refers to the long-term, structured storage of data that is no longer needed for day-to-day operations but must remain available. It reduces the load on productive systems, improves performance and ensures that information can be retrieved unchanged when required. How long data must be retained often depends on the retention requirement. The technical implementation and storage rules are defined through archiving settings. A typical case is the archiving of completed documents so that they remain available for audits without slowing down daily work.
