Application Scenarios
There are multiple real live application scenarios that can be supported by the ACC to enhance a given SAP archiving landscape or to facilitate specific transitory functions during a migration process.
Typical application scenarios:
- Serving as a proxy during an archive migration by sending r/w calls to the target repository and sending read-only calls the source repository, while actively migrating in the background. This allows switching to the target repository on day one and guaranties a fully user transparent transition.
- Supporting partial archive copies during company mergers and splits by functioning as a security gateway, restricting call for copies to selected documents and selected repositories only.
- Forwarding (spoofing), securing (HTTPS) and/or signing (SAP SecKey) calls to a new target repository without changing the configuration or coding of the triggering application.
- Supporting split storage setups, with a section of the archive in a cloud base reduced access location and another section in a high availability on premise location.
