Quick Study:
Information Lifecyle Management for SAP®
Combining SAP ILM and Effective Storage

October, 2010

Regulatory rules and business information requirements are the driving factors for an enterprise's Information Lifecycle Management (ILM). SAP ILM offers the rules framework to satisfy these requirements:

  • Complete retention management
  • Legal holds
  • Regional retention settings
  • Automatic deletes

Supporting all Enterprise ILM Requirements:

Data Archiving and Management is a combination of traditional, standard tools and processes used by most large SAP customers to manage database volume. Included here are standard archiving objects and programs, analysis tools, and indexing functions for accessing archived data.

Retention Management compromises a range of new functions such as the Information Retention Manager (IRM), a central tool for managing all your retention policies, and Legal Case Management (LCM), a tool for legal hold and automated e-discovery support. IRM policies are based on external legal requirements or internal service level agreements. These policies can be applied to structured and unstructured data. A new archive and storage interface called BC-ILM 2.0 connects ILM aware storage that is capable to understand and act on retention policies, to SAP systems.

Legacy Decommissioning is a standardized solution and method for decommissioning legacy systems providing tax and other types of reporting on the decommissioned system data. It combines the archiving of business complete data, the creation of snapshots of business incomplete data, and the destruction of archived data.
