Reasons for Archiving 

There are both technical and legal reasons for archiving application data. Data Archiving:

·         Resolves memory space and performance problems caused by large volumes of transaction data

·         Ensures that data growth remains moderate so that the database remains manageable in the long term

·         Ensures that companies can meet the legal requirements for data storage in a cost-efficient manner

·         Ensures that data can be reused at a later date, for example, in new product development
