Archiving Data
Prerequisites
You have already loaded data into an InfoProvider.
Context
Besides archiving data from InfoCubes and DataStore objects, you can also store it in near-line storage. Using the data archiving process you define whether the data is to be archived based on ADK, stored in near-line storage, or whether you want to use a mix of both. This data archiving process can be scheduled using either a process chain or the ADK. It can also be executed manually.
Procedure
-
You create a data archiving process for the InfoProvider from which you want to archive data.
More information: Creating Data Archiving Processes
-
You generate and then schedule the archiving request. More information:
