JDE EnterpriseOne Archiving–the devil is in the detail

There are a few competing archive products for E1 archival on the market at the moment and choosing the right one can be difficult.  Some companies have put together a small ESU and some basic “audit trail” technology over the top – but how useful is this data?  How easy is it to report from?  How quickly can you view the data once it’s been archived? 

With all archive products that I know, it’s difficult to get the data back.  You can’t just log into JDE and request the data to come back and wait a while.  The data needs IT intervention to get it back, or you need to write BI reports in third party BI utilities (via bespoke ODBC drivers) to view the historical data – which is going to cost more in the long run.

Remember that the Myriad solution gives you a NO COST & familiar interface back into your historical data – namely JDE!  Run an integrity, run any form in JDE you can do so on your historical data.  NO other solution offers you this flexibility.  You just sign into another environment and see your historical data.  Myriad can even create an environment where you see your historical data and your current data in the one environment!  Sure it might be a little slower than production – especially when you’ve reduced the size of your active data set by 50%! (this is a common value for data size reductions with archiving).

The Myriad solution is a consulting based solution, not a software based solution.  It’s backed up with IP and experience of having done it before.  It’s proven.  It will make your production environment go faster.  You will get an architected solution that is best for you and your needs.

Get in contact and we can explain the process in more detail.

Using all your existing hardware and software (or augment if you want), you can have complete access to all your JDE data – but your transactional environment will be running without the burden of history!  You will no longer have table scans that bring the system to it’s knees, because the data is not going to be in your production environment. JDE data archiving made simple, any platform, any database.
