Data Migration Server?
Test Data Migration Server to create high-quality test systems with a reduced set of data
Master Data - Uses
To access the master data of your customers in the CRM system, you have to replicate the data from the ERP system on Data Migration Server.
SAP Test Data Migration Server simplifies the process of extracting representative application data from a productive system and standardizes the set-up of non-productive systems, thereby supporting customers by making their business application testing activities easier and more robust. This reduces costs and time while increasing test quality in real-life test environments. Enterprises run non-productive development and quality systems to simulate customized developments and evaluate them against real data or prepare their system landscapes for software implementations and upgrades. Building a non-productive system often entails replicating a productive system, including all its stored data, which is a time-consuming task that requires a lot of storage and creates ongoing hardware costs. SAP Test Data Migration Server uses standardized set-up processes, thereby eliminating the need to create such development or quality systems manually. Companies can save weeks in retrieving representative data for testing or development purposes and reduces the amount of data in the target systems.
Pricing of the SAP Test Data Migration Server software is based on the database size of the customer’s productive system. The customer can then use the software to create an unlimited number of non-productive systems which are derived from data of the licensed productive system. While using the SAP Test Data Migration Server software, customers will benefit from:
- Cost savings brought on by the reduced need for storage resulting from having less data in non-productive environments.
- Shorter development cycles through more efficient creation of test scenarios.
- Flexibility when upgrading SAP R/3 applications, setting up test or training environments, debugging code changes or enhancing SAP R/3 components.
- Increased flexibility in refreshing test data by enabling the move of data within individual system clients.
