The Challenge of Historical Databases

As you execute complex platform migrations or transition to the cloud, your enterprise faces a critical hurdle: permanently retiring obsolete database architectures like MS SQL, MySQL, and Oracle. You cannot simply pull the plug. Strict CRA mandates and rigid legal frameworks demand you guarantee the long term retention and permanent accessibility of your mission critical enterprise data.
Typical bottlenecks when managing legacy databases:
  • Massive Budget Drain: Obsolete architectures devour capital by drastically inflating ongoing licensing, infrastructure, and maintenance costs
  • Severe Security Liabilities: Aging servers and outdated software versions expose your organization to critical vulnerabilities and severe compatibility roadblocks
  • Stranded IT Capacity: Forcing outdated databases to stay online traps your top talent in endless cycles of maintenance, monitoring, and technical support
  • Roadblocks to Modernization: Legacy databases inherently lack the agility to integrate seamlessly with your forward looking modern applications
  • Strict Regulatory Mandates: You must guarantee your historical data remains absolutely audit ready and instantly accessible to mitigate legal risks for decades to come
AvenDATA Delivers the Solution: We empower you to completely shut down your historical databases without suffering data loss or triggering compliance risks. Our web based archiving solution delivers an industry standard platform that guarantees a high performance and completely audit ready transition. Your historical records remain instantly searchable and perfectly visible entirely without the massive financial overhead of keeping the original database active.
