Case Study: Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories achieves optimized SAP performance, reduced database size and zero downtime with OpenText Archiving for SAP Solutions

Opentext Archiving For SAP Solutions Improves System Performance And Back-Up For One Of India's Largest Pharmaceutical Companies

Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories, one of India’s largest pharmaceutical companies with extensive global operations, faced a rapidly growing SAP ECC database that ballooned to nearly 3 TB from organic growth and acquisitions, causing serious performance issues—especially in Finance. Rather than simply adding storage, IT engaged OpenText partner Arteria to define a sustainable enterprise content management and archiving strategy.

They implemented OpenText Archiving for SAP Solutions, archiving 29 object types and reducing the ECC production server by roughly 0.5 TB while achieving about 10× compression. The rollout delivered faster backups and noticeably improved system performance with zero downtime, ensured regulatory-compliant SAP data consistency, and enabled retrieval of custom reports from both active and archived data.
