New archive solution
Automotive supplier Reinz is replacing its ECM system with a KGS archiving solution: The expiry of the existing maintenance contract with the previous archive manufacturer has now prompted Reinz Dichtungs GmbH from Neu-Ulm to switch to a modern SAP archiving concept from KGS.
Reinz develops and produces sealing technology for the automotive industry and is part of the US Dana Holding Corporation.
With KGS ContentServer4Storage, Reinz has opted for a system that focuses exclusively on SAP archiving - unlike the previous ECM solution, whose functionalities were barely utilized.
The company was able to do away with the previous jukebox and replace it with a virtualized server. The old data was transferred using special migration software from KGS.
The KGS solution is used in the regional Dana data center for Europe in Neu-Ulm, where five plants of the Power Technologies Group business unit run on the SAP system. The company now archives their data and documents with KGS.
