Cella decommissions data from SAP and non-SAP systems alike – SAP ECC, Oracle, PeopleSoft, JD Edwards, Infor, Baan and more – holding it all in one secure, reportable store, so you can switch the old systems off and keep every record.
SAP decommissioning and beyond – one platform for every system Retire any system. One place for the data.
What Cella supports
Legacy application decommissioning, SAP and non-SAP
Rather than moving data to one side while the old system keeps running, Cella decommissions the system entirely and holds its data – structured and unstructured, including archive files – in a single secure store. Whether your teams call it data decommissioning or system decommissioning, the outcome is the same: the data stays accessible, and the system and its cost go.
Supported systems
The systems Cella decommissions
Cella supports these systems and any other SAP or non-SAP system. Data from multiple systems and vendors can be held together in one platform.
SAP ECC (Business Suite 7) and earlier SAP releases – full SAP decommissioning.
Data from SAP S/4HANA – extracted and retained alongside your legacy history.
SAP archive files (ADK) and all SAP modules (e.g. CRM, SRM, APO, HCM).
Oracle – E-Business Suite and Fusion – full Oracle decommissioning.
PeopleSoft, JD Edwards and Infor.
Baan and Microsoft Dynamics.
Mainframe and other legacy platforms – mainframe decommissioning included.
How it works
Extract, hold, switch off
- Extract. Pull all or selected data – structured and unstructured, including archive files – from any source system into the Cella store through the Cella data transfer hub.
- Hold. Keep it in one secure, reportable platform.
- Switch off. Retire the old system for good – faster and lower-risk than keeping it running – carrying none of its cost or risk forward.
One platform
Search and report across every system
Reach every decommissioned system through a single Cella Launchpad, with access managed per system and per module. Search and report across all of them at once – filter by module, sub-module, table (including custom tables) and transaction code – so history from different systems and vendors sits together in one place.
SECURITY AND COMPLIANCE
Secure, compliant data retention
End-to-end security with encryption, audit logging and granular access by archive, module and company code, with single sign-on. A multilingual interface for global teams. Retention rules, legal hold, GDPR disposal and dual 4-eye approval are built in, and data can be held across multiple databases and countries to meet regulatory requirements.
Ready for AI
Legacy data, ready for AI
Freed from the old system and kept in its full business context, your historical data is clean, governed and ready for AI-powered natural language search and analytics across your data.
