One-Click Archiving: EMA Print Streamlines Legacy System Migration
Businesses face the challenge of maintaining compliance-ready document archives from legacy IT systems / ARTEC IT Solutions reports increasing market demand
Karben, 20 November 2024 – Many organisations currently face the task of phasing out outdated IT systems. Transferring existing data to a central archive often poses a significant challenge for companies and their IT service providers. Maintaining legacy systems ties up resources, incurs substantial costs, and may lead to parallel data storage structures. Meanwhile, critical documents must remain securely accessible and stored in compliance with regulatory requirements.
ARTEC IT Solutions' EMA Print is a purpose-built extension for the EMA Live Archive designed to address this scenario. The module enables document archiving through a virtual printing process. Users need only initiate a print command within existing legacy systems to automatically transfer any document into the legally compliant Live Archive. This process can occur during regular operations. Once all required documents are archived, the legacy system can be decommissioned without complications.
During the EMA Print archiving process, all documents receive electronic timestamps, digital signatures, and encryption. This ensures maximum security and legal compliance, meeting even the strictest regulatory requirements. Additionally, document handling becomes significantly more efficient, as the powerful EMA full-text search enables rapid information retrieval. EMA Print is compatible with diverse IT environments and integrates seamlessly into existing workflows.
"We are currently experiencing growing demand for legacy system migration solutions. EMA Print frequently proves to be a functional and efficient solution, particularly when dealing with outdated systems that retain printing capabilities despite no longer being used operationally", says Nils Artishdad, Managing Director at ARTEC IT Solutions GmbH. "This enables a low-threshold, hassle-free complete migration away from these systems, often resulting in significant IT infrastructure cost reductions."
EMA is designed as a Live Archive and global enterprise data search engine for comprehensive information management. The solution covers all processes throughout the enterprise data lifecycle: from centralised capture through efficient, controlled utilisation to secure storage and long-term, legally compliant archiving.
