How it works

From SAP to your cloud archive in four steps

A standard SAP interface on one side, your choice of cloud storage on the other — nothing exotic in between.

1

SAP creates a document

An invoice, scan, print list or attachment is produced in S/4HANA, RISE or ECC.

2

ArchiveLink or CMIS

SAP hands it over through its standard archiving interface — ArchiveLink or the open CMIS standard.

3

The Connector routes it

CaRD Cloud Connector adds metadata, structure and security, then writes it to your target.

4

Stored audit-proof

The document lands in SharePoint, Azure Blob, AWS S3 or STACKIT — immutable and retrievable.

Storage backends

Choose the cloud — keep the costs down

The same connector writes to any of these targets. Book storage directly with your provider and benefit from low cloud prices and automatic scaling.

SharePoint

Use SharePoint Online & Microsoft 365 as your SAP archive — content types, document sets and metadata columns. Documents stay visible and usable where people already work.

Azure Blob

Microsoft cloud

Azure Blob Storage with immutability (WORM) and lifecycle tiers. Auto-scaling from a few documents to many millions — ideal for high-volume SAP archiving.

AWS S3

Amazon cloud

Amazon S3 with Object Lock for compliance-grade, write-once storage. Durable, infinitely scalable and available in every AWS region you need.

STACKIT

Sovereign · 🇩🇪 Germany

The German sovereign cloud by Schwarz Group. Object storage hosted exclusively in EU/German data centres — for the strictest data-sovereignty requirements.

Mix and match: keep finance documents in STACKIT, scans in Azure Blob and active files in SharePoint — all from one SAP system.

Revisionssicher · audit-proof

Archiving that stands up to an audit

SAP documents are written once and kept unchangeable for as long as the law requires — with a complete, verifiable trail.

  • WORM & immutabilityWrite-once storage via Azure immutable blobs, AWS S3 Object Lock and SharePoint retention.
  • Retention policiesDocuments cannot be altered or deleted before their retention period ends — GoBD & DSGVO aligned.
  • Audit trailEvery archive and retrieval is traceable, so you can prove what was stored, when and by whom.
  • Data sovereigntyChoose the region and provider — keep your data in Germany or the EU when you must.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which storage backends can I use for SAP archiving?

Archive SAP documents into Microsoft SharePoint Online, Azure Blob Storage, AWS S3 or STACKIT, the sovereign German cloud. You choose per repository, and mixed setups across providers are possible.

Is the archive audit-proof (revisionssicher)?

Yes. The connector supports immutable, write-once storage (Azure immutable blobs, AWS S3 Object Lock, SharePoint retention), retention policies and an audit trail. Documents cannot be altered or deleted before their retention period ends, meeting revision-safe requirements such as GoBD.

Which SAP systems are supported?

SAP S/4HANA private and public cloud, RISE with SAP and classic SAP ECC. ArchiveLink is used on-premise and in private cloud; CMIS additionally covers SAP Public Cloud and any system that uses CMIS as its backend archive.

How much does the cloud storage cost?

You book storage directly with your provider (Azure, AWS or STACKIT) and benefit from their low storage prices and automatic scaling. The connector itself adds no per-document storage fee, so cost stays predictable as you grow.

How secure is the connector?

We use standard Microsoft and AWS authentication and security, TLS 1.2+ and SAP SSL certificates to talk to SAP. Access is limited to your organisation, and we do not store your business data beyond the documents you archive.

Is there an on-premise version?

Yes. An on-premise connector version is available for SAP and SharePoint on-premise landscapes. Contact us to discuss version compatibility for your environment.
