Qlik Gold Client for SAP Data Management and Migration

Large SAP production systems contain significant volumes of business data, but development, testing, training, and support teams rarely need a complete copy of the production environment. Creating full copies for every non-production system increases storage requirements and makes test environment preparation more resource-intensive.

Qlik Gold Client enables organizations to create smaller, relevant subsets of SAP data and selectively move them from production to non-production environments. Related business data and its logical and referential relationships are preserved, allowing teams to work with the information required for a specific process or testing scenario without duplicating the entire SAP production system.

SAP Test Data Management with Qlik Gold Client

Qlik Gold Client supports SAP Test Data Management by providing controlled selection and movement of production data into test, development, and training environments.

Instead of refreshing a non-production system with a complete production copy, technical teams can prepare SAP test data according to the requirements of a particular project.

Qlik Gold Client helps organizations:

• create relevant SAP test data subsets from production data;
• select and transfer data for specific business processes and testing scenarios;
• maintain logical and referential integrity of related SAP data;
• refresh test and development environments without copying the complete production system;
• reduce data volumes in non-production SAP environments;
• accelerate data preparation for development, testing, and training;
• control the movement of sensitive production information into non-production systems.

This approach makes it possible to manage SAP test environments according to actual project requirements rather than the total size of the production database.

Qlik Gold Client Solutions in Azerbaijan

RBC Group provides Qlik Gold Client implementation in Azerbaijan for organizations that need more efficient SAP Data Management, Test Data Management, and Data Migration processes.

A project can include:

• assessment of the existing SAP landscape and data requirements;
• definition of SAP Test Data Management scenarios;
• Qlik Gold Client licensing and deployment;
• solution installation and configuration;
• setup of selective SAP data copying and transfer;
• configuration of Data Masking scenarios;
• preparation of SAP Data Migration processes;
• training for technical teams;
• technical support and further solution development.

The implementation is designed around the organization’s existing production and non-production environments, SAP architecture, data volumes, and requirements for testing, development, migration, and data protection.

Data Masking and Protection of SAP Production Data

Using production data in test, development, or training systems creates an additional challenge: sensitive information should not automatically become available to everyone who works with a non-production environment.

Qlik Gold Client supports Data Masking scenarios that help protect sensitive information when production data is transferred to non-production SAP systems.

At the same time, Test Data Management needs to preserve the business context of the selected information. Moving isolated records or tables may not be sufficient because SAP data is connected through business logic and relationships.

Qlik Gold Client allows relevant datasets to be transferred together with related information, helping teams create realistic test conditions while avoiding a full copy of the production environment.

Selective SAP Data Migration

Qlik Gold Client can also support SAP Data Migration scenarios where only a defined part of the existing business data needs to be transferred to the target system.

Rather than moving the complete historical dataset, organizations can determine which SAP data is required for the target environment. This approach can be used to:

1. prepare SAP data for migration;
2. move selected datasets between SAP systems;
3. create or refresh non-production environments;
4. reduce the volume of data being copied;
5. prepare controlled datasets for testing system changes.

Selective Data Migration and Data Management can reduce unnecessary data in target environments and make large SAP landscapes easier to manage.

Optimizing SAP Non-Production Environments

As SAP production systems grow, creating and maintaining full copies for multiple test, development, and training environments requires more infrastructure resources.

Qlik Gold Client enables organizations to move from full system copies to controlled management of relevant SAP datasets. This can help reduce non-production data volumes, accelerate environment preparation, protect sensitive production information, and provide appropriate test data for development and testing teams.

RBC Group helps organizations implement Qlik Gold Client in Azerbaijan according to their SAP landscape and requirements for SAP Test Data Management, Data Masking, Data Migration, and corporate Data Management.
