A content server is a system for centrally storing, managing and providing digital content such as documents, images, or videos. It is often used in companies to archive information in a structured and audit-proof manner.

A content server is used wherever large amounts of digital data must be securely managed and archived over the long term — for example, to store invoices, contracts or SAP data in accordance with the law.

While an ECM system (Enterprise Content Management) offers a variety of functions related to document management, workflows and collaboration, a content server usually focuses on the central archiving and structured provision of content — often in connection with third-party systems such as SAP.

Integration is carried out via standardized interfaces such as SAP ArchiveLink® or CMIS. These make it possible to automatically archive content from SAP systems in the content server and retrieve it directly from SAP as required.
