difference between content server and archive server

[#1]

I am very interested about difference between content server and archive server. Is there content server supplied by SAP and archive server by third party producers or something else?

If so dditionally what needs to be done to archive data (via Sara) on content server. I did it on sap R/3 4.0 on an archive server. Is it huge difference to do it on 4.7x2 on content server?

Hi,

Archive server is provided by 3rd party software vendors and SAP Content Server is provided by SAP (free of cost). SAP Content server configuration is different than archive serve. Refer the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/59/fba637fcf7dc39e10000009b38f8cf/content.htm">link</a> for more details.

Hope this helps

Cheers!
