Content Server

  • Content Server serves content to applications, it brings the stored content and metadata to life and manages its lifecycle and exposes a known interface for accessing content while hiding the details of how and where the files and metadata are stored.
  • Content Server provides an Application Programming Interface (API) and therefore needs applications in front of it to expose a friendly interface to human users.
  • The full set of Content Server features is exposed via Documentum Foundation Classes (DFC). DFC provides an API for interacting with the Content Server programmatically.
  •  Content Server functionality is also exposed through Documentum Foundation Services (DFS) in the form of Web services.
  • Documentum provides two command-line utilities for interacting with the Content Server—IDQL and IAPI. IDQL supports query execution while IAPI supports direct invocation of the API functions.
  • Content Server is the foundation of the Documentum platform and provides the following standard services:
    • Content management services
    • Process management services
    • Security services
    • Distributed services
