At the base of the Documentum platform is the enterprise content repository andDocumentum Content Server, which manages the repository and implements the corecontent management capabilities. Content Server makes these capabilities available toclients and applications through the interface layer.
Documentum Content Server is the software that manages the content repository andprovides the fundamental content management capabilities. The Documentum contentrepository uses an extensible object model to store content and its associated metadata.
The enterprise content repository that Documentum manages is an abstract repositoryconsisting of data stored in distinct physical sources; Content Server coordinates thedifferent forms of data to create the object-based repository. Documents are composed ofcontent files (the source file in its native format) and document attributes (also known asmetadata or properties), such as document owner, version, and creation date, Theseattributes seen as metadata describing the content and the relationships between thiscontent and other objects in the repository. The repository uses the metadata to organizethe content, and users can use it to search for content that is relevant to them.
