Administering the SAS Content Server

About the SAS Content Server

The SAS Content Server is a content repository that stores digital content (such as documents, reports, and images) created and used by SAS client applications. Examples of such content include reports and documents created by users of SAS Web Report Studio and the SAS Information Delivery Portal.

The Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) protocol is currently the main method used to access the SAS Content Server. In addition to the basic features of HTTP, the WebDAV protocol is an extension to HTTP and provides write access, version control, search, and other features.

The SAS Content Server starts automatically when the Web application server is started and depends on the SAS Services Application. The SAS Services Application deploys a set of services called Remote Services that are used by SAS Information Delivery Portal, the SAS Stored Process Web application, and other Web applications. The SAS Services Application must be started before you start your Web application server.
