SAP Content Server question and roadmap?

[Former Member]

Hi all,

One of our customers has an 4.x SAP Content Server and wants to know if they can utilize it to store PDF and pictures.

Based on the initial search i saw that needs to be updated to 6.x, however before doing so I wanted to see if it's supported and/or replaced by any other product. I wanted to make sure the product is still "alive" before making investment. So I went to SAP roadmaps site but not able to find any product called Content Server.

1) Can you please tell me where I can find the roadmap for this product?

2) Is this product has a new name?

3) The client want to use this just to store images/pdf's. They will not use it to integrate with SAP ECC/NetWeaver product, we will use this basically store and retrieve images/pdf's for a mobile app. Since there will be no SAP integration I think we can use a regular DB/SharePoint etc to store images, instead of SAP content server. What's your thought on this?

Appreciate your help

Regards,

Tansu

Hi all,

I have a similar concern as Tansu.

In addition, SAP Content Server has a size constraint of 16TB because of MaxDB limit. It will be expanded to 32TB as per https://scn.sap.com/thread/3869465 later in 2016.

But it is not clear how to scale if SAP plan any investments in the future of this product.
