Servers

Within the OmniUpdate system, there are two servers: the Staging Server and the Production Server.

Staging

The Staging Server is used to store and serve web pages in the editing, workflow and approval process prior to going "live" on the target Production Server (world wide web). Remember, when you are making updates to your content within OmniUpdate, when you click the save button, that is only to save your work. So if you don't like the way something looks, no worries! The content will not be on the live site until you publish the page.

Production

The Production Server is updated via the Staging Server. Published pages are pushed to the Production Server and are ultimately served on the world wide web, an intranet or an extranet.

NOTE: When a file is deleted from the staging server, it is also deleted from the production server. So anytime a file is deleted, it is deleted from BOTH servers!
