Introduction

The content sources in Aspire are the units that you can install in order to retrieve and process content from a repository. A content source consists of two main parts:

• The Connector
  The connector is the responsible of scanning and fetching the content and metadata from the repository. We provide a large list of connector which you can acquire and install along with your content sources.
• The Workflow
  The workflow is the configurable processing part, it consists of plans, rules and applications.

Each content source can be configured to execute actions in a scheduled manner, for example, you can specify a content source to start Crawling everyday at 6 pm, and pause every day at 7 am.
