    Hi, can anyone tell me the difference between database server & archive server?

    Once I heard that one is to store files and the other one is to store settings. But I am not sure which is which.

    Help needed here please.

    In what context?

    There isn't something specifically called an 'archive server'. You can have a database server that stores the archived portions of databases, a file server that stores archived files, but 'archive server' isn't really a specific role.
