ASR
From AlfrescoWiki
Alfresco System Receiver
One of the "deployment servers" for Alfresco. (The other being the file system receiver FSR).
The ASR is built into the Alfresco server and publishes WCM deployments into a (possibly remote) AVM repository. The content deployed to an ASR has the benefit of Alfresco content management features such as Lucene based queries, versioning, REST based access (via Web Scripts), etc.
In order to connect to an ASR two TCP ports need to be open.
