What does each site of a vanilla 9.1 installation do?












2















I just installed a Vanilla 9.1 instance as part of my upgrade process. I used the XP Scaled Topology, as I will need some of its features.



After installation, I found the following sites in IIS:



enter image description here



I can guess some of them - cd, cm, identityserver - but I'm at a loss for the others.



Question



What is the function of the .collection, .ma, .mareporting, .prc, .processingEngine, .refdata, .rep, .reporting, .search websites in Sitecore 9.1?

  • All the roles are described here doc.sitecore.com/developers/91/… . I don't think copying that amount of content from official Sitecore documentation site is ok with their copyrights, so I will not include this as an answer.
