Content migration is a highly flexible process in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0. Depending on the method you use (programming against the Deployment namespace APIs, using SOAP calls to a Web service, or moving an entire site using the Stsadm.exe utility), you have extensive control of what content is migrated and how it is migrated.

Using the Windows SharePoint Services object model exposed in the Microsoft.SharePoint.Deployment namespace to migrate content at a granular level requires that you perform related tasks. This section provides documentation of some of these tasks.
