Hello, i am trying to setup a pacs server for our plartform and the choice is dcm4chee.
Now the problem i have is what is the difference between dc4mchee and dcm4chee arcieve as all of them have different wiki docummentations and different ways of installations. I am open to learn from experience and get advice how to move on with my work. thanks

dcm4che is DICOM Toolkit & Library whereas dcm4chee-arc-light is a lightweight DICOM Archive Java EE application running in WildFly.

DCM4CHE toolkit and libraries are also used by other open source products who are active on the dcm4che forum.
DCM4CHEE Archive 5.x is used primarily for storing and querying / retrieving patient examinations (DICOM objects)
