SharePoint 2010 Document ID Service Feature

SharePoint 2010 provides new functionality for retrieving documents from site collection by document’s unique Ids. For enable this functionalities we need to enable site collection feature “Document ID Service”. After activating this feature, when we create new documents, system will generate and assign unique number to uploaded documents. Document ID service is a very good feature if we want to move document around into site collection, by moving the documents it’s URL is going to change but the Document ID/Unique ID will be same, so we can retrieve the documents using Document ID.
