Oracle WebCenter
open-in-new
<p>Oracle WebCenter is <a href="/facts/Oracle_Corporation/0z14FygH">Oracle</a>'s portfolio of <a href="/facts/User_engagement/FxCGnY2n">user engagement</a> <a href="/facts/Software/RP79lVSW">software</a> products built on top of the <a href="/facts/JavaServer_Faces/1QhmoE1A">JSF</a>-based <a href="/facts/Oracle_Application_Development_Framework/7mqcPJfC">Oracle Application Development Framework</a>. There are three main products that make up the WebCenter portfolio, and they can be purchased together as a suite or individually: </p> <ul><li>Oracle WebCenter Content (includes WebCenter Imaging)</li> <li>Oracle WebCenter Sites</li> <li>Oracle WebCenter Portal</li></ul> <p>Each of these products are in separate but connected markets. WebCenter Content competes in the <a href="/facts/Enterprise_Content_Management/RUEFrMK5">Enterprise Content Management</a> market. WebCenter Sites competes in the Web Experience Management market, and WebCenter Portal competes in the self-service portal and content delivery market space. Different combinations of these products are frequently used together, so Oracle has bundled them together within the same WebCenter product family. </p><p>Oracle WebCenter contains a set of components for building rich web applications, <a href="/facts/Web_portal/Fj25GpUE">portals</a>, and team collaboration and social sites. Oracle WebCenter is targeted at enterprise and larger accounts that have significant content management requirements and the need to deliver that information with internal or external portals, customer-facing websites or within integrated business applications. Oracle has made a particular effort to integrate WebCenter into its leading business applications such as <a href="/facts/Oracle_E-Business_Suite/s2J7TwM3">E-Business Suite</a>, <a href="/facts/PeopleSoft/qMMqP2jJ">PeopleSoft</a> and <a href="/facts/JD_Edwards/Auj454o2">JD Edwards</a> so that content can be centrally managed in one location and shared across multiple applications. For the development community and advanced business users, WebCenter provides a development environment that includes WebCenter Framework and WebCenter Services, along with an out-of-the-box application for team collaboration and <a href="/facts/Enterprise_social_networking/9SQqLoFE">enterprise social networking</a>. According to Oracle, this is the strategic portal product, eventually replacing Oracle Portal as well as the portal products acquired from BEA. </p>
