Images, documents, web pages and other content types in this case are referred to as unstructured content. Since the amount of this content continually increases or grows within an organization on a daily basis the challenges associated with its distribution, management as well as creation continues to grow in tandem. Oracle’s WebCenter interface provides a solution to this matter.   Oracle’s WebCenter content’s unified architecture makes it possible for all ECM (Enterprise content management) applications to be deployed on the same platform. This allows organizations to house and deliver unstructured content to multiple enterprise applications in their proper form. This technology allows companies and or organizations to efficiently and effectively build content rich applications, reuse content and integrate a large number of content services with other company applications. Enterprise content management applications help reduce resource bottlenecks, decrease costs, share content effectively, automate processes, effectively manage risk and minimize the number of lost documents within an organization.   Oracle WebCenter offers organizations a truly unified Enterprise content management platform that provides a full collection of rich EMC functionality including image and document management, digital asset management, content publishing as well as records and retention management. Oracle WebCenter is a truly unified platform that delivers on the EMC promise by providing a single point of control, increasing user adoption and decreasing administrative and other ownership costs. Oracle WebCenter unified architecture makes certain that ECM specific content management capabilities are interchangeable, complimentary and extensible to each other as well as deployable on the same...
