Why Integrate with Oracle WebCenter Content?

Oracle WebCenter Content belongs to Oracle Fusion Middleware, a comprehensive family of software products that includes a range of application development tools and services. The integration of Oracle Content Management with Oracle WebCenter Content makes it easy to manage content in either environment and to share content between the two.

Need to collaborate with team members in the cloud? Users can collaborate on cloud content whether they are in the cloud, on their phone, or on-premise. This makes it possible for enterprises with investment in on-premise applications to leverage their investment while taking advantage of the rapidly expanding set of cloud offerings. Users can manage cloud content and move content between the cloud and on-premise installations.
