Oracle WebCenter 11g includes components that provide a full range of functionality to develop the Web-based applications you need, and to maintain an efficient enterprise consisting of Internet and extranet Web sites, enterprise portals and intranets, and composite applications. These components are:

Oracle WebCenter Framework: A declarative JavaServer Faces (JSF)-based framework that enables embedding of AJAX-based components, portlets, services, and content into context-rich customizable applications and enterprise portals. Leveraging a revolutionary way of layering customizations, these applications and portals store user changes in Oracle Metadata Services (MDS), which is used across all of Oracle Fusion Middleware and is the foundation for Oracle Fusion Applications (OFA). Oracle WebCenter Framework insulates users and developers from patching and upgrades to make businesses more agile. It is delivered as an extension to Oracle JDeveloper, which provides an integrated development environment for composite J2EE applications, business processes, BI applications, and enterprise portals.
Oracle WebCenter Spaces: A ready-to-use application that pulls together WebCenter Services to empower teams to quickly and efficiently manage their information, applications, projects, and people. Oracle WebCenter Spaces allows users to work more effectively with project teams and work groups, including teams that span multiple geographies or include external members. It eliminates or reduces duplication of effort and content inconsistencies, and enables sharing and collaboration on team content to focus valuable resources on solving business problems, tapping into new ideas, and reducing time to market. Additionally, it provides breakthrough technology to enable unstructured projects and activities to be managed and embedded in the context of an existing business application.
Oracle Composer: Enables runtime customization and personalization of JSF applications that are created with Oracle WebCenter Framework, and includes a set of services to create and manage JSF pages at runtime. Runtime customizations are managed by Oracle Metadata Services (MDS). Oracle Composer includes the ability to show the components that can be added to any page through the Resource Catalog.
WebCenter Services: Includes Web 2.0 content and communication services that can be embedded directly into an application, or used to enhance your Oracle Portal, Oracle WebLogic Portal, and Oracle WebCenter Interaction applications. Services include discussions, wikis, blogs, lists, tags, links, documents, search, instant messaging and presence, REST-based application integration, usage analytics, and BPEL-based workflow.
