Understanding the Oracle WebCenter Integration

Oracle WebCenter is a collaborative portal environment that provides an infrastructure for enterprise-wide collaboration. Oracle WebCenter Spaces and Oracle WebCenter Services provide a comprehensive set of standards-based components that enrich your PeopleSoft applications with the most complete and open set of Enterprise 2.0 capabilities in the industry.

Oracle WebCenter Spaces allows users to work more effectively with project teams and work groups, including teams that span multiple geographies and include external members. Within the context of a space, Oracle WebCenter Services provide the capability to include wikis, blogs, communications, content collaboration and social networks. PeopleTools, by leveraging the PeopleSoft Related Content Framework, enables you to integrate WebCenter group spaces and many of the accompanying features with PeopleSoft transaction pages. The following WebCenter related content services are standard with your PeopleTools installation and are available for use with any PeopleSoft transaction page:

• Blogs

• Discussions

• Documents

• Links

• Wikis

Note:

As of PeopleTools 8.54, integration with Oracle WebCenter through the delivered related content services has been desupported. These service definitions may be removed from a future release of PeopleTools.
