Integrate with Oracle Commerce

Why Integrate with Oracle Commerce?

Oracle Commerce is an ecommerce platform that helps B2C and B2B businesses connect customer and sales data from their CRM to their financial and operational data so they can offer personalized experiences to buyers across sales channels.

The integration of Oracle Content Management (OCM) with Oracle Commerce lets you enhance content collaboration and streamline content creation and publication for commerce. Additionally, the cloud-based content hub promotes content reuse from a single source and accelerates experience delivery.

Once the integration is enabled, for example, marketing content such as blogs and digital assets from Oracle Content Management repositories can be pulled into Oracle Commerce to be rendered both statically and dynamically. In the screenshot below, assets such as product images and texts from Oracle Content Management repositories are published on commerce storefront pages.
