The Oracle Universal Content Management Handbook

By: Dmitri Khanine

Overview of this book

Oracle UCM is a world-leading Enterprise Content Management platform. From Document Management, Web, Records, and more—Oracle has got all your business needs covered. Oracle UCM enables your organization to efficiently manage, store, preserve, and deliver content and documents. Written by Oracle ACE Dmitri Khanine, this book is a complete practical guide to building an ECM system and successfully configuring, administering, and operating it. It also shows you how to efficiently manage your organization's content and customize the UCM to fit your needs. This book wastes no time in getting you up and running and dives straight into the installation of the content server in Chapter 1. In the second chapter, you will master all the major controls and the admin interface. Metadata—a very important ingredient of any ECM—is thoroughly covered in Chapter 3. The book then moves on to the important tasks of securing your ECM system, configuring and managing workflows, and understanding and implementing virtual folders. The book also gives you an under-the-hood view of Stellent in Chapter 7. In the later chapters, you will learn how to migrate content like a pro and easily customize Oracle ECM. A bonus addition to the book is the final chapter, which is an easy-to-follow primer on web content management.

Appendix B. Detailed Oracle UCM Resource Directory

If you ever wanted to achieve your professional goals with a technology (any technology, not just Oracle UCM) a good book can help you hit the ground running, but you will need to tap into a constant flow of insider information to get on top and stay there. You may simply rely on your free newsletter subscription at: www.stellentexperts.com/handbook or, if you prefer to form an independent opinion and don't mind doing a bit of extra work—below I'm giving you a complete (to the best of my knowledge) list of Oracle UCM resources—everything from industry's most respected names to trusted service providers. More specifically, I'm giving you:

  • Free online resources: Blogs and article sites that you can scan for tips and tricks, early insights and technology reviews. I'm further dividing those into UCM-specific resources, general Oracle resources, and those covering an entire field of Information Management.

  • Publications and periodicals: A (much shorter) list of UCM-related books, magazines, and whitepapers you may want to consider reading.

  • Trusted service providers: An even shorter list of system integrators and training providers that has been around and consistently receiving good feedback from their clients.

All lists are alphabetical.

Let's start with the free online resources.
