Overview

Oracle Content Services is a database-centric content management system that provides an integrated solution for file and document lifecycle management. Oracle Content Services enables enterprise customers to utilize one application to manage all of their unstructured information.

Application Administration tasks performed by the Business Administrator involves managing users, quota, libraries, categories, content, and records at the Site and Container level. Application administration is divided into multiple administrator roles that can be assigned at the Site level only or at both the Site and Container level.

In Oracle Content Services, a Site is a discrete organizational entity whose users can collaborate on files and folders. Users in one Site do not have access to the content of users in another Site. Each Site has an allocated quota that specifies the amount of content (in MB, GB, or TB) that can be stored in the Site.

Site Administrators in Oracle Content Services can provide the ability to grant public access for specific items and Library creation request for the Site folder. This tutorial covers how to grant public access and how to grant requests for library creation.
