Information Storage

The Oracle Collaboration Suite Information Storage component is an Oracle9i release 2 (9.2) database tuned for Oracle Email and Oracle Files. Because these applications create a schema, you must have a database available before you can configure Oracle Email or Oracle Files.

Oracle Email and Oracle Voicemail & Fax both use an Oracle Collaboration Suite email schema to store email, voice mail, and faxes.
Oracle Files requires a database schema to hold its files, directories, and metadata.

Other Storage

In addition to the infrastructure and information stores, Oracle Collaboration Suite requires other data stores that are not referred to as information storage or infrastructure.

Ultra Search must be installed in a schema in a database with Oracle Text (can be the information store).
Web Conferencing must be installed into an existing database (can be the information store).
Oracle Calendar uses its own data store, which is optimized for scheduling. It does not store its data in an Oracle database. The Oracle Calendar store is created on the same host as the Oracle Calendar application.
