Oracle WebCenter Quick Start Oracle WebCenter is an integrated suite of technology designed to deliver a unified, context-aware user experience specifically targeted at the needs of information workers. By bringing together the standards-based, declarative development of JavaServer Faces, the flexibility and power of portals, and a set of horizontal Web 2.0 services, Oracle WebCenter provides a unique ability to build context-rich, customizable applications that eliminate context shifts and maximize productivity.

Java, JSF, and ADF Faces Oracle WebCenter is based on technologies such as J2EE, Java Server Faces (JSF), and the Oracle Application Development Framework (ADF). Having a basic knowledge of these technologies will help you quickly come up to speed with WebCenter.
Service-Oriented Architecture Oracle WebCenter provides the services and components for creating a highly productive user interaction environment that takes full advantage of the services enabled and managed by SOA Suite. Oracle SOA Suite provides the back-end services and management capabilities needed to implement SOA.
One of the key standards accelerating the adoption of SOA is Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) for Web Services. BPEL enables organizations to automate their business processes by orchestrating services.
Oracle JDeveloper Oracle JDeveloper provides all you need for developing and testing WebCenter applications: a unified development environment, an integrated, preconfigured OC4J to deploy your portlets and consume them in your JSF applications, ability to define JSR 227 data controls, and new, customizable JSF components to build applications supporting runtime customizations.
WebCenter incorporates Web 2.0 content, collaboration, and communication services that can be embedded directly into your applications. In addition, APIs can be utilized in the Oracle ADF to create custom declarative UIs and to integrate some of these services into business processes and application features.
Oracle Content Database Suite
Oracle Content Database Suite is an enterprise-wide content management solution based on Oracle Database 10g. It enables organizations to control and manage large volumes of unstructured content such as documents, spreadsheets, and images in a single, authoritative repository without changing the way people work.
Oracle Secure Enterprise Search (SES)
Oracle Secure Enterprise Search 10g, a standalone product from Oracle, enables a secure, high quality, easy-to-use search across all enterprise information assets.
Oracle Communication and Mobility Server (OCMS)
WebCenter leverages Oracle's robust wireless platform to bring the benefits of a unified work environment to all types of mobile technologies, including connected devices such as PDAs and Smartphones, Mobile Voice, Mobile Messaging and even Telnet-based devices for industrial users.
