Content Management Matters ™

Perhaps to celebrate a full year since its acquisition of Stellent, Oracle has updated its suite of content management offerings, including its hard-earned Stellent products.

There's something to put in the family scrap book.

If your husband was a pro plumber and the toilet got backed up, you wouldn't hire "Joe Does Johns" from up the street to fix the problem, would you?

Oracle might. Though it already offers comprehensive Web CMS solutions, and pours considerable resources into improving its offerings in the arena, it's chosen Joomla! and a Joomla-specific web developer to build its latest major web portal.

With the threat of litigation and the necessity of compliance looming over every organization, Oracle steps up to the records management plate with the availability of its first enterprise RM application since the acquisition of Stellent.

Today at LinuxWorld, Oracle unleashed its latest work to the open source community.

After purchasing Stellent and recently playing the tease about what they'd do with it, Oracle finally releases its first ECM offering since the acquisition.

After its acquisition of Stellent half a year ago, Oracle has been disturbingly mum about how it plans to use its new resources to beef up their existing Content Management offerings.

That silence has just been broken. Today Oracle released its broad intentions for assimilating Stellent offerings.

Marched out as the universal solution to what's ailing American business, an issue perhaps too soily for the spin cycle, Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) is now characterized by the skyrocketing costs hitting the businesses that work to comply with it. And in 2007 the debate over Sarbanes-Oxley only rages on.

Stellent, Inc. today announced the release of the Stellent Content Portlet Suite. The Content Portlet Suite is designed to enable portal developers to provide access to Stellent Universal Content Management services, such as check-in, workflow and search, via JSR-168 compliant portal servers such as BEA, WebSphere, Plumtree, and Sun Enterprise Server.

"Content Portlet Suite supports content requests from portals in real-time, directly from the content management system, through JSR 168 portlets," said Dan Ryan, executive vice president of marketing and business development for Stellent.
