Description

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.

This handbook was something I would have paid a lot of money couple of years ago! This is definitely a book that every UCM developer or consultant should read during the first year when they are starting to work with UCM.For an experienced UCM developer (or who has paid a lot of money for Oracle University courses) this book probably only offers some random tips and practical advice for working in different customer projects - but I would still recommend buying this book. The book is written by a guy who really seems to know his stuff - and the book has a lot of practical advice what you need when you are doing large projects with UCM for the first time.Most of this book is not for sales guys or training consultants or project managers since this is very practical and technical book. There are a few chapters which give good advice for project managers and for the customer side (eg. in explaining the importance of metadata model planning with UCM), but they are quite short chapters and do not really offer any larger perspective for how UCM projects should be planned. But even those little pieces of information probably are worth the 50 dollars and the few hours spent in reading.For requirement analysis consultants and sales guys I would recommend the Transforming Infoglut! book which is much more about the big picture of Fusion product line and only talks about UCM in examples. That is probably the biggest difference compared to this book. This handbook does not really explain where UCM is the best fit and how it should be used - this book only explains how to get it up and running, how to configure it best and what are the most interesting features and usage scenarios. This book doesn't help in understanding how UCM fits to the big picture of Oracle's information management product set. For that purpose you really need to read Transforming Infoglut! (and even that doesn't give you all the answers, but then again that tells you already quite much about what kind of monster you are trying to tackle...).Perttu TolvanenEnterprise Content Management Consultant

Good basic write up. Worth my investment

This book needs to be updated. It is for 10gR3 web content server. The very first chapter throws you off. It is not worth the 56$ if you want to go about learning 11g since everything is in Weblogic now.
