This book gives all that is needed to know in order to install and configure OCS for use. It is the first book to market on the dominant product for enterprise-level collaboration. However, it is much more than a to-do list. It covers the architecture of the server processes and the applications, giving the theoretical knowledge necessary to take OCS beyond the basics. If the reader is new to the Oracle database, the Oracle Components for Java (OC4J) environment, HTTP web servers, or LDAP internet directories, they need not worry - all is explained. If already familiar with such things, the reader will learn how to exploit them to the full in order to optimize their OCS installation.
