Features of Oracle Communication Suite
Oracle Communications Messaging Exchange Server
This Server provides a highly scalable, reliable, and available platform for delivering secure communication services. With extensive security features, it helps to ensure the privacy of users and the integrity of communication through user authentication, session encryption, content filtering to help prevent spam and viruses, and mechanisms to enable regulatory compliance
Oracle Communications Calendar Server
This Server facilitates team collaboration by allowing users to coordinate appointments, events, tasks, and resources. It is a valuable tool for time and resource management. With an intuitive Web-based interface, support for multiple client solutions, and synchronization capabilities, users can access their personal, public, or group calendars anytime, anywhere, from any Web-enabled device
Oracle Communications Instant Messaging Server
This server provides a standards-based, real-time communication and collaboration application, as well as a platform for presence-based application development. It delivers presence information, voice and mobile client integration, and extended real-time messaging capabilities—including IM, conferencing, alerts, news, polls, and file transfers. As both an application and a platform, the Oracle Communications Instant Messaging Server provides the reliability and availability expected by end users and the security necessary to protect the privacy of information
Convergence
Convergence is an Ajax-based Web 2.0 client that provides integrated access to e-mail, calendar, address book, and IM services via a highly intuitive and richly functional user interface.
Convergence is truly the best of both worlds, bringing the depth of features typically found only in desktop clients together with the ease of deployment of a Web-based client. Built with extensibility and customization in mind, Convergence can be deployed straight out of the box or modified to fit perfectly into any environment
Outlook Connector
The Outlook Connector enables the use of Microsoft Outlook as a desktop client on the Windows platform with the Oracle Communications Messaging Exchange Server and the Oracle Communications Calendar Server. The Outlook Connector includes a desktop deployment and configuration program and an Outlook plug-in
Indexing and Search Service
The Indexing and Search Service provides server-side indexing and search of communication content, including e-mail attachments. The Indexing and Search Service enables nearly instantaneous results from complex searches such as cross-folder searches. Because it is deployed as a separate service, the actual search effort is offloaded from the messaging server. Additionally, any IMAP client that can communicate with the Oracle Communications Messaging Exchange Server can take advantage of this powerful search capability
