'''Oracle WebCenter''' is [[Oracle Corporation|Oracle]]'s portfolio of [[user engagement]] [[software]] products built on top of the [[JavaServer Faces|JSF]]-based [[Oracle Application Development Framework]]. There are three main products that make up the WebCenter portfolio, and they can be purchased together as a suite or individually:
