Swedish Medical uses Oracle

Swedish Medical Center, the largest non-profit healthcare provider in the Greater Seattle area, deployed components of the Oracle Enterprise Content Management Suite, says The Sun Herald.

Oracle enterprise content management software also facilitated Swedish Medical Centre's EMR training initiative, helping the organisation ensure an on-time roll-out.

Oracle Enterprise Content Management Suite is a component of Oracle Fusion Middleware.

Windows IT Pro will take the "Enterprise 2.0 with Oracle" content management roadshow across Western Europe over the next couple of months, reports Windows IT Pro.

Bhavesh Vagela, Oracle's EMEA enterprise content management director, says: "Today, 80% of data is unstructured and some analysts estimate that figure could grow to over 100% a year, while structured information is only growing at 4%."

Following their "Enterprise 2.0" theme, the Windows IT Pro/Oracle roadshows will focus on how businesses are exploiting Web 2.0 phenomena such as blogs, wikis and RSS. "Listening to our customers, these technologies are growing in importance," says Vagela.
