Oracle Buys Context Media

Added By Tony Byrne at 1-Aug-2005 | Twitter: @TonyByrne |

The enterprise content integration (ECI) vendors never got very big, but the concepts they espoused had a major impact, and now just about all the independent ones are gone, as Oracle has reportedly acquired Context Media in an asset sale. Previously Documentum had purchased AskOnce, and IBM had acquired Venetica. Vignette and Day already have some native ECI toolsets. Poor FileNet and especially Interwoven. After partnering with Venetica for ECI, Interwoven had to turn to Context Media. Now both products reside in the hands of erstwhile competitors.
