Wiki's are multiplying in my company but they are all on MySQL using open source Wiki software. Does anyone have Wiki built on Oracle DB? 4  out of 11 found this valuable. Do you?

Both Twiki and Confluence run on Oracle, I believe. 0  out of 3 found this valuable. Do you?

Confluence definitely runs on Oracle. I had Confluence installed on Oracle9iR2, at my last gig.

Oracle WebCenter Suite does have a Wiki, see http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/webcenter/gettingstarted.html (near the bottom of the page).
The WbCenter Suite Wiki is based on yawiki, not Wetpaint.

I have no idea why Oracle uses yawiki for WebCenter Suite, and Wetpaint for this wiki. 0  out of 2 found this valuable. Do you?

Hi Collip,

As far as my knowledge is concern this can be possible there is any to change the few Code Base of the Wiki & it will works with Oracle DB.

Please let me know If I am wrong.

Thanks,

MediaWiki supported Oracle for versions 1.5 and 1.6. Unfortunately, as no maintainer stepped up, support was dropped in 1.7 :( The supporting code is still out there if someone wanted to use it. 5  out of 7 found this valuable. Do you?
