Preface
The previous two articles talk about project management tools at the code level. This article will introduce the knowledge management tools, which are also part of project management. When it comes to knowledge management, what do you think? Woven network? Find a node? Yes, this is personal knowledge management. What about a project or an enterprise? How should enterprises build networks and find nodes. You must have heard of the word wiki. Confluence is an enterprise wiki software based on knowledge management.
A little order
I have been thinking about it for a while before the beginning, and I have been thinking about how to make a thorough presentation. I checked the relevant information on the Internet. I feel that this piece of information is not very much, and most of the information is about the strengths of confluence and the most important installation tutorials. Based on this consideration, I plan to give a brief introduction to confluence based on the usage in the project.
Brief Introduction
Before introducing confluence, you must first understand the word wiki. So what is wiki? Wiki is a Web site that enables people to easily publish information and link it together. Wiki is an online communication software that is suitable for online information collaboration and communication. Wiki has become more and more popular in recent years. People use Wiki as a knowledge base and an online encyclopedia, and enterprises use Wiki as a simple and effective method, share content and information within the enterprise and with external business partners.
Confluence is an enterprise-level wiki software. Any organization, department, or team can use wiki to share information and content. Currently, more than 7100 users in various industries around the world are using confluence, including many large enterprises and small companies. In terms of security, confluence has excellent and fine-grained permission control, allowing users to create, edit, and add content in the Wiki? Stare. Confluence is intuitive and easy to use. You don't need to learn any new language to use it. How can you add confluence in what you see is what you get? Content.
Basic Concepts
Dashboard is the home page of your confluence system. Dashboard includes a list of all spaces on the confluence website. Another list of recently updated content.
A space is an area in the confluence system that stores your Wiki page. You can use a space as a sub-website or a small website. Each space has its own home page.
In the confluence system, pages are the main way to store and share information. The page can be linked, connected, organized, and asked, and the page is organized into a large space:
- Can I add between pages and other web sites? Connection;
- Ability to upload existing documents and images to the page;
- Each page can be changed to a topic for discussion, just like a forum;
- All pages, files, and gaze can be searched;
- The page can be organized into an inherited relationship to facilitate user browsing and drilling;
Function
Feelings
The above briefly introduces the basic concepts and functions of confluence. I am not very many people in my company today. I didn't have any good knowledge management software before I started this distributed integration platform. I used to manually maintain various project documents and was responsible by someone. Because this project is still relatively large, the boss of the company decided to introduce a knowledge management tool. After many surveys, he finally decided to use confluence with a large number of user groups. Of course, another reason for deciding to use Confluence is that the learning cost is very low.
With confluence, knowledge management in the company was immediately established. The company's projects, various documents, various technical exchange documents, and summary of various technologies have all been well managed on confluence. At the same time, confluence played a major role in developing this distributed project. Designers and developers can share documents on confluence, Download shared resources, exchange technical difficulties, share the latest technologies, and record daily morning meetings, weekly meeting records, and review meetings. In this way, the original file cannot be found after the document is transmitted.
PS: Before Confluence is installed, JDK must be installed, and the Environment Variable java_home must be configured, and MySQL must be available, and the confluence database should be created as required.
Conclusion
After talking about this, we actually talked about the usage experience of the project around confluence. Is this advertising? Haha. However, it is undeniable that by using confluence, the company's knowledge management is more standardized than the original, and project development is smoother.
