Confluence is an enterprise wiki application. It is available to all University members (students and staff) to help them collaborate online. Content is organised into spaces and all UoB members can login, edit pages and create spaces.
There are many extra features, including:
Currently no training is available for Confluence but there is a Confluence user area and a demonstration space.
Information Services aims to support the technical implementation of this service but is not able to support University departments in using this new service. The aim is to provide sufficient information to ensure UoB departments can set up and self-support their own wiki.
Requests for help should be sent to service-desk@bristol.ac.uk
Failover and fallback is not available for the Confluence wiki service, although this is currently being reviewed (Autumn 2010).
