Confluence, by Atlassian, is one of the most widely used enterprise collaboration and knowledge management platforms. Teams use it to create, organize, and share internal documentation — from meeting notes and project plans to technical specs and company wikis. It integrates tightly with Atlassian's broader ecosystem, including Jira, Trello, and Bitbucket.

For organizations using dotCMS, Confluence often holds a significant portion of the internal knowledge that eventually needs to surface in external-facing digital experiences — product documentation, support articles, FAQ content, and more. Through APIs and integration layers, content teams can bridge Confluence's internal knowledge bases with dotCMS's publishing workflows, reducing duplication and ensuring that the subject matter expertise captured internally can be repurposed and governed before it reaches customers.
