Confluence

Corporate knowledge base

Confluence is the point where two or more streams or rivers flow together and merge: the confluence of the Ohio and Mississippi rivers.

The word extends to any coming together of people, ideas, or events: a confluence of factors led to the crisis, the confluence of art and technology.

In software, Confluence is a widely used collaboration and documentation platform.
