WHAT IS PORTAL+
Portal+ is the next generation portal system from Solutions Lab. It
has all the features of a typical portal plus more: |
- Portal+ allows you to reuse existing applications, not rebuild
them, for the portal.
- Portal+ enables portlet-to-portlet interoperability to automatically
provision related information amongst portlets.
- Portal+ allows construction of composite applications by arranging
portlets from multiple applications into a single view.
- Portal+ provides patent-pending personalization that treats
each portlet within the page as independent entity.

REUSE NOT REBUILD
Most portal products require the applications to conform to their
program structure and proprietary development methodology. This process
is often time consuming and tedious, not to mention, incurring additional
development cost too! With Portal+, we provide a set of migration
tools, Portal+ Studio, for you to effortlessly migrate your existing
applications onto Portal+ without you having to rebuild or redevelop
them again. |
|
By adhering to this philosophy, Portal+ helps you: |
- Enhance the value of portal exponentially.
- Have the freedom to select the applications.
- Lower support and development costs.

PORTLET-TO-PORTLET INTEROPERABILITY
A serious drawback in today's portals is the lack of provisioning
related information across portlets on the same portal page. The user
has to manually manipulate the contents of each portlet to display
helpful information, and then integrate that information in his own
head. |

| In contrast, Portal+ portlets are built with the flexibility
to interoperate by merely subscribing and getting events based on
actions initiated from another portlet. |

COMPOSITE APPLICATION DISPLAY
Given the power of portlet-to-portlet interoperability, it is easy
to envisage building composite applications in Portal+. The users
are able to mix and match applications on a single page, giving more
flexibility in portal application usage. |
| |
PATENT-PENDING PERSONALIZATION
Portal+ uses a patent-pending presentation technology for the browser
where each portlet is managed as an independent operating entity.
Each portlet can be dragged and dropped anywhere within the browser
window. Changes to a portlet are compartmentalized within the portlet
itself and when a particular portlet is contaminated, it does not
affect the other portlets within the page. |
