| For many years there has been a desire for organizations to consolidate and reduce the number of systems needed to do business. However, the reality has been extremely difficult, if not impossible, as requirements and information grow and the pressures to manage it all become ever more urgent. |

Portal Services

In recent years there has been a realization that the only practical way of providing an integrated and usable environment for organizations rapidly growing needs has been through use of an Enterprise Portal.
Chapter26 has extensive experience in delivering completely integrated solutions for assembling, managing and delivering a large number of Web applications within one portal framework. This portal framework provides a single open environment for a knowledge management system for cataloging all content, users, services, communities and projects created across the enterprise through application integration, search, content management, reporting and collaboration.
In deploying this portal framework organizations are able to:
- Involve customers and partners in every phase of their business.
- Promote shared spaces for people in different environments to work together.
- Create one logical view of information from all over the business.
- Automate processes and create user experiences spanning incompatible systems.
- Improve the user experience and productivity.
- Use the Internet to reach audiences that have never used computers.
- Support companies as they partner, merge and disperse.
Chapter26 believe an enterprise environment for delivering many Web applications cannot be based on one application, one application server, or one language. An enterprise portal operates as a new layer, open to all applications, application servers and languages building on and enhancing existing investments.
