Integrated security suite of subtly portal, content, collaboration and search capabilities.

Although the use of portal technology to manage the expanding of the Web application has 成为 general trend, but the technical managers are often ignored Xuqiu Que, that all the Hexingongneng such as content management, search, security, all require extended to all Web applications and going. Therefore, many companies often satisfied in a number of local features only a small amount of good support portal applications. However, the portals can not provide a comprehensive management framework, we can not help you reduce development and maintenance costs.



Plumtree Enterprise Web Suite includes all of the latest version of Plumtree products. One of the Plumtree Corporate Portal 5.0 offers new community management, knowledge management and system management functions, most notably the increase in the index content on other system functions and security agents.

Meanwhile, the suite of other servers - Search Server, Collaboration Server, Content Server and Studio Server (for the Portlet Development) - portal integration capabilities and further enhancements. Another important feature is that you get a completely based on Web Services (Java or. Net) architecture, which simplifies the portal application to create and customize the user interface work.

Plumtree Corporate Portal 5.0 simplifies the installation process, compared with 4.0, the deployment of custom applications only less steps and time. For example, pre-configured menu design and navigation will initialize the installation time to around half a day. Consistent throughout the portal page to the intuitive navigation method, which simplifies the management and use of the portal.

Similarly, through the task from the drop-down list, select and point it to a particular object, can easily generate the template page and the community. For example, to generate a template page, first of all you can to the coordination server directory, select a variety of built-in Portlet (including calendars, discussions, task lists, etc.), then drag them to the page I want to put in place.



Portal usually give each user a customized them to your personal home page, Plumtree, of course can easily achieve. However, the current really useful is that community-based portal application, which is a feature Plumtree5.0 strong. As with other tasks, community applications, generate simple and rapid.

The next test is how to generate knowledge base directory. In the absence of any difficulties encountered, the tests were created for the documents, news, web directory structure. First, the testers for each directory you can set filters to limit access to the contents of this directory; and then, testers use the WWW to find climbing device (Crawler) scan the external Web site to obtain market information of interest to competing products, and asked to climb to find storage device the results to the appropriate directory. Plumtree included other climbing device can also search the file system from Windows, Novell servers, Documentum, Microsoft Exchange and Lotus Notes to import content.

Portal in the manual search function can be well let users find information in the Knowledge Directory. In addition, the test to use the snapshot query (Snapshot Query) Portlet automatically technical documentation in the directory search, and display the results in the user personal home page and community pages. In other searches, users will only see them be able to access the link.

As mentioned earlier, to search for content in other systems is a good feature, but equally important is how to create content within the portal database. Testers using Plumtree Content Server to complete the work. In short, it requires users to fill in the form of information, information content and then publish the form of a web page out. Information by selecting and customizing Portlet, I created a approval workflow. The end result is to obtain a list of some recent news, the user can add to their home page, and all these are only to be very little time and effort.

In the Plumtree there is another way in Portlet development of automation can be achieved, it is to use the Stadio Server provides "poll", "survey", "databse connection" and other portlets. I chose to try the database Portlet, which the wizard will guide me to choose I want to show the database fields and determine whether the user Portlet update the database.

Finally, the testers on the company Web Development Kit (EDK, Enterprise Web Development Kit) for a trial test to write a simple Java Portlet to display the "Silk Road Technology" Eprise content management system reports. For large-scale coding is concerned, you can visit the Plumtree EDK portal provides authentication, climbing search, search and other related services will no doubt prove very valuable. Tests were run by visiting a Web site used in this way to see this. Using this system, only Siebel CRM system in the related field 通过 Portlet is displayed, and then update the 数据 was again Cunchu Hui Siebel database, all of which Du through single sign of Plumtree Menhu Lai Wan Cheng thereby shielding Le Siebel system's internal complexity.

Plumtree will be an integrated portal as a number of different Web applications and management tools.

Plumtree to achieve this goal the company made a very good job.
