Report Excerpt

The Enterprise Portals Report 2009 looks at... Oracle Portal 10g

"By default, the portal comes with a simple Web search engine called UltraSearch. It's not pretty out of the box and you'll probably want to spend time updating the user interface. UltraSearch can also only search and index public content. In other words, secure content will not be indexed at all."

(p. 175)

eXo upgrades and changes positioning to webOS

11-Jan-2007

Open Source vendor eXo recently announced a new version of their portal package. According to eXo Platform CEO Benjamin Mestrallet the new 2.0 release has a 100% AJAX based user interface, which by design should resemble a desktop-like UI. "Current personal pages like Netvibes are also in that trend and introduce more interaction with the user but that is just a transition phase to a full OS environment inside the browser," says Mestrallet. I remain sceptical of portal dashboard interfaces, but take a look at a couple of screenshots of the new release and judge for yourself. As readers of the Enterprise Portals Report know, eXo excels mainly at the simpler scenarios. Version 2, while still only in alpha, does not seem to change this.
