Integrating Documentum Webpublisher content into WebSphere Portal
Based on a real customer implementation we will look at how to successfully integrate Documentum WCMS content into WebSphere Portal. We will discuss strategies for link management, searching and building a hybrid navigation structure. We also talk about performance optimization and lessons learned.
Lecture level: Intermediate
Entry Skills: Familiarity with basic Content Management System and WebSphere Portal concepts
Exit Skills: Good understanding on how to integrate Documentum Web Content with WebSphere Portal
Integrating Lotus Workplace Web Content Management with WebSphere Portal
The purpose of this session is to show the application architecture choices that exist in implementing a system that uses both the strengths of WebSphere Portal Server and those of ILWCM. We will focus on discussing various mechanisms and patterns that can be applied to a hybrid system, where WebSphere Portal Server delivers content and ILWCM manages that content.
Important considerations are:
- How to implement proper link management
- How to combine WebSphere Portal navigation with the ILWCM site concept
- How to display language specific content from ILWCM based on the WebSphere Portal language parameter
- How to enable the WebSphere Portal search to search for ILWCM content
Lecture level: Intermediate
Entry Skills: Familiarity with basic Content Management System and WebSphere Portal concepts
Exit Skills: Good understanding on how to integrate LWCMS with WebSphere Portal
Building a Secure Portal using Tivoli Access Manager and WebSphere Portal
During this session, we'll overview the key concepts and architecture of a secure portal solution. Based on a actual customer implementations, we will discuss all necessary components and how they interact with each other. We also look at design and integration guidelines as well as lessons learned. You will leave this session with a good understanding of the key concepts, technical product components, capabilities, and best practices to leverage to build a secure WebSphere Portal environment.
Lecture level: Intermediate
Entry Skills: Familiarity with products and components needed to architect a Secure Portal solution
Exit Skills: Ability to leverage Tivoli Access Manager together with WebSphere Portal to build a secure Portal
Architecting Portal Solutions using the Portal Composite Pattern
We will begin by introducing the IBM patterns for e-business and specifically the Portal Composite Pattern. The Portal Composite pattern is a reusable asset that captures best practice guidelines to architect Portal solutions. Based on a real world customer scenario we will demonstrate how to leverage the pattern to design the solution. You will leave this session with a good understanding for the efficiency of the IBM Patterns for e-business.
Lecture level: Intermediate
Entry Skills: Familiarity with products and components needed to architect a WebSphere Portal solution
Exit Skills: Ability to leverage the Portal Composite Pattern to architect WebSphere Portal solutions
Leveraging Java to integrate Domino Applications into WebSphere Portal
There are many options for Domino integration into the Portal, and no one method fits all needs. Using Java is currently the most versatile and powerful approach but also needs special considerations. We'll begin this session by explaining some of the key concepts of Domino Portlet development and outline the Domino access options available. We'll discuss each option in terms of performance and scalability. Next, we'll introduce the concept of Domino object pooling and show how this can significantly improve Domino Portlet performance. We'll also discuss best practices for Domino Rich-Text integration into portlets.
Lecture level: Advanced
Entry Skills: Domino backend classes
Exit Skills: Ability to build scalable and well performing Domino Portlets
Portalizing Domino Applications for WebSphere Portal
IBM Workplace Web Content Management and Websphere Portal allow you to extend the reach of your Domino applications via portlets. This session will focus on providing a strategy to determine the appropriate level of integration and an overview of the tools available to you. You'll learn how to use some of basic tools such as pre-built portlets, and see how easy it is to use the Domino Application portlet to surface your Domino web applications. We'll show how to develop portlets using the Portlet Builder for Domino.
Lecture level: Beginner
Entry Skills: Understanding of basic Portal concepts
Exit Skills: Good understanding of Domino / Portal integration options
The AO Portal for Orthopedics & Traumatology: Physician Clinical Practice, Reference, Education, and Member Services
In this session we will explain how the AO Foundation, the worldwide leading organization for research and education in orthopedics and traumatology, has employed a WebSphere Portal solution, incorporating Lotus Domino, Sametime, Team Collaboration, IBM DB2, Tivoli Access Manager, Tivoli Storage Manager and additional technologies to support their physician practice, membership and research requirements. The AO Portal supports approximately 250, 000 orthopedic surgeons worldwide and offers education, eLearning, case discussions, faculty services, reference for clinical practice (research, surgery methods, etc.), academic support (step-by-step guides to clinical studies) and member services for 7000 member surgeons, including video serving, e-mail, database research search support, and member administration services.
