Universal WCMS / Portal Integration Pattern
Many customers have a need to integrate content from their existing WCM-Systems into WebSphere Portal.
Unfortunately there are no good content integration Portlets available.
Standard integration requirements are:
- Seamless integration of WCMS content
- Working inter-content links inside of the Portal framework
- Automatic content mapping between WCMS content structure and Portal navigational model
- Multilingual content support
- Integration with Portal Search
WP Experts has developed a comprehensive WCMS/Portal Integration Pattern, that allows to integrate content from any WCMS into WebSphere Portal.
The Pattern is supported by a set of Portlets, which are currently available for the following WCMS.
- IBM Workplace Web Content Management
- Aptrix (Domino Edition)
- Documentum
- TeamSite
- you@web
Features and Functions
- Seamless integration of WCMS content into the Portal
- Working inter-content links – even across Portal pages
- Automatic mapping schemas for the content models
- Hybrid Navigation model (Portal + content driven)
- Multilingual support
- Personalization
- Portal search integration
A good example for our Integration Pattern is the Medical Portal of the AO Foundation. All content is managed inside of the WCMS and integrated through our "Universal Integration Portlets".
This following presentation outlines our integration approach.
