WSRP FAQ

For quite long, I had not checked OASIS's website. Today somehow I got the link of WSRP FAQ and found it contains answers of many common questions (yes, I know it is FAQ). For people who don't know what is OASIS, it is the committee taking care of WSRP standard; in fact many web services related standards. WSRP is still an evolving technology and on my WSRP discussion forum, people ask very basic questions. Most of the people are not very sure what WSRP can do, what it can not, how to do that etc.

OASIS website has few very useful documents. These two documents are must read, if you are related to WSRP, in any ways -


You can have a quick glance on contents here -

  • What is the difference between JSR 168 and WSRP?

  • What is a WSRP Producer?

  • What is a WSRP Consumer?

  • How does a Consumer discover a Producer and the Portlets it offers?

  • What are the standard WSRP user categories supposed to mean in a real-world environment? Are there any generally accepted practices for assigning
    behavior to a user category?

  • What happens during the registration process?

  • Is it valid for a Producer to change the set of required registration properties after Consumers have registered? If so, how does the Consumer learn of this change?

  • Should a Producer respond with an InvalidRegistrationFault when a
    modifyRegistration() invocation fails because the required registration
    properties have changed?

  • How does a Consumer assert to a Producer an anonymous user (or that it does not know the user)?

  • What does it mean to pass a null UserContext to operations that take it for the purpose of filtering the returned data on the user information in the context?

  • How does caching work with WSRP? Will my WSRP Producer be overwhelmed by
    requests?

  • How can user Portlet preferences be saved? What are the typical patterns for
    preference storage?

  • Can WSRP Portlets be used with other devices like PDAs or cell phones?

  • How does WSRP address security?

  • Can a WSRP Portlet introduce anything malicious into my portal?

  • What concept does WSRP have of sessions?

  • How does a Consumer's user sessions relate to sessions on a Producer?

  • Can Portlet session state be shared between WSRP Portlets that are hosted on the same Producer?

  • Are there any JavaScript conventions for use in URLs?

  • How do I generate Java building stubs, skeletons, and datatypes from the WSRP TC WSDL files?

Web Clipping for Portals goes Mainstream

Lack of good web clippers (aka URL scrappers) in the market obstructs quick portal adoption. Web Clipping is one of the fastest methods for integrating existing applications with the portals. Though nearly all portals come with web clipper tools/ portlets but most of them lack the professional touch. Kapow and Clickmarks are two such companies in the market whose products are quite advanced in comparison to out-of-box web clipping portlets provided with most portals. Yesterday's announcement by Kapow Technology for the release of version 6.0 of "RoboSuite Web Integration platform" will definitely boost this market. Kapow Press Release

Firebase upgraded properties are not yet supported in Google Analytics App

Image
Recently I saw a message in Firebase Console to upgrade my Firebase property to Google Analytics property. Such properties are called Google Analytics App + Web properties in GA after upgrade. The primary benefit for upgrading the property that I see is that we can see all Firebase Analytics data in Google Analytics. Google Analytics is a tool that we all have used for years and it is slightly easier for me. I am also more comfortable doing analysis using Google Analytics than Firebase Analytics. On top of that we also get benefit of third party integrations like AdWords (now Google Ads) integration if we get all the data from Firebase Analytics into Google Analytics. So, I upgraded my Firebase property to Google Analytics property. The was a pleasant experience to see all Firebase Analytics data in Google Analytics in the format that I understand much better. But soon I realized that there is one important part missing. On The Go, I use Google Analytics App to get a quick glance of

Now a days I see many requests for buying my Android Apps. It looks like a new business of sell & purchase of mobile app is coming up. Buying and selling websites and domain is there for quite some time now but app trading is something which looks like a recent phenomenon. Till now there is no way we can calculate price of an app for buying and selling. Keeping this in mind, I have created a website ( http://www.appprice.org/ ) and an mobile app for android (link on the website). Our " App Price Calculator " uses a formula developed by us which gives you an approximate cost of your app. This cost can be used for estimating worth of your app. Please have a look and let me know your feedback -  App Price Calculator
