Hello Friends,

Now a days, I am working with IBM Portal Server. So you will find most of the information here relevent only for IBM Portal. Anyway, I'll keep posting other portals related information too as and when possible.

Enterprise Portal Content Management

Content Management is one of the major motivations behind portals. But it is really unfortunate that there is no portal solution (at least in java world) that can fulfill even the basic content publishing requirements. A basic content management solution contains at least a content repository, content creation methods, content publishing methods, workflow and an API for content manipulation. In the past I have given a look on few major portals and reached to this conclusion. First, as usual, I have given a look on various open source portals. But other than the basic content repository and few APIs, I wasn't able to find anything. Means no open source portal can be used as an instant content publishing solution. The affair on commercial portals is also muted. The best portal server, in my opinion is IBM WebSphere Portal Server (again in java world). It comes with it's own content publishing tool called WebSphere Portal Content Publisher (WPCP). It can be used for small and m...

A Step Closer to Digital Human - Agentic Browser

Image
Recently, we saw the announcements of ChatGPT Atlas and Perplexity Comet. Both of these seem like somewhat useless products and don't appear to add much on top of a standard Chrome browser. However, I believe that these "agentic browsers" are going to have huge impact. Why? The biggest problem with current AI agents is that they cannot see what we see. They cannot consume what we consume, so they cannot act the way we act. We live much of our lives digitally and online, but our agents do not. If I were able to give my agent access to my Instagram, YouTube, WhatsApp, email, calendar, etc., it would start to think more and more like me. Since the browser already has access to all of this, it is the key component required. There are one or two more features that would be required to make a big impact.  First, we would need the ability to schedule tasks. This way, my agent could be like me, checking WhatsApp, email, and YouTube periodically. Second, like Cursor and Claude Cod...

IDE for JSR 286 Portlet Development

We are starting a new project on JSR 286 and wondering what should be the best IDE for JSR 286 portlet development. The project is on IBM, so IBM RAD (Rapid Application Developer) was the first choice. Though as of now the latest production release 7.0 doesn't support JSR 286 and 7.5 version which supports JSR 286 is just in beta stage. IBM has not communicated any clear date for GA. I think it leaves us to "Portal Pack 2.0 for NetBeans 6.1", a plugin for NetBeans. I have not tested it yet, but it says the support of JSR 286. I am not sure whether it has embedded JSR 286 container for testing portlet within IDE or not? I'll check and update on this. By the way, have you started developing JSR 286 portlets? If yes, which IDE do you use?
