IBM WebSphere Portal Version 6.0 Announced

After a long time, IBM announced a major release for WebSphere Portal. The new release, version 6.0, has improved in following departments -

1. Workflow (introduced a new workflow builder)
2. Content Management (unveiled IBM Workplace Web Content Management Version 6.0)
3. Electronic Forms (incorporated IBM Workplace Forms), and
4. Alignment with Bowstreet Portlet Factory (Now WebSphere Portlet Factory)

I have yet to check the new release, but seeing the press release not many new features sound interesting. I hope that they would have fixed lots of problems with IWWCM and made it a usable product now. Also I hope that they didn't integrate atrocious Portlet Factory tightly with WebSphere Portal. I would love to see what all other changes are there. For example I would love to see and better AJAX based look and feel.

Check announcement here.

    It looks like there is going to be some nice additional capabilites of the Notes View portlet including it's companion the Notes Document portlet.

    I'm also interested to see what Ed Brill was referring to when he spoke of portal borrowing some of the Notes template concepts and the content management tools.

    Websphere portal 6 is going to embrace SOA/SCA architecture and will integrate with business process. Recently I am working on websphere Enterprise service Bus and Websphere Process server both are based on SOA architecture and in version 6 of portal they are going to provide better integration capabilities with these products and other SCA based services.

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 ...
