Red Hat JBoss Portal Platform

A proven solution for building high-impact, self-service applications

An expensive, rigid stack doesn't give you flexibility to rapidly build the high-impact, self-service applications your business needs. But creating a complex application from scratch can be risky.

Red Hat® JBoss® Portal Platform gives you the best of both worlds—reliable, enterprise performance coupled with flexibility and easy integration.

Meet your business goals with Red Hat JBoss Portal Platform

Lightweight and powerful, Red Hat® JBoss® Portal Platform helps you:

  • Extend your market reach. Free up your sales and marketing staff to focus on your high-margin, specialty offerings. Use Red Hat JBoss Portal Platform to promote lower-margin products and expand into new geographies that don’t yet justify on-the-ground sales and marketing staff.
  • Empower your customers. Deliver targeted, localized self-service content, lowering your operational cost while improving your customers' service experience.
  • Enable your partner networks. Arm your partners with self-branded, highly customizable applications that perform reliably and predictably under diverse and demanding production environments.

BENEFITS & FEATURES

Deliver powerful performance and scale

Built on Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform, Red Hat JBoss Portal Platform delivers a high-performing, highly scalable portal solution while maintaining an extremely light footprint.

Red Hat JBoss Portal Platform uses scalable clustering to support numerous changes and millions of users. As a result, you benefit from minimal maintenance and near-zero downtime. Its high-availability services offer the clustering, caching, failover, load balancing, and distributed deployment features you require in a portal platform.

Get value from your existing technology

Bring your best technology together

Web applications are highly integrated with other dynamic systems such as content management, service-oriented architecture (SOA), and business intelligence systems. With Red Hat JBoss Portal Platform, you can integrate your current systems instead of completely replacing what you already own.

Your internal and external end users can have access to, and interaction with, back-end applications, SOA services, and web applications.  And, advanced application bridging through JBoss Portlet Bridge lets you easily integrate your existing technology with Red Hat JBoss Portal Platform.

Get the most from your JBoss investment

JBoss Portal Platform was built to interact seamlessly with Red Hat JBoss Middleware. The portal:

  • Runs on Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform technology. 
  • Offers developer-friendly tooling such as Portlet Bridge and integration with Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio

Additionally, the Red Hat JBoss Operations Network management plug-in gives you a single interface for managing JBoss Portal Platform and the rest of your JBoss portfolio.

Make the most of your existing hardware, software and developer investments—saving money and achieving faster time-to-value.

Reduce development and maintenance times

Straightforward developer tooling

A developer-friendly environment simplifies portlet development and system integration. The tooling plug-in for Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio allows developers to develop, test, and deploy portlets without having to leave the development environment.

Within Red Hat JBoss Portal Platform, JBoss Portlet Bridge lets developers deploy JSF2 and RichFaces4 applications directly into your portal. These intuitive developer tools increase productivity and speed development.

Increase IT agility

By supporting a wide range of infrastructures, Red Hat JBoss Portal Platform ensures your organization can quickly adapt to change.

The multiplatform (Red Hat Enterprise Linux®, SUSE, Microsoft Windows, Solaris) distribution offers flexibility for most environments. Your application developers may choose the frameworks and APIs that best fit their applications' needs without sacrificing stability, reliability, and management.

Due to flexible, service-based architecture, developers get a modular series of enterprise deployment features for clustering, caching, transactions, web services, security, and more, regardless of the selected programming model or deployment style used.

Simplied content management and administration

Customize your environment

Red Hat JBoss Portal Platform's intuitive user interface and administartion tools make it easier than ever to create, customize, and manage your self-service applications.

A simple, open framework, Red Hat JBoss Portal Platform provides a high degree of flexibility and configuration options—meeting the development and operational demands of the smallest tactical mashup-style application as well as the largest mission-critical websites.

Spend less time and effort keeping your portal up-to-date and relevant.
