PORTAL SOLUTIONS In an era of globalization, businesses are facing the challenges of reducing costs and increasing efficiency. This means, your business needs new forms of process organization, collaboration and information management. To this end, most companies already possess a high number of applications. However, they rarely form a harmonic overall picture. The results are cost and time consuming attempts to coordinate and organize. Web based enterprise portals like Liferay are a simple solution for these problems. Portals provide a central access point for all relevant applications, information and processes. Portals integrate these three things inside your business as well as the interactions with your partners, customers and suppliers. In this way, applications, services and business processes are combined in a single platform. With the help of web technologies, these platforms fasten and structure the complex interaction processes between your employees, customers and partners. Flexibility, transparency, efficiency - these are the expectations concerning the introduction of a service-oriented architecture (SOA). However, standard compliance is a key factor for a robust and performant SOA. Establishing SOA with open source portal frameworks helps you to reuse your investments by using the standardized technologies of a portal, e.g. an Enterprise Service Bus for standardized integration with web services (WSRP). KCK Software develops professional portal solutions for your business. Depending on your specific needs, we adopt open source (Liferay, JBoss) or proprietary (i.e. IBM WebSphere, SAP, WebLogic, Oracle and Microsoft Sharepoint) portal frameworks.
