Red Hat's JBoss Offers Simple, Open SOA

JBoss Portal 2.6 Offers Advanced Personalization

- Content Management System (CMS) Workflow

JBoss jBPM provides content management approval workflow in a configurable process that enables or disables this role-based approval capability. Additional Web Services for Remote Portlets (WSRP) Support - WSRP support offers expanded functionality beyond the basic producer and consumer profiles. We’ve added implicit cloning capability to both the producer and consumer. The advanced WSRP profiles are also supported in JBoss Portal 2.6.

- Identity

Until JBoss 2.6, developers had to write customer JAAS modules to integrate with LDAP. With JBoss 2.6 developers have pre-built integration with LDAP server. Supported servers include Red Hat Directory Server, OpenDS and OpenLDAP. Portal 2.6 not only provides LDAP integration but an overall simplified architecture for your enterprise directories.

- Google Gadgets

Google Gadgets are mini-applications that work with the Google homepage, Google Desktop or any page on the web. They can range from simple HTML to complex applications, and can be a calendar, a weather globe, a media player. It is simple to write new custom gadgets. JBoss Portal 2.6 provides a simplified way to drop any of these pre-built gadgets as portlets.

We’re excited about the possibilities for customers and users to improve user experiences with JBoss Portal 2.6. In particular, the personalization, usability, identity and WSRP enhancements take JBoss Portal to a new level that was driven by our customers and community for their own use. Check out JBoss Portal and create better user experiences for you and your users today.
