Assemble composite applications
A composite application is a collection of components that address a business need for a particular group of users. The collection of business components provides predefined meta-data and content that supports integrated business capabilities for personal and team productivity. The integration of information from multiple business components provides application users with content specifically geared to their business roles and tasks.
For example, the business components in a composite application might include a people finder, a document library, a project team room, and personal information management components such as mail, calendar, and address book. Assembled from templates and deployed using services such as personalization, collaboration and search, composite applications can be reused and customized for flexible quick start to projects without reliance on administrator support.
Application templates are intended for personnel in a business unit of the enterprise who understand the business model and business processes. Application templates promote the rapid assembly and reuse of composite applications. Business analysts and application designers can create and manage templates for composite applications. Application managers and business users can create composite applications from templates and, when appropriate, save new applications as templates for reuse by other users.
