Portlet Factory, Version 6.1.2

 

IBM WebSphere Portlet Factory overview

WebSphere Portlet Factory enables you to rapidly deliver dynamic, highly customizable and adaptive portlets to IBM® WebSphere Portal and widgets to IBM Lotus® Mashups and to IBM InfoSphere MashupHub.

With WebSphere Portlet Factory, you can quickly and easily create, re-purpose or assimilate web applications and web services into portlets and widgets. These portlets and widgets can be customized by users, administrators and developers, all within a protected and controllable framework. In addition, business users can change the various aspects (exposed through WebSphere Portlet Factory profiles) of the portlet and widget functionality in real time, such as presentation or business process.

WebSphere Portlet Factory web applications can exist as stand alone web applications, portlets, widgets, and web services without creating any additional code or requiring the duplication or branching of the current code base. By eliminating the need to code all these implementations and their variations, there is a significant reduction to the development, deployment and change management process. All portlets developed with WebSphere Portlet Factory utilize the IBM Portlet Adapter to integrate with WebSphere Portal. All widgets developed with WebSphere Portlet Factory utilize the IBM Widget Adapter to integrate with Lotus Mashups.
