Business portlets


Business portlets are automatically installed during the WebSphere Portal installation. We can place and display them on a page after you install and start the portal.

All business portlets provided with WebSphere Portal are under the following directory: PortalServer_root/bp . Most of the business portlets are also available on the IBM Lotus and WebSphere Portal Business Solutions Catalog at http://catalog.lotus.com/wps/portal/workplace.

IBM i: The following portlets are automatically installed after the portal is installed using the Install and Configure option of the remote GUI install.

IBM Syndicated Feed Portlet for WebSphere Portal

This portlet enables you to integrate, view, and manage RSS and ATOM feeds from the portal pages. We can organize the feeds into categories and extensively customize the presentation style for these feeds. The portlet is supported in a proxied environment and enables dynamic modification of the portlet window title. As an Administrator, we can configure several administrative settings from within the portlet interface and apply selective locks on a user's ability to customize the portlet.

The portlet complies with the OPML standards for subscription management and supports the export of feeds to an OPML compliant file and import of multiple feeds into the portlet from an OPML URL.
