Oracle10g AS Build Corporate Portals

Web-based publishing of information is seen as the best way in which to disseminate dynamic information and content, whether this is to be sent publicly over the worldwide web or over a secure private network to authenticated users. A portal to this content is the primary means by which this information is deployed and accessed. Furthermore, portals are seen as a means to fuse together dissimilar environments, systems and applications into a single cohesive user interface.

This course contains an exhaustive step-by-step explanation of the features and capabilities for web-based publishing and application interface using the Oracle Portal product, which is built upon the Oracle10g Application Server platform.

Within this course the following major subjects will be discussed:

• An overview of the Portal architecture, including installation procedures and platform requirements.
• Creating quick and simple portal applications using Oracle Instant Portal.
• Creating customized and highly complex portal applications using Portal Builder and include a variety of rich, dynamic and web-based content within those applications.
• Extending the built-in features of Portal and the Portal Builder to customize both the environment and the type of content deployed.
• Using sophisticated content management features which support large scale collaboration among many users, including content classification, approval routings and shared objects.
• Using high-powered portlets within the portlet repository to obtain content from existing web sites, HTML pages, databases, external and other sources.
• Controlling content appearance and layout using pages, regions, styles and templates.
• Exercising strict control over the access and management of content using privileges and access control lists.
• Implementing search features within portal applications
