Business Challenge

Accelerate the time-to-market for portal development and management. Using the existing Microsoft-based content management solution, portals were taking longer and longer to develop, with the associated danger of development costs over-running.

Solution

Deployed BEA WebLogic Portal and the out-of-the-box portlets of Componence to underpin the development, launch and ongoing management of a distributed network of approximately 100 media portals which integrate content, applications, and business processes. Unified portal framework provided flexibility and an industrial strength foundation for all portal management.

Results

Enabled Reed Business NL to assemble, configure, and deploy portals more simply and quickly-this will allow the company to develop portals 50 percent more quickly than before and reduce portal development costs by 50 percent. Effective search functionality provides visitors with seamless search capabilities, with Meta data search of the virtual content repository.
