摘要:
A portal server presents an HTML page that comprises a plurality of modules that are formatted in a predetermined layout. Each module represents a network resource that can be accessed by a user through the portal. Some of the modules can be user-selectable, whereas others may be mandatory elements of the portal. Similarly, some aspects of the layout may be user-controllable, while others are fixed. The modular nature of the portal enables the various resources to be readily and independently updated by the entities who provide them, without affecting other features of the portal. The portal server includes an administration interface that enables an administrator to select from various layout styles, as well as control access to site information and services. A variety of customizations can be done to the portal without requiring programming skills. As a result, individual businesses and other entities can exercise complete ownership of their portals, from a hosting, branding and design perspective.
摘要:
The present invention is a method for providing Remote Portal Services (RPS). RPS is a system for easily and quickly incorporating remote applications (RPS Services) into a portal. RPS Services may be enabled making the RPS Service available for incorporation onto a server implementing a portal. Enabled RPS Services may be disabled discontinuing the availability of the RPS Service for incorporation onto a server implementing a portal. RPS Services may be incorporated onto and removed from a server implementing a portal server. RPS Services may be added to and removed from a portal implemented on a server. RPS Services are exposed in the portal as modules, without installing, on the server implementing the portal, any software specific to a RPS Service. Enabled RPS Services may be listed on a directory that may be searched and browsed. The present invention may protect the exposure of data stored on servers during communication between servers.

Graphical user interfaces are provided for administrators to perform administration type operations. Sets of users granted administrative privileges may further grant and delegate administrative privileges to other sets of users to perform administration type operations on site objects over which they have administrative privileges. The types of graphical user interfaces includes server consoles and site consoles. Server consoles enable the performance of administration on all objects within the framework. Site consoles enable the performance of administration within a respective site.
摘要:
The sharing of objects may be executed by performing various share type administrations. Objects may be shared directly to a site or may be made available indirectly for reuse by a site. The objects shared and made available for reuse may be added to the site to which they are shared and made available for reuse. References to the objects shared and made available for reuse are stored in repositories in response to, and in accordance with, the share type administration performed. The storage of the references to objects is based on privileges associated with at least one of a repository, a site and a user. Objects made available for reuse by, and shared to, a site may be made unavailable for reuse by, and unshared to, the site through the execution of a share type administration.
