Integration Capabilities of Enterprise Portals

by Brian J. Dooley

The movement toward e-business has involved a gradual evolution toward Web-enablement of all IT services and systems within the enterprise, integration of services, and centralization of access and management through a Web browser. This movement has coincided with advances in data analysis techniques to a point where diverse techniques applied to data stores might be deemed "business intelligence" (BI). At the same time, the external Internet environment developed a concept of presenting a wide variety of information and access links personalized to the user in a single Web page called a portal. It was natural that this concept should be applied within the enterprise and develop as a focus of evolving e-business strategies.
