Abstract:
It is tempting - and in many case appropriate - to tightly control the ability to make changes to your production portal. However, the transition to more agile business practices is leading business owners to demand increasingly rapid turnaround on updates. Fortunately, WebSphere Portal offers a number of powerful features (like Managed Pages and the Script Portlet) to allow authorised non-administrators (and non-developers) to modify the portal. And when there is no out-of-the-box user interface for a requested function, there are always APIs with which you can create one. Come along to this session to discover the pros and cons of allowing business users to control different aspects of the portal, along with tips and techniques to make this control possible.
