6. What Is a Portal?
At the most basic level, a portal is a web site targeted at a specific audience that provides:
Content aggregation and delivery of information relevant to the audience
Collaboration and community services
Services and applications access for the target audience, delivered in a highly personalized manner

7. So Why Portals? Legacy systems contain most information
Novell BrainShare 2002
So Why Portals?
Legacy systems contain most information
41% of Global 3500 expect to integrate 7 or more systems into their portal (Forrester, August 2001)
34% of CEOs expect to rewrite a mainframe application in the next year (MSDW, August 2001)
Portals all over the place
Employee-focused inside/outside the firewall
Customer-focused
Partner-focused
Knowledge management a top issue
Employee portals are in the top 16 projects which are likely to see the biggest increase in spending in 2H01, along with document management and business intelligence tools (MSDW, August 2001)
$1,000,000 = Median portal project spend (software and services) (Forrester, August 2001)
CEOs Rewriting Mainframe
Applications Next Year
(MSDW, August 2001)

Do You Need a Portal?
META Group estimates that 85 percent of the Global 2000 companies will deploy (or will be in the process of deploying) an enterprise portal by 2003
Does this sound like you?
Are your knowledge workers drowning in information? Can they easily access the information they need from anywhere on the Internet?
Do your employees struggle to collaborate with each other and share information?
Do you want to reduce the barriers to working closely with customers and partners?
Is it difficult to set up and manage trusted business relationships across a diverse network of operating systems?
Do they need to integrate structured and unstructured data into their business processes and tailor it to individual users?
