Portals

Portals are usually high traffic, high volume sites. The traffic patterns to portals can exhibit very high surges and plateaus. It is vital for portals to be able to scale and meet these traffic volumes and competitively offer additional services.

Building a portal involves integrating diverse services to be delivered via a uniform front end to the user. These services are in turn delivered by multiple applications. Some of these are made in-house, some bought and some outsourced to online service providers.

We often face the challenge of having to integrate sets of applications that are not really designed to work together. The success of a portal also lies in its adaptability. These are the ability to add or modify services and customise existing services based on user feedback.
