"We are still focused on providing everything necessary to
make a portal and also offering a framework for our clients to integrate their
applications, information and the rest of the actors in their business
processes", explained Eugenio García, GXPortal Project Manager.
More options: Oracle for
.NET
The .NET platform with ORACLE 9.2 or
higher as DBMS can be supported from this version, thus widening even further
our clients choice at the time of selecting a platform.
Product catalog
This new module facilitates the definition, presentation and
administration of products in the portal, offering the possibility of organizing
these products into sections and sub-sections, among other features.
More security
People who integrate their applications through GXportal can
concentrate in the development of their features, leaving to GXportal to manage
the access security of each application.
This version solves user authentication by using a
Repository to manage Portal security. The repository is a set of users, roles
and security policies whose properties can be setup to define the level of
security required by the portal.
Know about your visitors: statistics and
queries
GXportal enables knowing portal
user and visitor navigation patterns through queries to the portal access
statistics. This data is displayed in an Excel spreadsheet that can be formatted
by each client according to their interests.
More efficiency: Broken link report.
This process analyzes all portal links, internal, catalogued and external,
including images displayed in the portal. The process is executed silently
(batch), so the execution can be launched, the window closed and you can
continue working.
