In today’s competitive business environment, companies face increasing pressures to address customer demand, new market opportunities, and competitive threats more rapidly. To meet this need, they are aligning IT investments to enable scalable on-demand services. However, not all investments are providing originally expected returns. Moreover, rigid IT infrastructures continue to restrict business responsiveness and agility.

To simplify and standardize IT infrastructures, today’s businesses are deploying a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), an approach that uses service-oriented business modules that can be easily integrated, interchanged and re-used. With the advent of SOA, IT is now being viewed as a strategic component of the overall business strategy.

The Enterprise Business Integration Portal (www.enterprise-business-integration.de) is an initiative to pool vital information for the growing WebSphere Community. Until now, anyone looking for details on software functionality, case studies and experienced service partners had to spend many tedious hours sifting through countless websites.

Fortunately, this is no longer the case. The Enterprise Business Integration Portal provides a comprehensive overview of the entire IBM WebSphere portfolio, including detailed personal profiles of a number of leading portal professionals and selected cooperation partners. Using Plone technology, we’ve created a social network that centralizes valuable data and knowledge relevant to WebSphere services. To make searching for information easier for visitors, the site features user-friendly composite views of its content. A plan to include a common platform that will bring together service partners and customers for even the most advanced WebSphere services is currently in development.

A Vice President of IBM, had this to say about the Enterprise Business Integration Portal Consulting Portal:

“IBM and I wish to congratulate you for creating and going online with the Enterprise Business Integration Portal Portal. It truly is an “oasis” in the midst of the many WebSphere projects that, until now, required hours to search across the Internet for management overviews and case studies, as well as to access experienced people at service partners. We see your consulting portal as an excellent complement to IBM’s new Dashboard, Self-Service, Content, Collaboration, and Enterprise Suite Accelerators, which provide customers with interactive platforms for more effective and cost-efficient ways to access information, share ideas, communicate and work together. It is remarkable that you are able to pool all this much-needed data, knowledge and intelligence into a social network that provides such a complete and comprehensive overview of all aspects of the WebSphere product portfolio. Also, we are pleased that you have chosen to offer detailed personal profiles of leading portal professionals as well. This is a benefit that Project Managers are bound to appreciate greatly. We now look forward to the implementation of your plans to include a common platform for the WebSphere community that will bring together service partners and customers for even the most advanced WebSphere services. Keep up the good work!”
