Hi Nainesh,

The IT scenario provides all members of a company’s value chain—employees, customers, partners, and suppliers—with uniform, role-based, and secure access to their day-to-day work and information resources through a Web-based portal interface. These resources include SAP applications, third-party applications, databases, data warehouses, desktop documents, Web content, and services. The portal makes it possible to search internal and external sources, and to access both structured and unstructured information from any geographical location throughout the organization.

Using the role-based user interface of SAP NetWeaver Portal, a company can use modular building blocks to dynamically structure its business processes and deliver business content tailored to the needs of specific user groups. SAP customers can speed up their portal implementation by leveraging a wide range of predefined role-specific business packages suitable for a variety of industries and user roles.

The security features integrated into the portal include authentication, single sign-on (SSO), and authorization capabilities. Business users only require a standard browser on their desktop, without the need for additional software components.

Please follow this [link|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/0f/e06e424925c253e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm]

i hope this will resolve all your queries..

Regards,

Piyush

hey nainesh

the biggest advantage of using a portl is that u can use multiple jsp pages at a time.

u can have separate ivews and each ivew itself can be a web page or a jsp page which can interact with the j2ee server hence u can have multiple work done on the same page .

other then this there are lots more advantages of using portal ...

they are : 1) can be used for platform independent application.

2) u can execute implement it for maintaing various application such as microsoft outlook etc

igoogle is a nice example of portal application.

*if useful please reward.

SAP Enterprise Portal (EP) offers users role-specific, Web-based and secure access to all relevant information, applications and services. Employees only need a desktop and a Web Browser, and can begin work once they have been authenticated in the portal. SAP Enterprise Portal contains the NetWeaver components Portal, Knowledge Management, and Collaboration. In addition, SAP provides predefined content. At the moment the portfolio contains more than 100 business packages, which are shipped in multiple languages.

The Portal is used for different purposes.

  • Internationalization

  • Personalization

  • Integration

  • Authorization
