Portals provide users with a single point of access to multiple
types of information and applications through a Web interface. IBM
WebSphere Portal for Multiplatforms is one of the industries’
most comprehensive portal offerings. It contains a wide range of
portal technologies that help you develop and maintain B2C, B2B,

technology.
DB2 Information Integrator provides federated data access to a
diverse range of heterogeneous data sources including relational
data sources such as the DB2 family, Oracle, SQL Server, and
Teradata, and semi-structured data from WebSphere MQ messages, XML
documents, Web services, Microsoft Excel, flat files, ODBC or OLE
DB sources, plus a variety of formats unique to the life sciences
industry. It also provides integrated support for Lotus Extended
Search, which enables broad content access to a variety of content
