IBM Connections Portlets for WebSphere Portal for a Connections Cloud deployment

Bring the power of IBM® Connections to your portal applications.

Installing this package makes the following portlets available to your portal users:

  • Activities – Collaboration tool for collecting, organizing, sharing, and reusing work related to a project goal.
  • Blogs – Online journals you can use to deliver timely information with a personal touch.
  • Bookmarks – Social bookmarking tool that you can use to save, organize, and share Internet and intranet bookmarks.
  • Tags – Meaningful keywords you can use to find associated content.
  • Profiles – Directory of colleagues you can use to build a network and locate expertise.
  • Wikis – Repository for sharing and collaborating on pages of interest to your group.
  • Forums – View and contribute to discussion topics.
  • Community Overview – View basic community information like the description, tags, and community owners. Perform basic community actions from the portlet.
  • Blogs Summary – Choose a view to see a snapshot of recent, latest, or featured blog activity
  • Profiles Summary – View a summary of information about your colleagues.
  • Forums Summary – View a list of forums that you can access.
  • Bookmarks Summary – View a list of bookmarks you can access.

You can also deploy community pages, which are portal pages associated with communities from IBM Connections communities. Portlets on community pages are automatically scoped to the community membership and display content from the community in the portlets. For example, if your community contains a forum, adding the forum portlet to a community page lets portal users view and interact with the forum content from a Portal application.
