Portal Development
A-1 Technology can develop and deploy Intranet web-sites and portals. The portals can be in any domain area. A portal is a web site that acts as a single source for all information on a
specific vertical domain. Basically, in most of the cases, the
"vertical domain” aspect gives a web site the name of a “Portal”.
We will also design and conceptualize the portal (web site), its theme, format, presentation, content presentation, graphics, etc. Graphic designers will get involved during this stage.
A-1 Technology also has a set of components to quickly develop and deploy the portal (web site). For the portal (web site) to be put in place, we will need to implement facilities like registration services, personalization services, advertisement and promotional services, build-your-own-site facilities, business analysis and reporting facilities, content management, administration and value-added services like chat, email, news, message boards, greeting cards, polls and quizzes. Components to do all of these are readily available. Hence, a solution can be put together in a matter of weeks.
The portals (web site) can be of two types – B2B and B2C. The B2B portals are used by business houses and B2C portals are used by Internet users. Some types of B2B portals are Digital Market Places, e-markets, etc.
Technology
The portal (web site) can be implemented in any of the current technologies. A-1 Technology can develop the portal (web site) either in the Linux, Java or Microsoft based technologies. Under Java based technologies, we could implement the solutions in the form of Enterprise Java Beans (EJBs), servlets, etc. Under the Microsoft based technologies, we can implement the solution in VB.NET, COM/DCOM, MTS, etc. In Linux the solution would consist of the application developed using PHP and MySQL. A-1 Technology also has very strong expertise developing portal using solutions such as Microsoft Sharepoint.
