Building XML Portals with Cocoon
Matthew Langham, S&N AG

Track: XML
Date: Friday, July 26
Time: 11:30am - 12:15pm
Location: Marina VI
Based on the recently donated portal and authentication components, this talk shows how the XML publishing platform can be used to build Inter- and Intranet portals. The authentication components allow users to be authenticated against systems such as a database or an XML file. The portal components allow XML based portals to be designed that incorporate external data using the concept of sunlets. The components are completely integrated into the extendible Cocoon architecture and were originally developed as part of a commercial product, based on Cocoon. This talk also gives some background on how an Open Source project can form the base for a successful commercial offering.
