Live Browser Access to the Repository
Portal makes it possible to grant web-based access to any aspect
of your Enterprise Architecture repository (documents, diagrams,
artifacts, metadata, relationships, and issues) from any location.
It provides cost-effective access for large numbers of business
users to view, search and report on live Enterprise Architecture
content held in the iServer repository.
Simple navigation and powerful search facilities guide business
people quickly and easily to the information they need. Issues,
comments, improvement suggestions, change requests and be raised
and allocated online for resolution by the information owners with
valuable architecture documentation and deliverables such as Gap
Analysis and Roadmap views generated from within the browser. By
making repository information more visible and accessible,
end-users are able to gain real business value from the EA content
being developed and can help contribute to its continual
development.
When to use Portal to Access Enterprise Architecture
Content
Portal is the ideal solution when your Enterprise Architecture
content is moving too fast to publish as a weekly or monthly
baseline, or is governed by lots of different people. Live access
to the Enterprise Architecture repository means that any
information being generated is immediately visible to users,
regardless of typcial publication constraints and timings.
Additionally, if users need highly complex or 'Amazon / Google'
style search facilities, or the organization has multiple browser
products in place, Portal will meet their needs.
