The Sun Java System Portal Server 7.1 is a component of the Sun Java Platform, Enterprise Edition, a software system that supports a wide range of enterprise computing needs.

Portal Server allows administrators and delegated administrators to build portal pages and to make them available to individuals throughout an enterprise according to user identities.

Portal Server's core framework supports the Java Specification Request (JSR) 168 Portlet Specification standard and the web services for remote portlets (WSRP) 1.0 standard for portal content. Portlet developers can use the Sun Java Studio Creator 2 application development tool or open standard tools to build portlets. Portal administrators can then leverage portlets, WSRP consumers, or additional portal tools for adding content to portal pages.

Portal Server provides a framework and a set of software modules that offer the following:

  • Security
  • Mobility
  • Identity-based content delivery
  • Collaboration
  • Business system integration

OpenPortal

At JavaOne in 2007, the Sun Java System Portal Server team announced the renaming of the portal open source community. It’s now called the OpenPortal Community.
