IBM WebSphere Portal 8.5: User assistance for administrators
Portlet management
Manage the portlets and Web services that the site uses.
Managing Web modules
You can install new portlets from either a Web service or WAR file,
or you can manage existing portlets.
Managing portlet applications You can enable a portlet application as a Web service and manage existing
portlet applications. To view a list of portlets for a portlet application, select the
appropriate portlet application title. You can also modify the properties of the
portlet.
Managing portlets You can copy or delete a portlet, and change settings for a portlet.
You can manage settings for remote portlets, such as checking to see if a portlet is available
for adding to a page, or you can provide or withdraw a portlet as a WSRP
service.
Configuring your portal for Web services If you want to make remote portlets available to your portal users, you
can set up your portal for consuming Web Services for Remote Portlets (WSRP) and administer the
necessary Producer definitions.
Web application bridge
The web application bridge uses reverse proxy technology
to integrate web-based content providers, such as the Microsoft SharePoint
server, with IBM® WebSphere® Portal.
