Best portal book

Best book for learning WebSphere portal (and I have them all). The redbook is also useful but this book is the first one you should read.

Excellent resource for new and experienced portal teams

Anyone who is involved with WebSphere Portal should have this book on their shelf. This book covers a broad spectrum of portal topics that make it valuable when researching a problem or designing a portal solution. If you are just starting out with portal you may want to skim one or two of the chapters (such as chapter 5) which is relevant in theory but may not be accurate for the latest released versions of the software. Many of the other chapters are right on, covering topics such as JSR 168 and WSRP which are continuing to grow both in capability and interest. Enjoy!

This is a must-have for WebSphere Portal teams

This book is packed full of clear and concise definitions of how WebSphere Portal works, along with step-by-step tutorials that fianlly put everything in one place. If you need to install, configure, design, develop, debug, troubleshoot and rollout a Portal 5.0.2 environment, this is an essential tool. My personal book is annotated, dog-eared and full of sticky notes, and has proven an invluable asset.

An excellent source of information

A extremely useful resource for getting started with Websphere Portal!

Might well be the best WebSphere Portal book out there...

WebSphere Portal (WP) is becoming a major technology, but there's still not a lot of books out there to help you understand and implement it. I had a chance to review Wiley's Mastering IBM WebSphere Portal by Ron Ben-Natan, Richard Gornitsky, Tim Hanis, and Ori Sasson. Having done some work with Portal, I can say I wish I had this book a lot sooner. It would have saved me some headaches. The chapter breakdown: Introducing WP; Installing WP on Windows 2000 Server; Installing WP on Linux; Customizing WP; Installing WP Tools and Problem Analysis; Migrating to WP Version 5.0; Defining Portals and Pages; Tailoring the Portal Web Design; WP Personalization; Portal Administration; Document and Content Management within WP; Adding Collaboration and Search Components to Your Portals; Extending Portal Functionality: Portlets; Portlet Programming Model and API; WebSphere Portlet Development Environment; Portlet Development; Portlet Interactive Debug and JSR 168 Example; Struts Portlet Framework; Implementing Authentication for Large Enterprises; Integrating Security and Identity Management Tools with WP; Designing High Availability into Your Portal Server; WP Support for Web Services and Remote Portlets; Integrating External Applications with WP; Supporting Mobile Users; Index As you can see from the list of chapters, there's a lot of information that spans many different roles. There's the administration processes, the development processes, security processes, and architecture. Regardless of what part of WP you are dealing with, you'll find something of interest in here. The authors are well-versed and experienced in WP developement and implementation, so it's not a rehash of "here's what the instructions tell you to do". Plenty of illustrations and code samples will help you quickly get to where you need to be. From a development perspective (since that's my area of expertise), I appreciated the different looks at portlet development. I know that Struts is becoming a de facto standard, but it's hard to find information on how to integrate that into a portlet program. They cover that here. They also cover the differences between the WP API and the JSR 168 standards for development, which is very nice. Basically, it's one of the most up-to-date books on WP that is currently on the market, and between it and the IBM redbooks you should be able to come up with a successful portal implementation.
