Enterprise Portal For Linux SAN MATEO, Calif., March 28, 2000 - Viador Inc., the number one enterprise portal company, today announced it has made the Viador E-Portal Suite available on the Linux operating system, which is the industry's fastest growing E-Business server platform. This announcement combines the increasingly popular Linux operating system with Viador's scalable enterprise portal software. Viador's E-Portal Suite on Linux is a powerful alternative for organizations that need a high performance, platform independent enterprise portal to speed their E-Business solutions to market. The addition of Linux further extends Viador's broad platform support that already spans Windows NT, Windows 2000, Sun Solaris, HP-UX, IBM AIX, and mainframe servers. Linux has become the world's second most-popular server operating system, representing 25 percent of units shipped, compared with Windows NT's 38 percent, according to International Data Corporation. Linux's popularity has been driven largely by solutions created with programming intensive development efforts utilizing traditional web development tools to deliver applications and information to users over the Internet. These initiatives required programmers to manually integrate all applications and information sources into the solution and webmasters to maintain the currency of information. Viador's enterprise portal enables the rapid creation and deployment of E-Business solutions that offer robust business functionality, bringing Linux even closer to the mainstream business adoption of major UNIX suppliers. Viador's enterprise portal, which is based on the Viador E-Portal Frameworkä, serves as the foundation upon which Global 1000, emerging Internet companies, ISVs, ASPs and system integrators are deploying a wide variety of E-Business applications including: Business-to-Business (B2B) portals for partner relationship management or B2B marketplaces, and Business-to-Employee (B2E) portals to support customer relationship management or E-Business intelligence solutions. Viador eliminates much of the manual programming by providing an environment to easily integrate application components and information sources into a single, personalized user interface. Viador also includes a rich set of integrated services including security, E-Business intelligence, search, document sharing, personalization, and navigation that enable the rapid creation of custom branded E-Business solutions. As a result, Viador provides a scalable, customizable delivery vehicle for deploying E-Business solutions in a faster and more cost-effective way. | ||||||
