Architecture and planning
Chapter 2.
IBM understands and recognizes that many customers need to make important decisions
about their WebSphere Portal Server solution, both prior to and during a deployment.
With intimate knowledge of the challenges and pitfalls that go hand in hand with managing
many large scale WebSphere Portal deployments, this chapter sets out to provide the reader
with an informed approach to planning, architecting, and implementing a successful Portal
deployment.
Although this chapter is written with a bias towards enterprise scale WebSphere Portal Server
deployments, the principles nevertheless remain applicable to smaller deployments.
