Nearly lost in the hectic shuffle of a significant deal between Yahoo! Inc.
and Sony Corp.
, was the announcement that the portal giant Tuesday
upgraded its corporate portal
solution.
While most industry watchers or investors were perking up to Yahoo!'s and
Sony's co-branded content and communications tools agreement, the popular
portal and media company also quietly integrated enterprise applications,
enhanced management of user groups and deepened adoption of open standards
for its chief intranet solution, Corporate Yahoo!.
The software is called PortalBuilder 3.0. and it is geared to run behind
the corporate firewall to allow IT departments to deploy portals that
aggregate corporate resources within a flexible interface. As is the design
of most intranet solutions, this standardization on a content delivery
platform, Yahoo! hopes, will yield increased productivity and reduced costs
throughout the enterprise that uses it.
