An enterprise portal, also known as an enterprise information portal (EIP), is a
framework for integrating information, people and processes across organizational
boundaries.
It provides a single point of entry, often in the form of a web-based
user interface, and is designed to aggregate information through application-specific
portlets.

Basic Features |
|
Single Point of Entry — enterprise portals can provide single sign-on
capabilities between their users and various other systems. This requires a user
to authenticate only once. Access control lists manage the mapping between portal
content and services over the portal user base.
Integration — the connection of
functions and data from multiple systems into new components/portlets.
Federation
— the integration of content provided by other portals, typically through the use
of WSRP or similar technologies.
Personalization — Users can customize the look
and feel of their environment.Customers who are using EIPs can edit and design their
own web sites which are full of their own personality and own style; they can also
choose the specific content and services they prefer.
Permissioning — the ability
for portal administrators to limit specific types of content and services users
have access to. For example, a company's proprietary information can be entitled
for only company employee access
