• All the complexity and cleverness is totally hidden from the user and the portal acts and presents a unified search and results presentation to the user and behind the scenes automatically works out the sources by which the information is sourced depending on the type and authentications of the user using the service. A highly intuitive, simple, powerful and totally flexible tool for knowledge access. The architecture and tools chosen for this project provide highest levels scalability and integration based on open standards.
