Intelligent pages
Intelligent pages are analytics, content authoring, and
management enhancements to the portal page architecture. You can reach
more site visitors through mobile themes, targeted content, and easier
content authoring, and then analyze how effective your site is. New
web analytics page overlay reports show you how effective your site
is inline.
Search optimization
WebSphere Portal provides new ways to help you optimize
search results.
IBM Installation Manager
WebSphere Portal Version 8.0 offers the easy to use IBM
Installation Manager user interface. Installation Manager is a single
installation program that can use remote or local software flat-file
repositories to install, modify, or update new WebSphere Portal products.
It determines and shows available packages, including products, fix
packs, interim fixes, and other updates. It checks prerequisites and
interdependencies, and installs the selected packages. You also use
the Installation Manager to easily uninstall the packages that it
installed.
Configuration wizard for administrators
The configuration wizard provides an effective method to
streamline configuration tasks. Access the new configuration wizard
from the Integrated Solutions Console. It provides a user interface
instead of directly editing properties files. It also provides a web-based
user interface for running ConfigEngine tasks.
