The case for WSRP

Added By Janus Boye at 8-Feb-2006 |

Summed up in a nice, detailed blog entry by Mike Fitzmaurice. He is a Sharepoint developer evangelist who concedes that Microsoft has traditionally not been "especially eager to promote WSRP." WSRP (Web Services for Remote Portlets) is a standard for access and display of portlets hosted on a remote server. The idea is to have a standard way to integrate portlets running on different machines (including different portals), internally or externally. While many vendors are claiming WSRP support, few enterprises have embraced it fully, and many are still running quite self-contained portals.
