What is WebSphere?
WebSphere is Internet infrastructure software known as middleware. It enables companies to develop, deploy and integrate next-generation e-business applications, such as those for business-to-business e-commerce, and supports business applications from simple Web publishing through enterprise-scale transaction processing.
WebSphere transforms the way businesses manage customer, partner, and employee relationships. For example, you can use it to create a compelling Web experience that improves the quality and quantity of site traffic, extend applications to incorporate mobile devices so the sales force can service clients faster, or build an electronic e-marketplace to lower sourcing costs.
The foundation of the platform is the WebSphere Application Server, available in three editions, with specialized configurations designed to meet your most critical business needs. A single Java™ engine powers them all, so you can easily port your applications across editions when your needs change:
- Standard Edition: Quickly transforms static Web sites into vital sources of Web content by using servlets, JavaServer Pages, and XML.
- Advanced Edition: Includes a high performance Enterprise Java Bean component server.
- Enterprise Edition: Builds highly transactional, high-volume e-business applications, integrating EJB and CORBA technologies.

Now you can create “Portlet” windows on your screen to bring in data from the web or the back end systems.
For example, you can create a CRM screen with your to-do list in one window, the company stock price in another, receivables in a third, sales orders in a fourth screen, the weather in another, and production data in a final section, all on one PC or laptop screen!
Talk about knowing what is going on in your organization! The sky’s the limit!
Also control who sees what information by user name/password, department, territory, etc.
