eXo Webinar: How to Add Social Publishing to Portal-Based Applications

Monday, June 28th, 2010

GateIn, the open source portal framework developed by eXo and Red Hat, provides a foundation for developers to build and deploy portal-based applications. By adding Web Content Management (WCM) functionality and gadgets, these applications can be extended to allow end users to create and publish their own content, without having to know the inner workings of the portal infrastructure.

Developers can easily gain these capabilities with eXo WCM, which is tuned and optimized for the GateIn portal framework. Together, eXo WCM and GateIn can be used as a platform for integrating applications as well as managing and publishing content – all from a single, familiar console.

Join Benjamin Paillereau, product manager of eXo WCM, as he demonstrates how to get native WCM features inside GateIn. Sample use case scenarios and a live demo will also be provided.

Through the presentation and demo, attendees will learn:

  • How to set up a workflow process for getting content created, edited, approved and published
  • How to customize this workflow for the unique needs of the content author, the publisher and the site visitor
  • How to create a simple portlet to take advantage of extended publication features
  • How to extend the publication process with UIExtension Framework
  • How to use REST services to add authoring to a personal dashboard

Webinar: How to Build a Multi-Tenancy Online Development Platform in Java

Thursday, April 8th, 2010

The talk that Benjamin gave at the local Java SIG this week was so well-received, we decided to host an encore version as a webinar on 22 April, at 9am PT / 12pm ET / 5pm GMT.  Benjamin will demonstrate how the eXo Platform can be used as an online Java development platform to create public and private clouds.  He will walk through the different technologies that eXo leverages, such as the GateIn open source portal framework, JAX-RS, Groovy and OpenSocial Gadgets.  Specifically, attendees will learn how to:

  • use a JCR data store to model a cloud tenant
  • store and dynamically deploy JAX-RS services written in Groovy
  • store and dynamically deploy OpenSocial Gadgets that connect to previously online-created REST APIs
  • remotely expose those Gadgets to the public cloud

eXo Webinar March 24: Intro to Chromattic and CRaSH, Tools in the GateIn Portal Framework

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

Even though we had some big news today about our VC funding, it’s business-as-usual here at eXo.  We’re busy getting ready for the launch of the open source portal framework, GateIn, that we’ve been collaborating on with Red Hat.  Julien Viet, the lead developer for eXo’s effort on GateIn, will be giving an “under the hood” look at some of GateIn’s core technology in a one-hour webinar on 24 March.

The webinar, called “Technical Deep Dive: Understanding Advanced Persistence and Querying with Chromattic and CRaSH, Tools in the GateIn Portal Framework” will take place on 24 March, 2010, at 9am PT / 12pm ET / 5pm GMT.  The key concepts of Chromattic & CRaSH will be presented, as Julien walks through the development of a simple Chromattic application in real-time. This sample application will be made available to the attendees so they can use the sample code as a starting point. This advanced technical session will show:

  • How to integrate Chromattic with a modern IDE using a Maven-based build
  • How to deploy and connect to a CRaSH shell
  • How to create a custom CRaSH command
  • Several advanced features of Chromattic will be highlighted, to demonstrate the power of the framework

Attendees will also have the opportunity to interact with and ask questions of Julien and other eXo core developers.

Integrating a CMIS Server with Zoho Using the GateIn Portal

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

Last week we hosted a webinar to introduce the xCMIS, the new CMIS implementation from eXo.  During the webinar, Jeremi showed a live demo of xCMIS accessing and editing Zoho docs.  He has already converted this into a helpful step-by-step guide with screenshots.  But, if you missed the webinar, you can now check out a video of the demo as well:
