History

Novell had purchased SilverStream in the summer of 2002.[1]

As of November 2003, exteNd was still a "work in progress" according to InfoWorld.[1]

Overview

The latest version was 5.2. With the release of Novell Identity Manager 3, the components of the portal services in exteNd were rebranded into the IDM User Application, a component of NetIQ Identity Manager.[citation needed]

The ExteNd platform provides a visual environment that simplifies the development and deployment of business solutions that exploit existing systems.[citation needed] Based on Java technology, it contains tools for integration of legacy systems to Web Services with XML and Java EE. Web Portal contains standard-based portlets.[citation needed]

  • The exteNd Application Server, which extends the SilverStream application server[1]
  • The exteNd Composer, a run-time engine and development suite[1]
  • The exteNd Director, which constructs and executes portals and web applications[1]
  • The exteNd Workbench, an IDE which Novell was in the process of merging with the exteNd Director.[1] The tool provides an intuitive GUI for deploying on J2EE.[2]
