This portal is aimed to provide an easy and efficient way for DCSians from all over the world to stay in touch with each other and with the department. Instead of hunting the web for information, a person identifies himself to the portal, and the portal brings all relevant information to the person.
Use a single consistent web-based front end to present information from a variety of back-end data sources. Information about people is stored in many different databases at a University. This includes student information, course information, alumni information, calendaring and scheduling software, job provisioning portal, announcement interface, and so on. The role of a portal is to put a consistent "face" to this information so that visitors don't have to deal with dozens of different web interfaces to get their information.
