State Information and High Availability

The JSF application embedded in a JSF portlet can view all user interactions with the portal page that are outside the user interface for the JSF portlet itself as if they were page reloads. The JSF Portlet maintains whatever state information is needed by the JSF application as other pages are selected or while the user interacts with the portal in other ways. The JSF portlet leverages the portlet container HTTP session failover capabilities to enable highly available JSF applications within portlets.
