Project WebSynergy Milestone 4 Administration Guide

Virtual Hosting of Portlet Pages

WebSynergy supports virtual hosting of Communities and Organizations. Public and Private pages in a Community or an Organization have a unique common friendly URL. You have to provide separate host names for public and private pages for virtual hosting of public and private pages on separate machines. In the below example, we consider a simple use case of virtual hosting on the same machine by providing a convenient friendly URL.
