Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

The market for portals as a separate technology offering will evaporate in 2005. However, their popularity as a user interface will continue. Portal products will split into their component pieces as firms build out their infrastructure to support portal apps and apply them to solving specific, but narrow business problems. Their dual use as infrastructure and as collaborative middleware will continue until 2006 when packaged composite apps emerge and drive context to the forefront with a new generation of operational apps focused on ad hoc, user-centric processes.
