Hi, I'm new to WSRP. The purpose made me interested in WSRP is that i am
developing a portlet that will get deployed on WebSphere portal server. Since
the license of WebSphere portal is expensive i would try to deploy the portlet
on a cheap or maybe free web application, and then expose my portlet as WSRP
for my WebSphere portal server. That way the logic that consume recourses would
not be on WebSphere portal that has an expensive license.I would like some one
to confirm these tiny questions before i spend much time on doing it. Based on
my reading so far it seems that i do need portals on both sides, Producer, as
well as Consumer! is that right? WSRP producer and WSRP consumer seems to be
built-in in portals. so I wonder if i can deploy my portlet on say tomcat, and
that tomcat has producer, so i can publish my portlet as WSRP using that
producer. since WSRP is a webservice, so if i have to use portals on both
sides, i can deploy my portlet on say Gridsphere using tomcat and then publish
it as WSRP and then consume it from the WebSphere portal server. It seems that
the portal server that hosts the portlet should also be exposed for end-user
interactions since WSRP only manage markup fragments (html my case), but
usually downloads and not done throw portal! Could u please answer my 4
concerns i mentioned above? thanks in advanceRidwan
