IBM Connections is social software for
business. It empowers business professionals to develop, nurture, and remain in
contact with a network of their colleagues; respond quickly to business
opportunities by calling upon the expertise in their network; and discuss and
refine new creative ideas with communities of coworkers, partners, and
customers.
IBM Connections has
the following components:
Home page: See what’s happening in your social network
through a consolidated, customizable overview of it.
Blogs: Gather
and prioritize community ideas, present your own ideas, and learn from others.
Communities: Exchange
and share information with others through a web browser, IBM Sametime, or email
software.
Social Everywhere: Connect
to your social networks at anytime and from anywhere using a wide range of
devices and applications.
Files: Post,
share, and discover documents, presentations, images, and more.
Social: Stay
current with updates from across your social network through the home page,
microblogs, and tags.
Profiles: Find
the people you need by searching across your organization using tags to
identify expertise, current projects, and responsibilities.
Wikis: Create
web content together, edit, and publish it in a convenient location with access
that you manage.
Social Analytics: Work
with people who share common interests and expertise and expand your social
network with widgets.
Activities: Organize your
work, plan your next steps, tap your professional network, and gather
information to meet business objectives.
Bookmarks: Save,
share, and discover bookmarks through this social bookmarking service.
Forums: Exchange
ideas with, and benefit from the expertise of others.
The IBM Connections components are built on
a set of services according to the service-oriented
architecture concept.
These components take the form
of J2EE applications which are hosted on IBM WebSphere
Application Server. This design allows the components to be hosted
independently of each other and to support very large scale deployments.
