Plano, TX (PRWEB) August 24, 2010
Crossvale, Inc. (http://www.crossvale.com), a leading provider of tailored integration, automation and portal solutions, announces President Jason Sharp will speak on multi-departmental authoring in Drupal at OpenCamp 2010, Aug. 27-29. OpenCamp is the Southwests first multi-platform web conference, combining Drupal, WordPress, Joomla, .NET, social media, and SEO expertise.
Jason Sharp, co-founder and president of Crossvale, Inc. will present Multi-Departmental Authoring in Drupal, beginning at 2:30 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 29. This intermediate-level presentation offers an effective and scalable solution to a common need for large enterprises as requested on drupal.org forums: authorizing multiple groups of authors to control subsections of a multi-departmental site. The session will illustrate how authors of the same department can edit, review and publish the same subset of content without overstepping content from a different department. Sharp, an Oracle ACE and founding BEA Technical Director, has introduced innovations such as: SOA, enterprise portals, BPM, business-to-business integration, and EAI to major comanies worldwide.
We have had the opportunity to design and deploy private enterprise portals since 2003, refining best practices and expertise for the special cases of these portals, said Sharp. Intranet portals for large corporations and institutions involve a slew of security policies, collaboration scenarios, content types, and legacy system integrations not typically applicable to external websites focused on public access. It is a privilege to speak at OpenCamp this year and present some of our Drupal techniques based on a comprehensive case study.
The presentation content will highlight a rich Drupal 6 case study in which an intranet portal serving 5000 employees for a national media company headquartered in North Texas required support for authoring content across its 14 departments. Attendees will walk away with specific knowledge about key Drupal modules and best practices for supporting multiple non-technical authors of large Drupal deployments.
As previously announced, Crossvale is also a platinum sponsor of OpenCamp. The Company has championed the use of open source technologies since their inception in 2001. Crossvale CEO Conor Brankin stated, Our sponsorship is a tremendous opportunity for Crossvale to give back to the open source community.
OpenCamps sessions cover a broad range from social media to technical development, content creation, revenue generation and more. Attendees will be guided by some of the most experienced practitioners in the country, which will be advantageous for all. We encourage everyone to register at OpenCamp today and join us at this event.
