Liferay Inc, an open source Java portal company, has just released a new version of its offering that adds new Ajax mashup capabilities, plus links to workflow engines and enterprise service buses.
Version 4.2 adds a new Google Maps portlet which can be used as the basis for mashups. It has also improved links with Alfresco, an open source federated content management system designed by the much of the team that first developed Documentum. With the link, you can publish content in Alfresco through the Liferay portal. That's possible because both tools support JSR 168, the Java standard for portlets.
Another key new feature is support for ServiceMix JBI container. ServiceMix is a JBI-compliant implementation of a container that can be transported through an ESB. The idea of including support of ServiceMix is to enable portlets to tie into a distributed SOA environment. For instance, with the link into an ESB, a portlet could call on a business process that is represented using the JBPM Java standard.
