This is the home of a number of sub-site web applications that integrate with the University of Bristol's web content systems,
ie the CMS, Portal, PURE, or any other site (technical details)

The people profiler allows you to edit your public profile for display on your department's
and / or research theme's website.

staff listing or research profile.

Note: If your site is not available then you will need to contact your site administrator regarding maintaining your details via the main university CMS
There is some technical documentation and training materials related to this system available, there is also the page help, within the edit screens - which can be edited by site administrators.
General database reporting tool
News site for URL based querying
It can be used for web applications that use the datahub or other data sources and integrate with
the University CMS, Portal and any other web site as required.
It was designed to cater for plugging in custom functionality to institutional level systems
(ie ones unsuited to departmental / non-generic customisations).
So providing customisation and small application development features without being tied to the increasingly large range of diverse bespoke systems the University has procured - in terms of development and ongoing maintenance costs.
Any web site design can be replicated around DBMS content, or it can be served to them via syndication formats - RSS, XML etc.
Any data source can be connected to and modelled with its extended object relational / nosql mapper tools, for edit or display. Schema migration and automatic form generation features greatly simplify dependency maintenance.
