InfoQ.com is a next generation web app/portal implementation combining the latest advancements in portal technology (JSR 170) and web development (WebWork, Spring, AspectJ, DWR).

This session will walk the viewer through the good, the bad, and the ugly of building InfoQ.com. Walk with us from initial requirements (or lack theoreof), designs, implementation choices, and deployment issues, and all the lessons learned along the way.

The talk will examine some of the most interesting features of the site and show their implementation in the web layer, domain model, and DB. The audience should expect an educating and revealing presentation on how to transition from standard web development paradigms to modern tag-driven CMS approaches.
