Glassfish Web Space Server 10.0 previously known as Project WebSynergy is Sun's next-generation portal server platform. It comes with 100+ ready to use portlets and an extensible framework which helps to build a unified and customizable website within few days.

The evaluation bundle includes 3 sample portals which are based on 3 of the most common use cases for this product.

  • CMS Sample – Typically designed for a publishing house.
