Vortal (computer science)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A Vortal is a special form of an internet-based information portal. Vortal is an acronym for "Vertical Portal". The term internet-based portal has been used for a long time. The special thing about a Vortal is the restriction to a restricted, specialized subject area. By focusing on a specific user group, Vortals can concentrate more on specific topics and present the content in depth. The accompanying information is also much more focused on the topic than on a portal. In addition, a Vortal is usually a B2B information system with a higher degree of networking of the integrated information.
