Distributing various administrative tasks and portal content to one or more administrators or group of administrators is defined as Delegated administration.
It provides the following benefits:
1. Organize the administration framework according to business scenario.
2. Manage large-scale portal implementation security.
3. Provide a secure environment for change
The portal content catalog is organized in an hierarchical folder, thus enabling delegation of content and administration. Permissions are passed from one object to another in a hierarchical manner within the portal catalog. Permissions can be assigned to folders or portal objects in the portal catalog. The permissions of any given folder are automatically passed on to the objects contained in it.
Different levels of portal permissions:-
None – this permission is generally assigned to roles when they have to be accessed purely in the runtime context.
Read – it allows the PCD objects to be opened in read only mode, enabling either for search or browse.
Write – This permission is applicable to folders. It allows the users to create objects within the folder
Read/Write – read/write allows the user to add or remove child objects from a parent object and to edit the object properties. To copy any object read permission is sufficient. However, adding an object to a folder using paste or delta link requires read/write permission.
Full Control – Full control provides the ability to delete, cut, and edit the object properties.
Owner – Owner permission provides the ability to assign permission for and delete the object
OLTP and OLAP
OLTP – Online transaction processing system.
SAP, ORACLE, JD Edwards – vendors which provides predefined applications for automating a business.
SAP R/3 – OLTP. Day-to-day, month-to-month transactions were carried out using OLTP systems.
It supported very low database. Millions of transactions, the database gets full.
OLAP systems were introduced. Online analysis and processing systems.
Support very database. BIW systems
R/3- table format
OLAP – Cubic format – 3d format… analysis and processing was very much accurate than OLTP systems.

Netweaver Development Infrastructure (NWDI)
NWDI is basically for Developers who are working on Portal or J2ee engine. Developers are required for developing webdynpro application - j2ee engine and portal server.
It provides a team environment for developers working development landscape.. Infrastructure..
Components of NWDI:
DTR – Design time repository
CBS – Central Build Services
CMS – Change management system
SLD – System Landscape Directory
DTR – provides a central location for storing applications, software, software components or development components.
CBS – it stores or gives access to default libraries required for development software components.
CMS – its helps in transporting development components to different runtime systems.
1.Development system
2.Test Quality system
3.Consolidation system
4.Production system
It provides automatic transportation.
SLD – collection of systems in the organization.
