Notes:
- One point our customers have made to us is that they don’t just want point solutions. They want a complete infrastructure for developing and deploying Ecommerce applications. (Note: Positioning Netscape as a company that can supply the entire infrastructure is important as it helps eliminate some of the smaller players from the discussion. There are no X.500 vendors who also have an application server or a Certificate solution so helping customer understand why they want the entire infrastructure for building ecommerce applications can help eliminate these smaller, annoying competitors.)
- Talk about the requirements for an E-Commerce application. The slide is self explanatory here.
- For integration Services, note that these applications can’t exist in a vacuum. they have to be able to tie into the existing infrastructure. for this reason, all aspects of an E-Commerce Ready Infrastructure need to be able to integrate with legacy systems. For this announcement, we will be talking about our Directory and Security integration with existing directory and security infrastructure.
