Technology box as an interface to the webcms of the TUD
What is the technologyportal-box?
The technology portal box is the interface between the WebCMS of TUD and the DRESDEN Technology Portal (DTP).
Why would I need a technologyportal-box?
With the help of the Technology Portal Box, entries on devices and services from the DRESDEN Technology Portal can be provided automatically and synchronously on the websites of the TUD Dresden University of Technology. Changes in the DTP are thus automatically displayed in the technology portal box, so that the information provided is always up-to-date and time-consuming. Doubling maintenance in two systems (data redundancy) is no longer necessary.
