What ELEKS Did:
Built by ELEKS for the largest financial group in Ukraine, a nationwide consolidated web portal brings together information from news agencies and provides on-line services to the public. The main component of the web portal is a news aggregator, which assembles news from the largest Ukrainian media providers, such as UNIAN, Glavred, Kiev Newspaper, Telekritica, and many others. Besides that, the news aggregator automatically groups information assembled from different sources by various criteria, e.g. by geographical region or topic, based on built-in business rules. The processed tags and keywords are available in the cloud for the end-user convenience and provide an easy access to information. The web portal also serves as a source of information to other news web portals and web sites.
In addition to the news aggregator, users of the web portal can benefit from a number of useful tools available on-line, such as business calendars, diaries, financial and exchange rates, banking services, entertainment blocks, etc. The web portal front-end is managed through ELEKS CMS, an originally developed content management system, which allows to easily customize web pages look and feel and pages behavior via an easy-to-use WISIWUG editor.
