This document discusses integrating XPages applications with collaboration tools like IBM Connections and IBM SmartCloud. The key benefits of integration are ease of use for users through a single interface, leveraging external resources, and enabling team collaboration by allowing users to see what colleagues are working on. Integration also provides up-to-date information and documents from a single source. Specific integration options covered include using XPages with IBM Connections Team Room for teamwork features like document sharing and task management. Demos also show integrating XPages with Connections and SmartCloud to utilize social capabilities and the Connections API.
