Case Study: Health Enclave - Health & Fitness Community Portal

The client is a health and wellness institute, and the requirement was to build an information portal with features to publish articles relating to health, lifestyles and wellbeing. A community forum was required for users to publish their views and attract comments. Also needed was a question answer forum with an expert panel answering user’s queries.

Baryons built the portal based on a Content Management System, customizing it to allow the customer complete control on the content as well as the specific functionality desired. Blogs were customized and integrated to meet the requirements of the community and expert forums. The customer was given a complete cloud hosted solution. Several features that they needed for easy administration were built e.g. the image sliders could just pick up images from a storage location which required implementation of a file browser for the cloud. Different image sequences could be scheduled to display at different times, most read and latest articles could be highlighted, some level of social network integration was implemented, along with several other such features.
