  any major negative aspects. It depends on the
  requirements of proposed technology solution.
• It is not the right solution for small size
  applications

  application does a little various forms of
  contents

The Ugly

• The little ugly side of Liferay DXP portal is
  lack of documentation and knowledge resources
  despite of active and efficient communities. This
  area is being worked upon though.
• Clustering feature is not available for community
  edition as of now, Liferay has announced to add
  it in near future though

  Liferay DXP have made this technology sufficient
  enough handle the modern day technological
  requirements as an enterprise portal solution.
  But, in IT sector, even the sky cannot be limit
