Portfolio DAM on a Mac

On-premise digital asset management (formerly Extensis Portfolio) · Media Asset Management

Portfolio DAM; formerly Extensis Portfolio, now made by Portfolio DAM LLC, a subsidiary of Axle AI; is an on-premise digital asset management server: catalogues of images, video, audio and documents with metadata, previews, galleries, watch folders (AutoSync), a vault, NetPublish sites and Adobe Creative Cloud panels (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop). Version 4.2 (November 2026) brought faster search, updated PostgreSQL and Java components and support for Windows Server 2025 and Windows 10/11; earlier 4.x releases also ran on Intel Macs (macOS 10.14–12; Apple silicon is not supported). Portfolio Web and the REST API listen on port 8090 (9443 with HTTPS), Portfolio Administration on 8091 (9453), NetPublish on 8085; the server keeps its own PostgreSQL (25432) and Elasticsearch (9200/9300). Licensing is an account-based subscription that needs outbound HTTPS to the licence server; a lapsed licence leaves the server read-only for a grace period. FrontierStack watches any number of Portfolio servers: REST API and Administration up, and; with a Portfolio user; server errors, catalogues and jobs, plus sign-in failures such as no free licence seat. Alerts and AI access; read-only.
