Hi Surya,

MCMS does not provide such features out of the box.
Either implement it manually as with any other ASP.NET application or
integrate with CommerceServer using MSIB.

Cheers,
Stefan

It is possible, out of the box, to provide role-based views of the
content by creating different subscribers groups that have access to
different channels within the site. Combine this with a summary page
that returns results across all channels the current user has access to
and you can provide the impression of a semi-personalized experience
(again, based on role and not preferences or explicit content choices).
For example, I was on a team that developed a pharmaceutical site that
showed different content to patients, doctors and pharma reps based on
what subscriber group they belonged to -- the navigation and content
both changed based on their membership.

Beyond that, you'll definitely have to seek an outside solution to
surfacing content based on more individual preferences. Keep in mind
that you'll need some way of tagging content with meta data inside of
MCMS so that your personalizetion mechansim can find it for the user.
