The Astro Data Lab team at NOIRLab's Community Science and Data Center has recently deployed a new integrated Data Lab web portal (https://datalab.noirlab.edu). Its development was informed by several years of experience in operating a science platform with thousands of users, and feedback from volunteer testers. The portal provides capabilities to explore catalog and image holdings, hosts services for queries, remote file and database storage, supports SIA image search and cutout services, and fuses cleanly our data center holdings with the user's own datasets. Integration of a catalog cross-matching service, and of the AladinLite visualizer are the next development steps. We present the overall vision and execution of the new web portal, highlighting its capabilities, and the reasons behind some technical and design decisions.
