Nexaweb to Introduce AJAX Developer Edition


Nexaweb Platform Expands Flexibility of Rich Internet Application (RIA) Development with Ajax Capabilities

April 11, 2006; 03:16 AM
Nexaweb Technologies, Inc., provider of the leading standards-based framework for building and deploying enterprise-class Rich Internet Applications (RIAs), today announced it will expand the capabilities of the Nexaweb Platform with the addition of an Ajax client. Nexaweb's expanded RIA platform will enable enterprises with the ability to generate Internet (HTML) applications using Ajax (DHTML/JavaScript) technology. The Ajax client will be available to developers in Q2 2006, with additional versions available by the end of the year.

"By incorporating Ajax capabilities into its powerful RIA platform, Nexaweb continues to demonstrate its commitment to open standards-based RIA development," said Jason Bloomberg, Senior Analyst, ZapThink, LLC. "Nexaweb's expanded platform gives developers the freedom to select and use different technologies, easing system integration, application maintenance and asset protection."

Nexaweb's Ajax-based offering for developing and deploying RIAs will address key issues and limitations associated with current Ajax development, including:

-- dependency on scripting and manual coding;

-- lack of visual drag and drop development environment;

-- lack of rich user interface or incremental update capability;

-- the excessive use of JavaScript that breaks the well-established "markup + logic" design pattern that separates user interface from application logic; and

-- code maintenance and team development challenges associated with JavaScript.

"The Nexaweb Platform powers ARTstor's feature-rich, image-based Digital Library application. We benefit from ease of development and deployment, without compromising functionality or requiring client configuration or installation," said John Justin, Director of Development of ARTstor. "The addition of Ajax to the Nexaweb Platform represents the next generation of Nexaweb's flexible development capabilities."

"Today's enterprises seek greater development flexibility -- precisely the reason we're extending the Nexaweb Platform with Ajax capabilities," said Coach Wei, CTO and Chairman of Nexaweb. "With Ajax development on the rise, particularly for HTML and consumer-facing applications, our support of Ajax enables developers to create high-performance RIAs using the technology of their choice, and ensures ease of development and ease of maintenance."
