May 12, 2006; 04:45 AM

Applibase announced an open source visual AJAX builder, called AppliBuilder, and online mashups creation service at datamashups.com. The service allows users to create mashup applications online, using a drag-and-drop visual builder.

AppliBuilder allows developers to quickly create useful web applications from a wide variety of visual components. With support for REST Web Services and SQL databases, AppliBuilder provides easy ways to collect and present data in web applications. This brings together the power of data integration and web components, and gives developers easy ways to create enterprise mashups, and other kinds of web applications.

"The promise of online web development with AJAX, where developers do not need to deal with setup and deployment effort, is now being realized," said Tony G. Thomas, CEO and founder of Applibase. "This can take development productivity for web applications to another level, more so when combined with the mashup approach to data integration applications."

In addition to the online mashup creation service, Applibase unveiled open-source tools for developers of data integration applications within the enterprise. The benefits of easy online development can now be brought into the enterprise, as a hosted AJAX development platform for data integration applications.
