Presentations

OpenAjax Alliance - Driving Ajax Standards and Interoperability

Jon will provide an update on the latest news from OpenAjax Alliance, an organization of more than 80 leading companies and open source projects that are working together to define Ajax standards that promote Ajax interoperability and customer success.

The talk will explain the role of OpenAjax Alliance within the Ajax ecosystem and highlight its recent accomplishments and current activities. There will be a special focus on the OpenAjax Hub, the first major standard to emerge out of OpenAjax Alliance. The Hub is a small amount of client-side JavaScript that allows multiple Ajax toolkits to participate on the same Web page, such as within a mashup. The talk will also highlight other important activities at OpenAjax Alliance, such as standards activities around Ajax IDEs, Mobile Ajax, Ajax Security, Comet-based client-server communications, the OpenAjax Registry, and runtime performance monitoring.
