Leveraging AJAX for Enterprise Application Development
Despite the fact that AJAX is making significant inroads within the Web 2.0 community, many enterprise applications still remain either traditional web or desktop applications. However, by effectively using AJAX, enterprises can develop compelling, innovative, and useful web based applications that increase employee productivity while retaining the manageability enjoyed by traditional web applications. This session will focus on the challenges of developing enterprise AJAX applications with an emphasis on overcoming the common hurdles and problems encountered along the way.
