Backbase Unveils its Strategy on Rich Internet Application Software: “New Generation Web Applications”
Backbase has unveiled its strategy for developing Rich Internet Applications in a totally new manner, yet based entirely on current web and internet standards (W3C).
Amsterdam, (PRWEB) May 19, 2005 -- Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) utilize
client-side resources to provide the user with responsive and application-like
behavior in the web browser. Until recently, developing RIAs required
significant bandwidth capacity and installation of proprietary
plug-ins.
Backbase is the first-to-market company offering RIA
development software that is based entirely on web and internet standards and
that does not require users to install plug-ins.
The Backbase technology
embraces and extends web standards like XHTML, CSS, JavaScript and XML.
Additionally it increases developer productivity as developers can leverage
their current skills to create RIAs with Backbase technology.
The
Backbase Rich Internet Application software has the following
differentiators:
• Full commitment to web and internet standards (XHML, CSS,
JS, XML, DOM);
• Cross-browser compatibility which creates a consistent user
experience;
• No plug-ins required for users/visitors of the application or
website;
• Use of a descriptive language for defining the Graphical User
Interface;
• Complete environment for developing a browser-based
presentation-tier.
Editions are available for JAVA and .NET.
Backbase
recently launched their new corporate web site, which showcases the capabilities
of Rich Internet Applications via the site itself and a collection of
demos.
More detailed information on Backbase RIA vision can be found in a
whitepaper that is available for download: http://www.backbase.com (Title: Backbase: “Ajax and
Beyond”).
