Next generation Rich Internet Applications - Parleys.com case study

Rich Internet Applications (RIA) have become a mainstream buzzword - But what does it mean for Enterprise Java developers? Based on the Parleys.com case study (a next generation RIA e-learning platform) this presentation takes a closer look at which Java technology-based APIs and frameworks are available for developing such a project, addressing the technical opportunities on both the server- and client-side.

Stephan will walk you through the RIA landscape: Companies like Sun Microsystems, Google and Adobe offer you all kinds of solutions, but how do you stitch them together? Which communication strategy should you use? How do you prepare your Java server code so it can address different multi-channel clients? These, and more RIA-related questions, will get answered during this presentation.
