SOA and RIA Together: Developing with Adobe Flex and Java

By: Victor Rasputnis; Yakov Fain; Anatole Tartakovsky

Jun. 5, 2006 09:00 AM

Rich Internet Applications are perfect for consuming enterprise services. As SOA evolves toward reusable components that can be accessed inside and outside of the corporate intranets, they need to provide outside developers with customizable pre-built components that can be easily integrated in composite applications. Adobe's Flex/Flash platform offers unique opportunities in both richness of the environment and global deployment accessibility.

In this session we will uncover all the layers of successful SOA integration for RIA applications - including communication, customization and UI layers. We will demonstrate how the binding of SOA with state-of-the-art clients improves appeal of business applications and reduces both development cost for the clients and operational cost for the service providers. We'll also demonstrate how to achieve a drastic reduction in the complexity of the development and testing processes and therefore of the time it takes.
