Catching a Web 2.0 Wave


Visual Assembly Studio now GA



January 15, 2008 — 
Web 2.0 application tool creator WaveMaker Software, formerly ActiveGrid, released the WaveMaker Visual Assembly Studio and the WaveMaker Rapid Deployment Framework for enterprise Web 2.0 applications.

The Visual Assembly Studio, announced in mid-December, uses drag-and-drop assembly of AJAX widgets, databases and Web services. It is available for free via download. The tool provides developers with a visual environment to create Web applications without complex code or portal frameworks, company officials said. WaveMaker claims that the studio has accelerated the development of applications by as much as 67 percent and cut lines of code written by 98 percent. This dramatically smaller codebase, officials claimed, means that visually assembled applications are cheaper to maintain and easier to manage.

Web applications built with the WaveMaker Visual Assembly Studio can then be deployed with the WaveMaker Rapid Deployment Framework onto Java application servers, including Apache Tomcat and Java EE servers from BEA Systems, IBM, Red Hat and Sun Microsystems. The Rapid Deployment Framework is commercially licensed. Full installations of the WaveMaker Rapid Deployment Framework start at around US$25,000.

“We are pleased with the positive feedback we received from those who have participated in our beta program,” said Christopher Keene, CEO of WaveMaker, in a prepared statement. “The Visual Assembly Studio and Rapid Deployment Framework provide developers with a solution to quickly develop and deploy applications on any Java platform with significantly less code—dramatically improving business productivity while still complying with core IT standards for security, data and governance.”
