NDMC shows how enterprise situational applications
can work at AJAXWorld East
24 January 2008, NDMC – enterprise information management consultants – will be
presenting case examples at AJAXWorld East in New York 18-th-20th March.
NDMC will show how organisations can deploy trusted situational applications to service strategic information
management priorities. Case studies will include European deployments in the public and private sector with
examples covering compliance reporting, license management, competitive intelligence and streetworks.
The ethos of Encanvas has always been to simplify the creation of situational applications for groups of users with
specific needs that may have a short life span but have the capacity to sustain. These applications are often created
within the group where they are used. What has made this simplicity of use possible has been the development of
a strong library of pre-built building blocks (that Encanvas call ‘design objects’) so that users can point-and-click to
create new situational applications combining user interface and portal design, business logic, data management
and output.
The new version of Encanvas provides a richer set of tools for database creation and enterprise integration with
drag-and-drop formation of data feeds from all sources; providing capabilities you would expect from a
heavyweight Enterprise Integration Application (EAI) environment. Andrew Lawrie, Encanvas’s CTO says, “Our
clients have made it clear that they want more integration options. Whether it’s linking to legacy systems or
bridging across RSS feeds, document repositories and intranets, they want to be able to painlessly gather data from
anywhere. Within the applications they build, they might also want to create new databases, temporary data marts
or simply use web services to put an agile layer over their existing databases. The new release of Encanvas delivers
this through its code-free drag and drop development environment.”
Another key feature of the new release is the introduction of asynchronous communications and the possibility of
collaboratively developing situational applications over the internet via a standard web browser without needing
downloads or plug-ins. Managing Director Nick Lawrie says, “It’s been on our agenda for some time to move the
core platform of Encanvas into the realm of a collaborative workspace environment for remote working. There are
many situations that demand collaboration and the shared use of information today that are poorly served by
desktop sharing tools that are demanding on platform resources. Encanvas has always been about ZERO
download, INSTANT on and with our asynchronous capabilities we’re still honouring that.”
NDMC will be showing how corporations can create trusted enterprise scalable situational applications (sometimes
called Enterprise Mashups) at AJAXWorld East in March hot on the heels of the new 1. 7.2 release.
Ends.
