What is Web 2.0?Achieve Growth, Efficiency, and Collaboration with Web 2.0

• Enabling employees to be more productive, more knowledgeable, faster

• From a technology perspective, Web 2.0 uses AJAX, mashups, and feeds predominantly

• Mashups rated by Gartner as Top 10 Strategic Technology for 2008 http://www.gartner.com/it/page.jsp?id=530109

• Collaboration: Social networking (Facebook, LinkedIn)

• Simplification: Mashups, RIAs, Web services

• Situational applications: Leveraging enterprise data without necessarily having the full technical knowledge

Personalization becomes collaborative!

Web 1.0 vs Web 2.0


A “mashup” is a lightweight web application created by combining information or capabilities from more than one existing source to deliver new functions & insights.

� Rapid creation (days not months)

� Reuses existing capabilities, but delivers new functions + insights

� Requires less technical skills

� Often mixes internal and external sources

What is a Mashup?


What are “Mashable” Data Sources?

• Excel Spreadsheets

• Graphs - pie charts, line graphs, bar charts, etc.

• PowerPoint Slides – Org charts

• Maps (like Mapquest or Google)

• Web page (HTML or XML code)

• Widgets, These data types are sometimes called blocks, flakes or even gadgets

• Data Exported from a Data Base

• These are all existing data sources can be used as a new “data feeds” to the new applications that you are creating

� A widget is a small application or piece of dynamic content that can be easily added to a Mashup or Web Application

� Can be easily connected to each other (wiring)

� Widgets are called different names by different vendors: gadgets, blocks, flakes

What is a Widget


What is a Feed?

�A web feed is a data format used to publish information or data that is changes frequently

�Enterprise Data is very often expose as a feed

� Feeds can be created from different sources such as Enterprise, Departmental, Personal, or the Web


Why Mashups?


Everyone Needs to Lower The Cost Curve

How?

A new method is needed to lower cost

�Make reuse a fundamental tenant of application development�Speed delivery by dramatically reducing need to write code

�Support self-service development, freeing up central IT to work on more

strategic initiatives

Feed Generator


Quickly and Securely Unlock Information

Unlock enterprise, departmental, web and personal sources.

Out-of-the-box connectors to

common information

sources.Easily create

custom adapters for unique needs

or legacy systems

The Feed Generator provides the ability to create easily consumable feeds from a wide range of information sources - within minutes!


Transform, Mix, + Utilize Information

Mash multiple sources into net-new feeds

Fast and easy, but powerful, visual editor for precise control over information flows

Output in RSS, ATOM, XML, or JSON based on

consuming application or

widget

The Data Mashup Builder can re-mix, merge, group, sort, filter, and transform feeds in a variety of ways, creating a single view of disparate sets of information in minutes.


Quickly Create and Share New MashupsThe Mashup Builder supports rapid assembly and sharing of mashup pages and spaces – without coding!

Drag widgets onto the Mashup Page

Wire data between Widgets
