By Mark SigalJuly 12, 2011 A confluence of factors, most notably the crash of the dotcom bubble and the rise of Apple, led to the consumerization of IT. But Mark Sigal says tablet makers are missing a golden opportunity by ignoring the enterprise. Knowledge management in the age of social media

Getting Real with LCDS 3, Part 2By Justin ShackletteDecember 8, 2009 In Part 1, we experienced the joy of model driven development and built a complete LCDS 3 backend using the new Modeler plugin. Amazingly, no Java was needed to create a full production-ready backend. In Part 2, we will build a complete Flex 4 frontend while exercising some of the cooler client-side LCDS 3 features along the way. And once again, I won't skimp on the details. Getting Real with LCDS 3, Part 1By Justin ShackletteDecember 1, 2009 Enterprise RIAs are big, and not the "big-in-Japan" kind of big, but big as in I use one every day. New apps are born almost daily and buzz across the blogosphere. It's usually dashboard-this and data-viz-that, but every once in a while we get an amazing look-ma-I-made-a-heat-map. Flex frontends power many of the richest RIA's, and Adobe's LiveCycle Data Services has always been known as a robust enterprise backend. But the forthcoming LCDS 3 is something different and something wonderful. To me, LCDS 3 changes the game, and I fully expect the richest of the next generation enterprise RIAs to have LCDS 3 under the hood. In the quest to ease the pain of enterprise development and empower the developer, Adobe has turned to Model Driven Development. Adobe's vision for MDD can be succinctly described as a point-and-click tool conveniently packaged as a Flash Builder 4 (aka Eclipse) plugin that can be seamlessly married to an LCDS backend. The software is still beta, so beware of the occasional bug, but for me the future is clear. In this article, we will build a "real" application while exercising some of the cooler features of LCDS 3 along the way. And check this out: we won't need to write any server-side code! Client-side Error Logging ArchitectureBy Tom BarkerAugust 9, 2009 In one of my previous articles I spoke about the need for client-side error logging.

By Caitlyn MartinAugust 6, 2009 The whole time the dispute between the CentOS developers was in the news development moved forward and patches were released. CentOS was never a one man show. It was perhaps in danger of forking or a name change but it never really was anywhere near point of death. Open Source is Infiltrating the Enterprise
By James TurnerJuly 7, 2009 There's a persistent perception that open source software is being ignored in the enterprise, that they fear it and it ends up being more costly to deploy than proprietary solutions. That's certainly the perception that some major software vendors would like you to have. But it's Jeffrey Hammond's job to dispel those perceptions, at least when they aren't accurate. As an analyst for Forrester Research, Hammond covers the world of software development as well as Web 2.0 and rich internet applications, so he sees how open source is being used on a daily basis. He'll be speaking at OSCON, O'Reilly's Open Source Conference, talking about the true cost of using open source, and he gave us a sample of what's going on in the enterprise at the moment. Pre-OSCON, Free Webcast Lineup (and a special offer)

By Timothy M. O'BrienApril 22, 2009 What does the Oracle/Sun merger mean for Java? There's been a lot of speculation and a fair amount of apocalyptic, "sky is falling" Twitter activity, but does anyone really know what Ellison has in store for Java? You ain't gonna need what?
By Mike LoukidesApril 8, 2009 One of the defining characteristics of the Rails movement has been its willingness to throw out the rules by which software developers and consultants have typically worked. Those rules typically produce big, overblown projects laden with features that no one ever uses--but which sounded good during the project specification phase. Build the simplest thing that could possibly work, and... Enterprise Development with FlexBy Yakov FainFebruary 2, 2009 This is my first blog at InsideRIA and I’m glad to be here.

Video Based Enterprise Ajax Training
By Andre CharlandAugust 23, 2008 Dave Johnson, Alexei White and I have finally completed our video training series on Ajax development for high performance and large scale Ajax UIs. We took the book, Enterprise Ajax, we wrote last year and then recorded just over 8hrs worth of Ajax training.
