Enterprise mashups are now ready for it's prime time. Industry analysts are expecting this technology to be picked up by 2009 and then peak at 2013. Enterprise mashup can be divided into 3 segments or flavors - presentation mashup , data mashup and process mashup.SOA can be positioned well for last two segments. Currently SOA composition is very much a wired model [ SCA or ESB ] but if we can

A great introduction to enterprise mashup from John Crupi, CTO of Jackbe ,a mashup vendor. The connection between mashup and the enterprise SOA is explained very nicely here. See the video to understand what is enterprise mashup ?

The conference went very well with so many great sessions. Nortel presented their idea moving up in value chain by providing communication building blocks so that different solution provider can "mashup" those components to build the solutions.My presentation and SAP's presentation on mashup in middleware very well accepted. People raised skepticisms about IT politics in enterprise which may not

SaaS based applications continue to grow at a staggering rate. According to software market analysts, SaaS represented approximately 5% of business software revenue in 2005 and, by 2011, 25% of new business software will be delivered as SaaS and will grow at a 21% % annual growth rate (CAGR) during the next four years.As the acceptance and popularity of SaaS applications has continued to rise

I got a chance again to speak about my "enterprise mashup" framework in another technology conference. I am really glad that they gave me an opportunity to speak about it in front of all the industry and std. leaders.

ESB can be enabler of SOA Grid. ESB can be used to "gridify" SOA activities - a complete BPEL process , complex event processing or expensive DB transaction. Thus ESB can play a role of SOA computational grid framework.Designer simply attach annotation to a SOA task and ESB make sure that the task execution will be grid enabled.

Today I presented enterprise mashup with SOA. People were little sceptical about inclination of enterprise user to build their own application. But I guess when current facebook users will join the workforce even as a business user, what we can expect ?People asked few questions about how to use this technology in conjunction with Portal/Reports. Overall people were liked the idea eve if they are

First day at the conf was really exciting experience. Talked to very interesting people about very interesting technology. Particularly , Tibco's Ajax framework was quite impressive. I don't think anything remained to done to provide same user experience in browser as in desktop. Nexaweb's technology also quite appealing.

This is very interesting enterprise mashup usecase featured in WSJ [ tuesday , July 31 , 2007] :Developers at Audi recently built a mashup that helps product managers for the company's A-series line of autos perform competitive analyses.

I managed to get some time and thoughts after a long break. Thoughts are about scalability of enterprise mashup - mashup grid.Space based architecture [SBA] can be followed to make mashup development platform grid enabled and thus more scalable , available which is MUST for any enterprise ready products. There are few nice blogs from a vendor on SBA.Mashup grid powered with Functional

We have played enough with mashups of google maps and flickr photos. But how this new technology can help enterprises or more specifically how mashup can be used to reduce the famous "enterprise information overload".Mashup seems to be a new found way of finding information in right form (presentation) i.e. craigslist rental apartments in google map or with flickr photos. But recently people

Analysts are predicting that enterprises are going to embrace mashup technology in a big way in this year. See this blog from ZDNet analyst , http://blogs.zdnet.com/Hinchcliffe/?p=78.Few companies are doing great job in making the adoption process very smooth with their innovative product.

"Situational applications" are a way for people with domain expertise to create applications in a very short time without much IT involvement. These applications can be created just-in-time by empowered enterprise business users and by simply combining SOA enabled information sources and services or SOBAs [Service Oriented Business Application] on the Intranet and Internet.Please see an detailed
