Hyfinity - The Gold Standard in Application Tooling for Enterprises who are Implementing SOA and Building Rich Composite Web Applications

In a report entitled: 'Hyfinity: Enabling Rich, Composite, Web Applications' (http://www.hyfinity.com/Hyfinity_MVC_Zapthink_Zapnote-ZTZN-1210.pdf) Jason Bloomberg, Senior Analyst - ZapThink, argues that Hyfinity have solved the need for a new class of tooling for Enterprise grade development of rich, composite web application development in SOA environments.

Birmingham, UK (PRWEB) May 9, 2007 -- Hyfinity, the innovative SOA Development Technology company, announced that in a recent report by the SOA specialist advisory firm ZapThink, their Rapid RIA technology was praised for delivering an innovative and effective approach that automates many of the mundane development tasks associated with traditional web development tools and frameworks.

For enterprises with complex web based development projects, this approach facilitates extremely significant business benefits such as dramatically reduced development time, effort and cost and significantly improved time to value in terms of application delivery for use by the business.

Hyfinity's Rapid RIA Builder technology has been successfully used by leading Global and Fortune 50 organisations as well as GIS and CRM technology companies. Markets range from UK Local Government, through Financial Services, Automotive to US Healthcare.

"Web application development is becoming increasingly complex, time consuming, and brittle. For many organizations, the addition of Rich Internet Application (RIA) technologies like Ajax look promising, but actually introduce further complexity into an already burdened application development process. In fact, traditional code-centric approaches to building applications aren't up to the task of keeping up with the new generation of rich, collaborative applications known broadly as Enterprise Web 2.0."

"What organizations seek is a declarative, document-centric approach to Internet application creation that leverages Services in the context of Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). Only by combining the agility that SOA provides with the rich user interfaces of RIAs can companies evolve their Web applications in a flexible, cost-effective manner. Rising to the challenge of providing adequate tooling for this new class of application is Hyfinity, which offers a combination platform and studio environment for building RIAs that consume and compose Web Services in the context of SOA. Hyfinity combines the best of both worlds - rich user interfaces and loosely coupled, agile Services in a straightforward, declarative environment that increases time to value and productivity for enterprise application creators."

"Model-driven, declarative, Service-oriented composite application creation is becoming the gold standard for application tooling for enterprises who are implementing SOA. Correspondingly, RIAs that leverage rich user interface technologies like Ajax have become their own gold standard for user interface development. Hyfinity, therefore, is in a prime position for evolving the current state of Web applications by combining these two highly useful and valuable sets of capabilities into a single approach to the market . . .Hyfinity is well-positioned as an RIA platform and toolkit that can enable enterprises to take full advantage of the expanding universe of Services available to them."

Commenting on the ZapThink report, Nigel Denham of Hyfinity said: "ZapThink are the leading advisory firm operating specifically in our space. Given their broad view of the SOA market we are naturally delighted that they have taken such a favourable view of our technology."
