NetUnity Software releases the WSRP .NET Framework.

Company makes framework for building WSRP portlets using .NET available for immediate purchase.

(PRWEB) August 17, 2004 -- NetUnity Software, a private Virginia-based software company, today announced the release of its product for developing WSRP compliant portal-based business solutions using the Microsoft .NET Framework. The NetUnity WSRP .NET Framework allows businesses to build portal-based business solutions based on the recently published OASIS web service standard that promotes plug-and-play interoperability among portals and portal components - Web Services for Remote Portlets (WSRP). IT organizations, application vendors and content providers can avoid portal vendor lock-in, proprietary interfaces and specific operating environments by developing solutions based on WSRP.

Once the domain of Java and Java based portals and portlet frameworks, businesses and developers now have the freedom to choose between using .NET, Java, or both, to develop WSRP applications and content. The WSRP .NET Framework made it very easy to build WSRP portlets using .NET for the IBM WebSphere Portal", said Kenneth Wilson, Project Manager at Perficient. Using the NetUnity WSRP .NET Framework, companies can now leverage .NET to build solutions that work with any portal platform supporting WSRP.

The WSRP .NET Framework is a comprehensive portlet development framework supporting the WSRP 1.0 specification for building compliant applications and content solutions based on XML standards and a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). Verified against the major portal vendors, the framework includes an extensive class library and Visual Studio Wizards to help you easily create WSRP producers and portlets. The framework does not require the installation of a portal or employ the use of proprietary services and content management systems. The NetUnity WSRP .NET Framework is available for evaluation or immediate purchase.
