SpringSource, a division of VMware, Inc., is renowned for its productive framework Grails. Grails is an advanced and innovative open source web application platform that delivers new levels of developer productivity by applying principles like Convention over Configuration.
ZK is the leading enterprise Ajax and Mobile framework. With its ground breaking Server+client Fusion architecture ZK provides the extreme productivity and security of event-driven server architecture that developers value, while enabling fine grained control at the client.
Both products are productive titans with SpringSource supported Grails increasing web developer productivity at the U.K.’s leading entertainment and communications company Sky.com by 400%, and Potix’s ZK increasing developer productivity at Sun Microsystems by 500%.
Today marks an amalgamation of both open-source productive stalwarts with the announcement of the latest version of ZK Grails combining the most productive Ajax framework available today, ZK, with the rapid development provided by Grails.
“Based on ZK, one of the leading RIA frameworks, ZKGrails adds and enhances its RIA development capabilities and seamlessly integrates it with Grails' infrastructure.” stated Chanwit Kaewkasi, the lead developer of ZK Grails. “This results in an advanced RIA framework featuring direct AJAX and convention-over-configuration.”
