Companies to Host August 30 Webinar to Showcase 'Real-World' Mashups for Business
PALO ALTO, CA and BURLINGTON, MA-- Kapow Technologies and Nexaweb announced a partnership to
deliver on the promise of Enterprise Web 2.0, including composite, mashup
and other rich Internet applications (RIAs). The combination of Nexaweb and
Kapow Technologies enables an enterprise to create mashup applications that
improve efficiency, decision making, and productivity by allowing knowledge
workers to access and work with internal and external data in real-time,
regardless of location, browser, or OS via a Web.
The Kapow Mashup Server gives companies the ability to take any application
component with a Web interface and quickly and easily repurpose it into an
application involving Web-based content, data or business logic. The
Nexaweb Enterprise Web 2.0 Platform is a standards-based application
development and deployment solution that enables organizations to utilize
legacy, SOA and third-party data to create and deploy Ajax-based,
mission-critical business applications over the Web. Kapow Technologies and
Nexaweb solutions are perfectly complimentary, and can be implemented
together to deliver full-featured, composite applications that deliver
access to enterprise-data and third-party resources alongside productivity,
collaboration, and communications tools in a single, browser-based
application window.
"Information access is more important than ever in today's competitive
business environment," said David McFarlane, COO at Nexaweb. "To gain an
edge and truly empower a workforce, enterprises cannot only provide
real-time access to data behind the firewall. External data such as market
quotes, politics, world events, weather, traffic, and third-party analysis
and commentary can have significant impact on your business, and
consequently should be available to your workforce to help them make better
decisions, faster. We are excited to be working with Kapow Technologies to
offer customers a comprehensive Enterprise Web 2.0 solution at such a
competitive price point."
"We are pleased to be working with Nexaweb, because together, we enable
companies to develop powerful, new Web 2.0 solutions for enterprises at a
fraction of the time and costs associated with traditional application
development and integration," said John Yapaola, COO of Kapow Technologies.
"Both Nexaweb and Kapow Technologies are well established in the financial
services industry. Consequently, we are currently working together on
select projects to deliver high ROI for our customers."
Webinar Tomorrow
To further illustrate the power and the benefits of enterprise Web 2.0
solutions, Nexaweb and Kapow Technologies are hosting the following seminar
tomorrow:
Enterprise Mashups: A New Approach to Empowering the Knowledge Worker
Time: August 30, 2007: 11:00 a.m. PDT/2:00 p.m. EDT
Description: Everybody's doing the "mashup" thing, creating Ajax
applications that pair a Google map with some weather feeds, movie times
and restaurants. But the question most IT organizations have is: 'How can I
use mashups in the enterprise to solve real-world business problems?' In
the business world, there are real competitive advantages to be had for
those companies who can figure out how to access the wide variety of
enterprise and Web-based data sources available and then rapidly repurpose
that data to create incremental business value and get more done.
Join Kapow Technologies' CTO Stefan Andreasen and Nexaweb's chief architect
Bob Buffone for answers to this question and practical tips on how to build
"mashups" that deliver tangible business value.
