IBM Mashup Starter Kit
by Farooque Shaheen 10 Oct '07

What is IBM Mashup Starter Kit? How useful it could be for you! IBM Mashup Starter Kit is a preview of a new Web 2.0-based mashup platform that empowers business professionals to rapidly get the information they need, no matter where it resides. This toolkit enables users to assemble their own Web 2.0 mashup applications, solving business problems without aid from information technology (IT) specialists. IBM Mashup Starter Kit consists of two technologies: IBM Mashup Hub and QEDWiki. IBM Mashup Hub is a mashup server that stores information feeds (such as in RSS, ATOM, or XML formats) in order to enable reuse and collaboration. Mashup Hub can also merge, transform, filter, annotate, or publish information in new formats. From there, the newly-enhanced QEDWiki serves as the user interface and allows non-IT users to "mash" information from any data source in order to create a single view of disparate sets of information in minutes. Please visit following URL to download. http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/tech/ibmmsk/download Thanks & Regards, Farooque Shaheen, Keane India Pvt Ltd +1-925-831-1676 Ext 40366 (VOIP) +91-80-26678388 Ext 4105 (Tel) -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
