Eclipse RAP (Rich Ajax Platform) 1.0 to be launched today

The Eclipse Foundation is scheduled to launch the Eclipse RAP (Rich Ajax Platform) 1.0 today.

This AJAX server has been designed to enable development and deployment of rich internet applications.

This platform is based on the OSGi (Open Services Gateway initiative) standard and the developers say that it would enable development of component-based applications that can integrate with existing systems.

This platform is being provided for no charges.

Jochen Krause, project leader for RAP at Innoopract spoke about this new product: “The benefit is many developers know to write Java code. If you look at enterprise IT, you find very few people that are seasoned in JavaScript. Our key strength is we can use the Eclipse component model.”
