While at the Adobe Industry Analyst Summit this week, I caught up with Matthias Zeller. Having been at Adobe for sometime, he’s had an interesting history with RIAs from the work he did with SAP (where he’s a mentor) and now onto the Adobe Genesis project (see blog too) that he’s been working on in recent times. As Matthias says, he’s been traveling around to talk with customers a lot recently, specifically around how they use and would like to use portals and situation applications.
Ever since talking with James Ward back in episode #41, I’ve been keeping an eye on how RIAs might could be used for portals. In going over the customer conversations he’s been having, Matthias gives us a pretty good idea. He uses the term “composite RIA” several times, which is a nice follow-on from the “mashup” and “situation application” phrasings.
Disclosure: Adobe is a client.
Sweet! Enterprise RIAs are really catching on. And since every enterprise app eventually needs a portal or needs to be put into a portal, this is a good topic to be covering. 🙂
