Custom blocks for Presto Wires
- Do we see mashups moving towards the flexibility & convenience of pivot tables to Excel? Is there an application that quickly assembles these disparate data sources?
- What web part in Sharepoint is used to access the mashlet? Also does the SP page update real time as and when the mashlet is refreshed with updated data?
- What is running in the Client Browser? Is there a local executable that gets deployed to the client PC?
- So, the mashups are a way for an individual in an enterprise to get what he wants from IT which he couldn't get because building an app for a single instance isn't cost effective for IT. But then you say that once the mashlet is built, thousands of users can use it. Sound like circular justification.
- Can you turn off the viral nature of the widget?
- Are mashlets output as JSF Components?
- What language does the mashlet use (flash, Ajax, etc)?
- Can the mashups be configured to accept push messages which will later reflect on the Mashlet live?
- Can I display a mashlet within a Silverlight control/application?
- Is there a way to extend the product with more chart types, e.g., to handle statistical process control chart?
- Can you please review what the outcome are of the mashup? RSS / GRID / CHART anything else? .. HTML?
- What kind of things NEED to be done via API instead of visually?
- Can widgets only be viewed on web browsers or is there support for programmatically accessing widget data from .NET or Java?
- How can Mashups, Wikis and CMSs be combined to take advantages of the strengths of each?
- If custom 'mashlets' have to be developed, what's the benefit of developing a mashup versus developing a web application using traditional tooling? Are there productivity benefits you've seen?
- So JackBe in not a ‘front end’. You are used for backend and data fusion?
- Can the widgets developed in JackBe be embedded into standard portal solutions like Sun or do then need to be accessed via the JackBe UI?
- What would it take to automatically update one mashlet based on input from another. We just saw an example that did not update.
- Can a badly-written mashlet hang other mashlets on the portal page?
- What is widget or gadget w.r.t Mashups?
- What is the difference between a mashup and a Portal? Don't they both just collect disparate data and present it in one central area?
- Can I display the mashlets in a Silverlight application?
- Does Presto integrate into other portal platoforms, e.g. Webcenter?
- So the Wires env is the runtime and each user will need to have it installed ? Is there a runtime env that runs in a browser ?
- Can I display a mashlet within a Silverlight control/application?
- How do you compare the Enterprise Mashups with Portals? Do Mashups replace Portals?
- Is it required to compile the mashup separately for its deployment into .Net and J2EE containers? Does it require separate code base?
- Beyond presentation (mashlets), how mashups can lead to leaner process automation by mixing info from different types of applications?
- What is the secret behind the mashlet being able to run in J2EE and .Net containers e.g. BEA Portal and SharePoint portal?
- Can you create a new generic mashlet similar to grid or chart and have it show up in the view?
- Can you have input fields in the Mashboard that feeds multiple mashlets on the dashboard?
- How much does the use of mashups increase storage need and capacity? It is obviously inherently dependent on how many... and how long they hang around or are for re-use... but is the impact huge?
- Are mashlets compatible with W3C widget specification?
- How do I install Presto MediaWiki Plugin?
- Can anyone share a mashup using the Salesforce.com API?
- Is there a sample mashup/mashlet included with the Presto Developer Edition 2.5?
