While HTML5 is mostly about evolution, some of the features in the Connectivity and RealTime area are, in fact, pretty revolutionary. Combining the power of socket connections for protocol communication, rich graphics, and offline capabilities makes it possible for web apps to be on par, or even better than, desktop applications.

This is precisely what makes HTML5 so compelling. HTML5 is making the web more interactive and in the quicker. It also reduces the need for middleware with HTML5. Peter will explore what some of the major new feature areas are when it comes to HTML5 connectivity and real time and how those are changing how you will build modern web apps.

Programming the meat of your JavaScript application is the most productive and lucrative element for any development team. Typically, the last 10 percent of the development effort administration tools, permission architecture, accountability, logging, etc. prove to be the most tedious, and usually end up taking 90 percent of the time allotted for the project. Learn how Viewbiquity Data Objects make that 10 percent substantially easier, while decreasing training time for the adminstrators managing your applications. And, once your JavaScript application is complete and generating anywhere from thousands to even billions of data points, tools must be used to visualize and analyze this information. Learn how simple it is to deal with huge data sets using Viewbiquity Automated Data Layers REST and JavaScript APIs.
