Greg Murray, the AJAX architect for Sun Microsystems and recently a Java Rock Star, is the latest AJAX luminary to join the speaker faculty of
AJAXWorld Conference & Expo 2007 East the March 19-21, 2007 event that is shaping up to be the biggest-ever East coast event covering AJAX, Rich Internet Applications, and Web 2.0.
AJAXWorld Conference & Expo 2007 East is being held in New York City, at the historic Roosevelt Hotel in midtown Manhattan.
His session will be on Enterprise AJAX Using Java, and he will show how the emergence of AJAX and Web 2.0 does not require that we scrap all of our web applications, even though it does cause us to think differently in how we design and manage our applications and services.
Murray has been deeply involved in the AJAX movement through his participation in the OpenAjax Alliance and contributions to the Dojo Foundation's open-source JavaScript toolkit. Within Sun, he led a grass roots effort advancing the integration of client-side scripting with Java technologies and is the creator and principal architect of Project jMaki - a technology to enable JavaScript and Java to work together.
He contributed to the Java EE AJAX/Web 2.0 reference application and is also working the Java BluePrints and other teams at Sun on developing the best practices for enterprise AJAX and looking for ways to better integrate the Java and AJAX worlds.
Before taking on his current responsibilities, Murray was a member of the Java BluePrints team, within which he was responsible for the recommendations and guidelines for the Java Enterprise Edition Web technologies. He contributed to the design and implementation of the original Java Pet Store Demo and Java Adventure Builder reference applications. Prior to working with the BluePrints team, Greg worked on internationalization tools for the globalization group at Sun.
In addition to Murray's session on AJAX and Java at AJAXWorld 2007 East, delegates will hear and learn not only the history, process, and inspiration behind AJAX, they will also be helped to design actual AJAX applications using JavaScript, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), the Document Object Model (DOM) and XMLHttpRequest Object.
Delegates can hand-pick sessions from six tracks pitched at a a variety of levels from Beginner to Advanced. Rather than staying at the platform-agnostic level, developers and IT professionals will find among the 100+ sessions at AJAXWorld real-world examples in all the main server-side technologies such as PHP, Java, .NET and ColdFusion.
The first International AJAXWorld (a registered trademark of SYS-CON Media) Conference & Expo generated record press coverage for any i-technology event in the past 6 years. A quick search on Google News brought 410 stories filed under the keyword search "AJAXWorld." Typical of the coverage was the story from ADT Magazine, whose John K. Waters wrote, in a report titled "Nexaweb and JackBe Take Web 2 to the Enterprise":
"Last week's AJAXWorld Conference and Expo ... had the feel of an early JavaOne - which is to say, the place was positively quivering with possibility."
