iFlexweb have announed release of Flex developer.

Proficient in design and development of customized RIAs, Flex developer uses Flex 4 to create robust and cost-efficient rich internet applications.Flex 4 is the latest offering from Adobe and has a Spark architecture that gives Flex developer the flexibility to work with designers on common platform. This great feature allows the developers to deliver richer web applications in lesser time. The Flex 4 version supports the latest HTML5 and CSS3 technology, which increases the aesthetic look of the website.

Flex developer benefits from Flex 4’s ability to support 3D animation. This allows users to provide elegant multimedia effects so that the end users have a delightful experience.  Visitors can easily browse through interactive web pages and click on to host features to quickly grasp finer points of the product/services.

The other great benefit of Flex 4 is automated bug testing, which ensure complete removal of  bugs in minimal time. This reduces the testing time and enables the Flex developer at iFlexweb to speed up the rich internet applications development process.

The time saved, reduces the overall cost of the project development. The Flex developer finds the Flex 4 highly indispensable for creating robust, lively and cost-effective rich internet applications for the customers so that they can enhance their online business revenues and thus push up their ROI graph.

Software Research Inc., maker of the widely used eValid browser based web application suite, has announced a new Server Load Performance Testing tool for AJAX-based web applications.

Using eValid’s simultaneous launched test-enabled live web browsers, eValid can generate server load up to 1,000 browser users per machine and expand the scalability of load testing in the hundred of thousands, using computer cloud resources in sustained tests for many hours and at very low costs.

“Because eValid is built in a browser, when it runs a test on an AJAX application it appears completely real to the application servers. Running large numbers of eValid instances — we call them Browser Users (BUs) — using compute-cloud resources gives you the Holy Grail of AJAX Performance Testing: Real Users. You get high loads and you don’t have to spend a fortune to do it,” said Edward Miller, President of Software Research and eValid’s Chief Architect.

An upcoming Webinar “Cloud-Based AJAX Performance Testing“, scheduled for Wednesday, 23 June 2010, will show how an eValid user can record tests from life, make a few key script modifications to assure that they are LoadTest safe, lift them in 100-wide scenario partitions, and then run the 100-wide partitions on multiple very-large cloud-computers, collect data as the imposed server load ramps up, and display scenario-wide end-user perspective performance results.

Doloto is an AJAX application optimization tool, especially useful for large and complex Web 2.0 applications that contain a lot of code, such as Bing Maps, Hotmail, etc.  Doloto analyzes AJAX application workloads and automatically performs code splitting of existing large Web 2.0 applications.  After being processed by Doloto, an application will initially transfer only the portion of code necessary for application initialization.

The rest of the application’s code is replaced by short stubs — their actual function code is transferred lazily in the background or, at the latest, on-demand on first execution.  Since code download is interleaved with application execution, users can start interacting with the Web application much sooner, without waiting for the code that implements extra, unused features.

In our experiments across a number of AJAX applications and network conditions, Doloto reduced the amount of initial downloaded JavaScript code by over 40%, or hundreds of kilobytes resulting in startup often faster by 30-40%, depending on network conditions.
