The old black text type screens of the mainframe world have been replaced in the last 10 to 15 years with client server and web based infrastructures for such applications. Currently, applications that need real time or near real time large volume data manipulation by means of multiple mechanisms manifest as desktop UIs, perhaps written originally in technologies like C++ and PowerBuilder and subsequently replaced by Java Swing and C#. Net. At the same time, most of the reporting, data entry and query application UIs are built with web technologies from the Java, Microsoft or the PHP camp. In these application development endeavors, while the users have gained by the availability of better user interfaces, the wheel has been reinvented many a times, at high costs, with lots of effort and prolonged implementation of workaround for pesky problems arising out of the constraints posed by the technologies. Developers, across organizations have built similar widgets and service components again and again. Part of the problem has been the lack of out of the box availability of such widgets. Widgets which are not final packaged and baked products but which are the flexible components that provide APIs and channels for easy integration and assembly.

 Now with the emergence of web2.0, which we believe is the pervasion of enhanced web protocols, asynchronicity, event driven architectures, service oriented frameworks, rich media and collaboration into the realm of traditional request-response round trip text based models, newer generation of widgets and service components for financial applications can be built. These widgets promise to be performant and rich in functionality while providing interfaces for easy integration. Such widgets would provide the best of both the desktop and the web technologies and provide the benefits of zero install secure global access from multiple user agents and business benefits through productivity gains. Further, it would help reduce the effort and cost associated with GUI development as the focus would move from building such components to reusing them by assembling them.

 Saven is bringing its expertise in the domain of finance and the user interface technologies and building such reusable and easily integrable user interface widgets and components. If you want to leap to the future in a cost effective manner this is one of your best choices. If you are not a concern that builds financial applications but needs widgets of this type, you are here to gain as well. Customization and extension of these widgets and components is not only possible but easy and effortless.
