Five years ago the OpenAjax Alliance was founded with the intention of providing interoperability between what was quickly becoming a morass of AJAX-based libraries and APIs. Where is it today, and why has it failed to achieve more prominence? I stumbled recently over a nearly five year old article I wrote in 2006 for Network Computing on the OpenAjax initiative. Remember, AJAX and Web 2.0 were just coming of age then, and mentions of Web 2.0 or AJAX were much like that of “cloud” today. You couldn’t turn around without hearing someone promoting their solution by associating with...

The webification of applications over the years has led to the belief that client-server as an architecture is dying. But very few beliefs about architecture have been further from the truth. The belief that client-server was dying - or at least falling out of favor - was primarily due to fact that early browser technology was used only as a presentation mechanism. The browser did not execute application logic, did not participate in application logic, and acted more or less like a television: smart enough to know how to display data but not smart enough to do anything...

Over the holidays I did, as most folks I suspect, things I enjoy doing. For me, one of those things was playing around with Adobe's Flex using Flex Builder 3. Yes, I am that much of a geek. I was a bit concerned it would take some time to figure it all out, but after quickly realizing that MXML, Adobe's interface markup language, was close enough to XAML, Microsoft's interface markup language, it was pretty much smooth going. ActionScript is close enough to JavaScript and C and most other languages I'm familiar with so that...

As an application delivery solution provider focused on securing, accelerating, and optimizing web applications, we pay a lot of attention to web application development trends. Languages, environments, and technologies are all of significant interest because in many cases the decisions regarding development affect the security and performance of applications deployed in production. AJAX-based applications, for example, can have a significant impact on performance of the application and on the network (and vice-versa), so we pay attention to its adoption and use and are always looking for new ways to secure and accelerate applications using the technology. ...

After reading most of what's available on the Adobe Zero Day Exploit, and getting an idea of how it propagates (Flash and JavaScript inserted via an SQL injection attack), I turned to iRules guru Colin for some help crafting an iRule that might stop a site from serving up infected content to a user. This is particularly helpful for those who are running a BIG-IP but who aren't running a web application firewall like ASM (Application Security Manager) and may have been inadvertently infected.
After looking through the screen capture of some JavaScript that attempts to load the malware from...
