"To improve developer productivity, and easier access to server resources, the application should run on the server only" <facepalm> What a joke! Writing web applications is genuinely writing a distributed, client server system. There's really no reason to pretend that it's not! Also, how do you write an article about ajax frameworks and completely forget jquery??? "During testing by their users, it was discovered that the performance was unacceptable; users had to wait for more than 10 seconds for 10,000 records to be loaded. Even worse, some old computers actually stalled. Unfortunately, they had to implement load-on-demand to improve the performance issue. But, load-on-demand was never an easy job. It required determining the visible area at the client side, prompting required data from the server side, and rendering the data on the browsers. To fulfill this requirement, his team had to delay the project a few additional months. " are you kidding me??? a few months? I implemented lazy loading in flex in a week once. It's just paginating database results, there's never any reason to load 10K records to the client at once? Just a bunch of nonsense, through and through.
