Abstract

Based on last years successful Jazoon session on how to build a "Weblog in 
15 minutes" using AJAX and JCR, this talk is the sequel in the "AJAX 
meets JCR" series.

In the meantime microjax has become a legitimate part of the Apache Sling 
project which is at the time of this submission in incubation.

This talk will focus on the unique benefits of using a combination of AJAX and 
JCR (aka. JSR-170 & JSR-283) to satisfy modern Web 2.0 application 
requirements and allow for an extremely agile application development.

To take last years "15-minute weblog" example to the next level we 
will talk about how microjax effortlessly complies with the real-life 
requirements of Search Engine Optimization (SEO), Back-button, Deep Links, WAI, 
Access Control, XSS protection, etc...

This session will be interesting for an audience that works in a general J2EE 
environment and is eager to learn how to build Web2.0 Applications in a very 
efficient way without leaving the traditional heavy-weight j2ee style backend 
resources.

The session overview looks as follows:

(1) The JCR elevator pitch
(2) microsling - JCR and AJAX
(3) The revenge of the microjax "weblog"
(4) The real-life: SEO, WAI, Backbutton, XSS, Access Control
(5) Q&A
