COPY PASTE

For Visual Basic or Delphi experienced developer, programming java enterprise using a drag-and-drop tools is like a dreams come true. I am looking for a long time in searching, until i found this real JavaEE RAD Tool: WaveMaker.

Is This The Right Tool?

Yes it is. I already using it for two of my commercial projects using WaveMaker Community Edition. It is like magic when you develop Spring-Hibernate-Dojo applications using a drag-and-drop paradigm. Looks like a rendezvous with my Delphi 7 a looong time ago.

Who Should Use WaveMaker?

Non-expert java enterprise developer will get most benefit using WaveMaker. It is also support cloud deployment in an easy way.

How Does WaveMaker Compare to Spring Roo and Grails?

Grails, Spring Roo and WaveMaker are RAD tools which help with building Web applications quickly. But each of them targets a different audience. Spring Roo tries to make Java developers more productive by doing most of the configuration stuff and scaffolding a Web application from JPA entity model. Spring Roo's target audience is Java developers who will maintain the applications generated by it and can extend them whenever required. On the other hand, WaveMaker tries to help non-Java experts or non-programmers build Web applications. Going forward, you might expect close alignment between Spring Roo and WaveMaker, leading to consistent architecture between Spring Roo and WaveMaker applications.

What About WaveMaker Cloud Support?

WaveMaker allows you to deploy applications created using WaveMaker to all the major cloud service providers. Some of thesecloud providers are Amazon EC2, Rackspace Servers, Eucalyptus Cloud, etc. The acquisition of WaveMaker strengthens the VMware cloud application platform strategy. Just last week VMware launched its open PAAS called "CloudFoundry," which lets you deploy and scale your applications in seconds. So, you can develop your Spring-managed application using WaveMaker and deploy it to CloudFoundry.
